Henrik Lundqvist has been doing such a stellar job this season that after October, we here at BLS decided he deserved his own slideshow of top saves on a monthly basis.

Lundqvist has done it all this season, helping the Rangers go 9-4-1 through the month of November, and 13-11-2 through the first 26.

This month, Lundqvist recorded a respectable .913 save percentage and let in two goals or fewer than half of the appearances he made.

The only game where he really stumbled was against the Islanders, when he let in five goals on 17 shots and was pulled from the game. Had that game not happened, Lundqvist’s save percentage would have topped out at .936 through the nine other games.

Lundqvist has successfully given the Rangers an opportunity to stay in games, even while facing a high number of shots, seeing 30 or more in half of the games this month — and in 12 in his first 20 starts.

Needless to say, there are always a plethora of Henrik highlights. Here are our choice for his top five saves in November.
