WAYNE, NJ -- The start of August marked the conclusion of the Brodeur Hockey School's summer camps. Founded by former New Jersey Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur's son Anthony and his wife Abby, the couple's mission is To not only carry on a family legacy but to continue their passion and develop the game of hockey. The camp was held from July 23 to 26 in West Orange, New Jersey, at the Richard J Codey Arena. The following week, it moved to the Ice Vault in Wayne. Kids ages 8 - 14 participated in the camp, which included two hours of on-ice training, one hour of off-ice conditioning, one hour of activity/ chalk talk, and a virtual Martin Brodeur Q&A. Once things wrapped up, the now Devils' Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations shared photos from the camp with the caption, Great time @brodeurhockeyschool seeing and speaking to the next generation of goalies! Thanks to all the kids and parents for participating in the camp. Anthony Brodeur was drafted by the Devils in 2013 in the seventh round but did not sign an entry-level contract.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
