His win (24), shutout (six) and 20 consecutive starts (ties Wild franchise record) are career-highs and he ranks T-2nd in the NHL in shutouts, third in GAA (2.15) and T-5th in SV% (.926) this season.
Dubnyk became the first Wild player to earn the honor as the First Star of the month. Josh Harding was named the Third Star of the month in 2013.
