Fleury grabs sole possession of 6th on all-time wins list
by Sean O'Leary from on (#4X95P)
Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury ended his decade making history.
With Tuesday's 5-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks, Fleury passed Curtis Joseph on the NHL's all-time wins list to earn sole possession of sixth place with 455. He made 26 saves in the victory.
Here's where the 35-year-old stands on the all-time ranks:
Rank | Player | Wins |
---|---|---|
1 | Martin Brodeur | 691 |
2 | Patrick Roy | 551 |
3 | Roberto Luongo | 489 |
4 | Ed Belfour | 484 |
5 | Henrik Lundqvist | 458 |
6 | Marc-Andre Fleury | 455 |
Fleury is in hot pursuit of Lundqvist, the only other active goaltender ahead of him on the list. He trails the Swedish netminder by just three wins.
Tuesday's victory was Fleury's 80th with the Golden Knights. He claimed 375 wins over a 13-year stint with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
