Twenty-nine-year-old Attila Adorjan of Minsk has been focused and stubborn enough to record 10 shutouts this season. It’s probably a team defense record as much as a goalie record, but Adorjan could get his name in the record books. The record is 11 shutouts in a season, set by Philipp Grubauer of Paris (Season 11)
Here are some other records that are still possible this season, listed from most probable to least probable.
