Which MLS goalkeepers are the all-time best at stopping penalty kicks?

Over the weekend Tim Melia and Zack Steffen made headlines by saving penalty kicks to help their respective teams, Sporting Kansas City and Columbus Crew SC, bag big victories – and for both goalkeepers, it was only the latest in a string of clutch PK saves in their careers.

Which got us thinking: Who are the best ‘keepers in MLS history when it comes to stopping opponents’ spot kicks? We stacked them up using their career percentage of penalty goals allowed; thus the lower the percentage of PKs against them converted, the better they fare.
