Next in our “Year in Review” series, we take a look at the best saves the New York Rangers made in the 2016 calendar year.

2016 was a very strange year for the New York Rangers. It has been filled with plenty of unforgettable highs and unforgettable lows, streaks, injuries and just overall weird hockey.

Oddly enough, the goaltending, which statistically was worse over this calendar year than it has since Henrik Lundqvist became the full-time starter in 2005-2006 may have produced some of the best saves that the team’s netminders have managed to put together at any other point in time.

So right here, right now, sit back and enjoy the top five saves of the 2016 New York Rangers calendar year.
