Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky joins exclusive group in win over Rangers 

Bobrovsky is now one of only 14 goalies to surpass the 400-win mark. Meanwhile, he's just the second active tender to accomplish the feat, joining Marc-Andre Fleury.

While Bobrovsky etched his name in the record books, he prevented a former Panther from doing the same. Late in the third period, he sprawled out to make a ridiculous toe save on Vincent Trocheck, denying the Rangers forward career goal No. 200.

Bobrovsky's latest milestone adds to an already impressive resume. A two-time Vezina Trophy winner, he helped lead the Panthers to their first Stanley Cup in 2024.

Currently 14th on the all-time in wins, he could quickly climb up the list. If he duplicates last year's 36-win campaign, he will end the 2024-25 campaign ranked 10th behind Hall of Famer Jacques Plante (437).

The 15-year pro has done enough to earn Hall of Fame consideration. However, following Thursday's history-making win, Bobrovsky is all but a shoo-in and may even be worthy of getting in on his first try whenever he decides to hang up the skates for good.

For now, Bobrovsky and the Panthers are looking to defend their title. Through nine games, Florida is 5-3-1 with 11 points, tied with the Rangers (5-1-1) for the most in the Eastern Conference.
