3. Overtime Shutout Victory
It takes a lot to shutout a team in the NHL. It is a full team effort, starting with your goaltender being on top of his game. Lundqvist’s career-high in shutouts came during the 2010-11 season, 11 shutouts.
One of his most memorable came on the night of April 13th, 2013. This overtime shutout isn’t a shutout gained because both goalies made it to the shootout without giving up a goal. Lundqvist was able to make one more stop in the overtime period than Evgeni Nabokov.
The Rangers went on the win 1-0 in overtime off a Dan Girardi goal. Lundqvist played spectacular in the game. Stopping all 29 shots, he faced keeping the game tied, even though the Rangers were getting outshot.
The shutout was one of his two for the season. But the win was a big win for the Rangers.
