Matt Murray made 27 saves for his second straight shutout and win the Stanley Cup for the second time in as many NHL seasons.
* No other goaltender in League history has won the Stanley Cup-clinching game in each of his first two seasons. In fact, only one other goalie, the New York Islanders' Roland Melanson, won the Cup in each of his first two NHL seasons. Melanson did so in his first three seasons (1981-83), but primarily served as the backup to teammate Billy Smith.
* Via Elias, Murray became the fourth NHL goaltender with consecutive shutouts to win the Stanley Cup, and the first to do so for a team other than the Red Wings. They achieved the feat in 1937 when Earl Robertson defeated the Rangers; in 1943 when Johnny Mowers defeated the Bruins; and in 1952 when Terry Sawchuk defeated the Montreal Canadiens.
* Murray stopped 64 straight shots to close the Stanley Cup Final, allowing his last goal at 13:08 of the second period in Game 4, a span of 146:26 of time on ice.
