Russian Florida goalkeeper Bobrovsky deflected the puck while facing the goal
Russian goalkeeper of the National Hockey League (NHL) Florida Panthers Sergei Bobrovsky made a spectacular save in the playoff match against the Tampa Bay Lightning. This was reported by a Lenta.ru correspondent.
The episode occurred in the second period when the score was 2:2. After the pass to the spot, the Russian found himself facing his own goal, but extended his left arm and jumped and deflected the shot of Lightning player Matt Dumba.
“It was desperation. I tried to close the goal with most of my body, and I managed to make a save,” said Bobrovsky, quoted by journalist Jameson Olive on the social network X.
For the remainder of the match, Bobrovsky kept a clean sheet, and Florida scored the winning goal in overtime and took a 2-0 lead in the series. The third match against Tampa will take place on April 26.
