(WBS Penguins) Pittsburgh Penguins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/pittsburgh-penguins] top goaltending prospect Sergei Murashov continues to do nothing but make saves at every level of professional hockey. And he just tied a franchise record for Pittsburgh's AHL affiliate, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (WBS). With a win against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on Sunday, Murashov registered his ninth consecutive AHL win, which ties Matt Murray's WBS rookie record. The 20-year-old rookie goaltender made 23 saves on 26 shots to lead WBS to the win Sunday. He is now 9-0 with a .921 save percentage and one shutout for WBS so far this season. Since 2019-20 season with Loko Yaraslavl in Russia's junior league - when he was 16 years old - Murashov has not posted a save percentage below .920 at any level of hockey. This includes stints at the MHL (Russia's junior league), KHL, ECHL, and AHL levels. Murashov - in addition to his nine wins in nine AHL starts this season - has spent a significant portion of the 2024-25 season in the ECHL, where he is 17-7-1 with a .922 save percentage and one shutout across 26 appearances. As it stands now, Murashov is one of three goaltenders on the active roster for the WBS [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/pittsburgh-penguins/players/february-penguins-prospects-update-goaltenders], which also includes Filip Larsson and Joel Blomqvist - both of whom are having stellar seasons as well. Larsson is 10-7-3 with a .923 save percentage and five shutouts this season, while Blomqvist - who has spent two brief stints at the NHL level this season - is 7-5-3 with a .910 save percentage and one shutout. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bookmark THN - Pittsburgh Penguins on your Google News tab [https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqBwgKMK-q0gsw7sXpAw/sections/CAQqEAgAKgcICjCvqtILMO7F6QMwquDfCA?hl=en-CA&gl=CA&ceid=CA%3Aen] to follow the latest Penguins news, roster moves, player features, and more!
