In backstopping a 4-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Friday night, Florida Panthers goaltender Roberto Luongo made history, moving into sole possession of fourth place on the all-time wins list with 455.
Luongo tied Curtis Joseph for fourth on the list in October, but an injury delayed his inevitable climb up the ranks.
The 38-year-old accomplished the feat in his 973rd contest, and now only trails Ed Belfour (484), Patrick Roy (551), and Martin Brodeur (691).
