Keith Kinkaid was the star of tonight’s game between the New Jersey Devils and the Washington Capitals. Officially, he was the first star of the game. Unofficially, he was the second, third, fourth, and fifth star of the night. Kinkaid stopped forty-three out of forty-four shots in sixty-five minutes by the Washington Capitals. Add two shootout attempts and it’s 44 out of 46. If you break it down into scoring chances (shots and missed shots) like Natural Stat Trick does, Kinkaid faced forty-eight compared to the seventeen New Jersey generated all night long. Kinkaid denied point-blank shots in the slot, one-timers to his side, mid-range and long-range shots, and even robbed Nicklas Backstrom on a wraparound like he was Dominik Hasek.
