Rank Player Wins GP
1 Martin Brodeur 691 1266
2 Marc-Andre Fleury 552 1007
3 Patrick Roy 551 1029

Fleury accomplished the feat in epic fashion, stopping all 21 shots he faced in the 5-0 victory to record his 74th career shutout - two back of Ed Belfour and Tony Esposito for a share of 10th on the all-time list.

Fleury is unquestionably destined for the Hall of Fame. He's won three Stanley Cups (2009, 2016, 2017) and one Vezina Trophy (2021) in his illustrious 20-year NHL career.

The 39-year-old has yet to decide on his playing future beyond this season. He entered Monday with a career-worst .893 save percentage.
