Middlebrook was a perennial minor leaguer during his entire pro career, bouncing around with 5 different NHL teams/systems,
and retiring in 1986...
Wait a second... Lemme take another look at his picture...
Yeah, as I started preparation to write this page earlier, I noticed that he was a right handed catcher (Chico Resch calls it the
"funny hand") and did a double take. That's a rarity for Devils goalies. In fact, the only other right-handed catching goalie they've
had was Mike McKenna. By strange coincidence, Middlebrook did coach McKenna when he was living in St. Louis.
