Jordan Binnington stopped all 25 shots he faced in Saturday’s 1-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. In what was a fantastic showdown between netminders on Saturday, Binnington and Marc-Andre Fleury kept the scoreboard clean through the first two periods of the game. It would be Fleury who ultimately blinked, coughing up a goal to Torey Krug midway through the third period. Fueled by that 1-0 advantage, Binnington would carry on with his shutout through to the end of the game. Binnington had surrendered at least three goals in four of his first five starts before turning in this gem against the Blackhawks.
