Florida Panthers defenseman Keith Yandle played his 915th consecutive game Saturday night when he suited up against the Carolina Hurricanes. In doing so, he now stands alone with the second-longest ironman streak in NHL history.

The veteran blue-liner eclipsed Garry Unger's mark of 914, which he tied Thursday. Doug Jarvis holds the record at 964.

Here's the top five all time:

Player Consecutive games
Doug Jarvis 964
Keith Yandle* 915
Garry Unger 914
Patrick Marleau* 900
Phil Kessel* 891

*Active player

Yandle hasn't missed a game since the 2008-09 season.
