Goaltender Henrik Lundqvist claimed sole possession of fifth on the NHL's all-time wins list with the New York Rangers' 3-2 overtime victory over the Minnesota Wild on Monday.
Lundqvist made 26 stops to earn the 455th win of his illustrious career, passing Curtis Joseph on the list.
King Henrik, 37, only trails Ed Belfour (484), Roberto Luongo (489), Patrick Roy (551), and Martin Brodeur (691). Vegas Golden Knights stalwart Marc-Andre Fleury is hot in pursuit, however, currently sitting at 450.
Lundqvist has spent his entire 15-year career with the Rangers. He owns a career .918 save percentage and has earned a Vezina Trophy and two postseason All-Star nominations.
