On Monday night, Minnesota Wild goalie Marc-Andre Fleury tied another NHL record, further cementing his case as a future first-ballot Hall of Famer.
As many know, Martin Brodeur is the NHL’s all-time wins leader with 691. Moreover, he was the only goalie to ever record at least ten wins in 20 seasons, until Monday, when Fleury joined him.
Since debuting in 2003-04, Fleury has won at least ten games in every season of his career outside of his rookie campaign, when he went 4-14-2 in 21 games.
Initially drafted first overall by the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2003, Fleury has become the league’s second winningest goalie with a 571-334-97 record in 1,041 games. He’s a three-time Stanley Cup winner and captured the Vezina Trophy in 2020-21.

In 16 games this year, Fleury is 10-4-1 in 16 games with a 2.60 GAA and .909 SV%, some of his best statistics in a couple of seasons.
