Goalies’World rankings

Ryan Miller’s still in the lead

For a 3rd straight Monday Ryan Miller, of the Buffalo Sabres is the Goalies’World rankings leader with a rock solid 18-6-4 1.83, .939 record, leading the NHL in goals against average, save percentage and shutouts (4). He’s 99 computer points ahead of Miikka Kiprusoff in second place of our rankings. Miller had another solid week with a 2-1-0, .955, 1.68 record, stopping 105 of 110 shots in three games. He recorded a 35 saves shutout on Wednesday against the dangerous Washington Capitals.

 

 

 

 

Goalies’World goalie of the week
Martin Brodeur gets shutout #103

Martin Brodeur wasn’t the hottest NHL goaltender this week but he nevertheless gets our Goalie of the Week title with an impressive 3-1-0, .922, 1.76 record. Above all, Brodeur registered his 103rd career shutout on Monday in Buffalo, tying Terry Sawchuk for the all-time shutout record and this is one of the most impressive records ever accomplished. The winningest goalie in history is as good as ever and he looks like he’ll be Team Canada’s starting goaltender at the Olympics.
