NHL Goalie Save Percentage Leaders

2021-22All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks NHL goalies by save percentage, regular season only, among goalies with enough starts. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.

Save percentage is saves divided by shots on goal. League average sits around .900 to .905; a full season above .920 is elite. SV% is a ratio category, so a goalie with few starts can help or hurt it a lot. The minimum-starts cutoff keeps emergency call-ups off the top.

Leader in 2021-22: Igor Shesterkin (NYR), 0.935 SV%.

How to read it

Saves divided by shots on goal (minimum starts scale with the season).

How reliable is it?

Save percentage needs a big sample: even a full season is only moderately repeatable. Compare it with the shot-quality boards.
