VIDEO: Lamoriello roasts Bettman during Brodeur retirement ceremony

New Jersey Devils fans expressed two very different yet similar sounding sentiments during Martin Brodeur's retirement ceremony.

When NHL commissioner Gary Bettman was announced, boos rained down from the stands. But when Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Lou Lamoriello - the builder of the Devils' three Stanley Cups backstopped by Brodeur - came to the podium, fans broke out with "Louuuuuuu."

And Lamoriello made sure to point out the difference.

Being booed is old hat for Bettman, who took the joke in stride.
