Jack Campbell's consecutive win streak reached historic proportions Wednesday.
The Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender established a new franchise mark with his 10th straight victory, turning aside 32 of the 34 shots in a 3-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens.
Campbell was in a tie for the record with Felix Potvin (1993-94), Jacques Plante (1970-71), and John Ross Roach (1924-25).
The 29-year-old has become the Maple Leafs' de facto No. 1 goalie as starter Frederik Andersen continues to deal with a nagging injury. Campbell has won every game he's played in 2021, and he entered Wednesday's contest with a .944 save percentage over the previous nine contests.
Toronto acquired Campbell in a trade with the Los Angeles Kings in February 2020.
