9.5 - Number of starts per shutout for Braden Holtby since making his debut in 2010-11 (28 shutouts in 267 career starts). That’s the fourth-highest rate in the League, behind only Brian Elliott (8.4), Martin Jones (8.6) and Jaroslav Halak (9.5) among goalies with at least 20 starts over that span. This season that rate is even better, with five shutouts in 31 starts for a rate of 6.2 starts per shutout.
With his Saturday night shutout in Ottawa, Holtby now has five on the season, on pace to top his career-high single-season mark of nine (set two seasons ago).
