New York Rangers midseason report cards: Goalies, coaches, front office

Henrik Lundqvist

After an awful October where he went 3-4-2 and posted a 3.21 goals against average and a .898 save percentage, Lundqvist has turned back the clock and has looked phenomenal. Since November 1st, he has notched a 2.18 goals against average and a .935 save percentage.

Lundqvist has more or less kept his team in games single-handedly. A huge reason for the team’s recent stretch of “success” is the King’s brilliance between the pipes.

Especially in a stretch of eight games now where the Rangers have not won a game in regulation, the above graphic tells you everything that you need to know.

In fact, according to Corsica.hockey, Lundqvist ranks third in the NHL in goals saved with 10 on the season just behind Sergei Bobrovsky and Andrei Vasilevskiy.

If it wasn’t for his rocky start to the year Lundqvist would probably be a top Vezina Trophy candidate. For those who have watched him over the last two and a half months, however, Lundqvist is a very real Hart Trophy candidate for league MVP.
