Lundqvist ties Hasek for 12th on all-time wins list
by from on (#25S5T)
Henrik Lundqvist will soon stand alone among European goaltenders.
The New York Rangers star won his 389th game Sunday, a 3-2 decision over the New Jersey Devils in a shootout, tying another legend in the wins column - Dominik Hasek.
| Goalie | GP | W | L | T/OT-SO L | SV% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hasek | 735 | 389 | 223 | 95 | .922 |
| Lundqvist | 709 | 389 | 237 | 73 | .920 |
The two 'keepers are level - for the time being - at No. 12 on the all-time wins list, with 11 Canadians in front of them. What Hasek has that Lundqvist doesn't is two Stanley Cup rings.
Up next for Lundqvist on the ladder: Chris Osgood (401 wins), Grant Fuhr (403), and Glenn Hall (407)
Only two goalies have won 500 or more: Martin Brodeur (691) and Patrick Roy (551).
The King, eventually, will be the third.
