Would you like to play a game? Let’s call it ‘Match the Goalie.’
Those of you who read the comments in my post yesterday, don’t ruin the answer I revealed there. For those of you comfortable navigating War on Ice, don’t cheat.
Since Braden Holtby made his NHL debut on October 5, 2010, 53 goalies have played 3000+ minutes, Holtby being one of them.
Here is a table of four goalies with their 5-on-5 save percentage and where it ranks among the 53.
| Goalie | 5-on-5 save% (rank) |
| Goalie 1 | 93.12% (3rd) |
| Goalie 2 | 92.92% (8th) |
| Goalie 3 | 92.64% (14th) |
| Goalie 4 | 92.57% (19th) |
A few weeks ago, Peter had a similar story where he gave you two unnamed teams to try to identify. (They were both the Caps.) Since I am a nicer and generally better person, I’m going to give you the names of the four goalies. Try to match them and leave you answer in the comments.
- Jonathan Quick
- Henrik Lundqvist
- Braden Holtby
- Semyon Varlamov
In the words of The Flaming Lips, the test begins……NOW.
