3. 21 Straight Starts

With a start on Saturday against the Colorado Avalanche, Devan Dubnyk tied the team record for 20 consecutive starts by a goaltender. He of course ties Niklas Backstrom, who the Wild rode in a similar fashion a number of seasons.

After Tuesday’s start against the Senators, Dubnyk is the sole owner of that record at 21 consecutive starts and counting.
