Linus Ullmark has been near unstoppable in net. The Bruins need to reward him with fewer starts.

COMMENTARY

Linus Ullmark is having a season for the ages.

It’s only taken the Bruins netminder 28 decisions to reach 25 wins this season, shattering a 93-year-old NHL record for fewest results needed to hit that benchmark.

The anchor of a stout B’s defense, Ullmark leads the league in wins, goals against average (1.82), and save percentage (.938).

Former Capitals goalie Braden Holtby holds the single-season NHL record for wins (48). Ullmark (25-1-2) is right on his heels.

It’d be a fitting accolade for Ullmark to achieve in a year where the Vezina Trophy is his to lose.
