Yeah, barring a freefall, we're locked into a first round with them. They're not trading with us this year.

If he hits UFA and wants us, I doubt we'd do that 13M number. I might like it, if only because it forces a move on Palat and Dougie. Maybe even Mercer. But after Luke, we're close to the limit on top end guys and I question a continuing cap rise into what's looking like a very tough global economy.
 
MAF is now 2nd all-time in games played by a goalie

....still 200+ games behind Marty for #1 lmao

Still pretty impressive he’s going to end two years earlier than Marty and never played 70 in a season and you factor in missed time with covid and the following year. I know I’m the only one on here thinking his wins record will fall that’s fine I def was the only one on here saying ovie would break the goal record.

There isn't a chance in hell anyone ever breaks the wins record. Goalies just do not play enough games for as long as Marty did, on a team that was that successful.

Marty was a complete freak of nature.

Yep.

If any goalie had a some sort of theoretical chance it was Fleury. He played in the NHL starting at 19. Starting in his 3rd year his teams made the playoffs every season. He’s been incredibly durable with few injuries.

And Fluery is still 118 wins behind Brodeur. Brodeur has too many +40 win seasons, it’s impossible to gain ground on him.

And that’s despite there being ties until Brodeur was 33 and all the lost games due to 3 lockouts.


Since 1984-85
There’s been 75 single seasons with +70 GP (goalies) by 34 goalies (none by Fleury)
18 goalies have 1
6 goalies have 2
6 goalies have 3
2 goalies have 4 (Lundqvist & Luongo)
1 goalie has 7 (Kiprusoff)
1 goalie has 12 (Brodeur)

There’s been 49 single seasons with +40 wins by 30 goalies:
21 goalies have 1
4 goalies have 2 (Belfour, Fleury, Luongo, Miller)
4 goalies have 3 (Holtby, Kiprusoff, Nabokov, Rinne)
1 goalie has 8 (Brodeur)

This is wins for goalies up to age 30. (post 2000 goalies + Brodeur highlighted)
