It’s been one hell of a year for Bruins netminder Linus Ullmark.
In addition to a year that’s sending him to his first All-Star Game, a start that’s set him up to challenge Tim Thomas’ single-season save percentage record, and make a run at becoming the first goalie to win the ‘Triple Crown’ of goaltending (wins, save percentage, and goals against average), Ullmark has now set an NHL record.
In net for a 17-of-17 victory over the Sharks on Sunday night, Ullmark became the fastest goalie to reach 25 wins in NHL history, accomplishing the feat in just 28 decisions by way of his 25-2-1 record out of the gate.
