.940 - Braden Holtby's save percentage during the 97.6% of his minutes in the playoffs thus far with the score within one goal (and only once in 685-plus minutes has he allowed a goal when trailing, that being in the third period of Game 1 of the second round).

As noted recently, Holtby has been super coming off of losses (he has made 26-straight appearances without losing back-to-back games) and is now 9-0-0/1.06/.966 in his first start following a loss in 2011 and 2012 (4-0/1.13/.966 during these playoffs, including his Round 2, Game 2 win).
