NHL Goalie Wins Leaders: Buffalo Sabres
2020-21All situationsThrough 56 team games
This board ranks NHL goalies by wins, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
A goalie is credited with the win when he is in net for the go-ahead goal that stands. Starters on good teams lead, and the totals follow starts more than save percentage. Wins are the one goalie category every league scores. Starts drive them: a workhorse on an average team usually beats a great goalie in a timeshare.
Leader for the Buffalo Sabres in 2020-21: Linus Ullmark (BUF), 9 W.

How to read it
Wins credited, regular season (overtime and shootout wins included).
How reliable is it?
Wins depend on team scoring and starts as much as on the goalie; save percentage and GAA say more about his play.
