2nd all-time in career save percentage.

1. Hasek - .9223
2. Thomas - .9200

Granted, they've only been counting that stat for ~30 years but that's still hella impressive.

Currently leads the league with a ridiculous .955 SP, has a 1.46 GAA and a 12-2-1 record. I've always considered him the Rodney Dangerfield of goaltending but at some point, you have to concede that he's a top guy.

Lol. Yeah, they're pretty much a goaltender coach's worst nightmare.

How many starts does Thomas have in his career? Just wondering. Don't wanna look it up.

I think the minimum requirement for starts to qualify for career SP (according to hockey reference) is 250.

Thanks. But that didn't really answer my question. :D

/Just looked it up. Tim has 268 so he's good with hockey reference.

Funny thing is most Bruins fans would have traded him for a bag of pucks last year. Good to see him rebound.
