per sportsnet graphic on this game i'm watching
goalies to lead in wins, goals against average, save% and shutouts in the same season ..... conner hollerback on pace to be the 3rd to accomplish this. the goalie quadruple crown? safe to say he's winning the vezina this year
current odds: -20000, the field +5000 lolol
anyway pop quiz hotshot, who are the other 2?
hint: both also won the stanley cup in those seasons
will hollerback do the same? probably not :(
What a win for les boys!

Brodeur and Dryden?
nope to both
Chatgpt finds nothing
hell yeah, got a real skill game on our hands here
Lane Hutson with an insane rookie season.
His 3 assist game gives him 54 assists for the season, 3rd all-time for a rookie defenseman and he's within striking distance of the record (1. Larry Murphy - 60, 2. Chris Chelios - 55).
Laine has 18g and 14 of them are just him banging in PP goals from the same exact spot. Dude is so damn useless 5 on 5. 72off warned us this would happen.

Tim Thomas? Probably not the wins though
Throwing **** at the wall:
Glenn Hall (might predate sv%)
Bernie Parent
Billy Smith
Paddy Roy
Billy Smith was an excellent guess.
I can't image Fuhr ever getting the save%.
The Calgary guy...Vernon?
According to a person familiar with the deal, the NHL has reached an agreement with Rogers Communications on a 12-year, $7.7 US billion media rights agreement in Canada.
Help with the Leafs cap errr I mean NHL salary cap.

I hope this means games aren't blacked out nationwide except the local market. It's such a pain in the ass.
We've got a chancellor who can't even hold a hockey stick the right way. Fml.
other one was jacques plante in 1958–59
During the 1959–60 season, Plante wore a goaltender mask for the first time in a regular season game. Although Plante had used his mask in practice since 1956 after missing 13 games because of a sinusitis operation, head coach Toe Blake was afraid it would impair his vision and would not permit him to wear it during regulation play. However, on November 1, 1959, Plante's nose was broken when he was hit by a shot fired by Andy Bathgate three minutes into a game against the New York Rangers, and he was taken to the dressing room for stitches. When he returned, he was wearing the crude homemade goaltender mask that he had been using in practices. Blake was livid, but he had no other goaltender to call upon and Plante refused to return to the goal unless he wore the mask. Blake agreed on the condition that Plante discard the mask when the cut healed. The Canadiens won the game 3–1. During the following days, Plante refused to discard the mask, and as the Canadiens continued to win, Blake was less vocal about it. The unbeaten streak stretched to 18 games. Plante did not wear the mask, at Blake's request, against Detroit on March 8, 1960; the Canadiens lost 3–0, and the mask returned for good the next night. That year, the Canadiens won their fifth straight Stanley Cup, which was Plante's last.
the more you know
actually insane that the goalie quad crown hasn't happened more, especially in the 6-team era. says a lot about what hollerback might accomplish this season ... should be in the mvp conversation? i assume jets coach has a good shot at jack adams too. him and the caps guy

Connor Hellebuyck Jets -185
Nathan MacKinnon Avalanche 180
