Luongo’s on the back spin-a-rama glove save the highlight of the night

The Canucks moved into the second round with another third period comeback last night. Vancouver’s goalie and captain Roberto Luongo had his best game of the playoffs by far and the exclamation point was this on the back spin-o-rama glove save – if he hadn’t held strong at that point the momentum of the game could easily have taken LA to victory and both teams back to Vancouver for game seven.

Chicago goalie Antti Niemi strip searched after robbing Nashville

Twitter went nuts on Saturday when Chicago goalie Antti Niemi took the idea of robbing Nashville shooters to a new level, losing the puck in his gear and prompting the officials to conduct an extended on-ice search. The length of time it took before the puck was finally located was remarkable, but in this day of oversized and loose fitting gear it really shouldn’t have come as much of a surprise!

The NHL network released their “saves of the season” – some of the most remarkable and acrobatic saves by the best goalies in the business.

Favs anyone? Not sure the guys recovering from bonehead puck handling should count…but they sure make for some great recoveries.

Saves of the Week March 22

There are ten great bits of goaltending in here to enjoy – ten moments where these guys just shine. I have to say I like Garon’s for pure skill. It was not a “look what I found” bit of embelishment, or a recovery from a rebound or other difficult situation. It was just a challenge the shooter – strength on strength – save. Beautiful.

Honors to Marc-Andre Fleury as well. Not sure if that was look what I found or not but he gets a Tony Award for his work on stage after he grabbed that puck. As the coaches say, “you can’t teach that.” Nope, you can’t. But there are hundreds of kids out there right now practicing it on the rinks and in their driveways! That’s road hockey creativity there.

Which save is your favourite and why? Drop us a note in the comments. I have to say Andrew Raycroft takes it in my books the spin-o-rama diving save is fantastic.

How Hard is it to Play Goal – Video Segment with Martin Brodeur

In a fun pre-Olympic piece, Wall Street Journal Reporter Reed Albergotti did this video segment on “How Hard Can it Be” to play goal, with Team Canada goalie Martin Brodeur. Marty was a real natural in the piece that didn’t come off as cheezy as many bits for non-fans can.

As you watch it – can you spot the equipment error before they point it out?
