Ed Belfour reached another milestone in a career that will go down as one of the greatest for a goaltender.
Belfour became only the seventh NHL goaltender to win 400 regular-season games when the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the New Jersey Devils 3-2 on a goal by Tomas Kaberle in overtime.
"Quiet frankly, 400 is a ton,'' said Maple Leafs coach Pat Quinn. "Eddie is a top guy in that category.
"He's had a marvelous career. I'm sure it's a wonderful milestone for him. Hopefully there are lots more for him.''
Belfour joins Patrick Roy, Terry Sawchuk, Jacques Plante, Tony Esposito, Glenn Hall and Grant Fuhr in the 400-club.
"This is definitely up there,'' Belfour said. "It's something I feel honored about and I'm thankful that I'm on the Toronto Maple Leafs with a great group of guys who play well in front of me. I owe it all to them.''
