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.
