Henrik Lundqvist leapfrogged another Hall of Famer on Saturday night.
The New York Rangers goaltender stopped 38 of 39 shots in a 2-1 shootout win over the Arizona Coyotes, and in doing so, moved past Tony Esposito and took sole possession of eighth place on the NHL's all-time wins list among netminders with his 424th career victory.
Lundqvist surpassed Glenn Hall for ninth on the list when he earned his 408th career win in a victory over the Vegas Golden Knights back on Oct. 31.
The 35-year-old is having a solid season, owning a .924 save percentage in 35 games.
