Is This The Best Save of All Time?
Reader Email
I don’t claim to be a hockey historian but all things considered that has to be one of the best saves in the history of the sport right. I mean 5 seconds left in regulation in a win or go home game and this kid robs him blind. The only way something could compare is in a Game 7 situation or the NCAA playoffs. But if a save like that exists I’ve never seen it. Kid who got stoned must want to kill himself right about now. Lift the puck Billy! Lift the puck!



that’s a bad shot and a lucky save. kid slid it right along the ice, any decent player would have roofed that
Save was average. If that bender had any umph on his shot tie game.
Tuukka made a diving stick save all the way across the crease in OT of the playoffs last year against Buffalo. Much better than this one.
shitty shot doesnt = amazing save
still a great save though
Not even in the top 100,000 saves ever. Rask made better saves last night and Thomas routinely makes better saves than that one.
Meh. Doesn’t even crack the top 1000 saves of all time.
Best save I have ever seen was Brian Boucher against the Devils in the 2000 playoffs.

Ridiculous…
Is this the best blog of all-time?
I’ll still take Reggie Lemelin robbing Pat Verbeek
Maybe a Top 5 save in Williamsville North hockey, but not even close in the overall scheme of things
maybe the NY site will like it better.
talk about a yawner … holy smokes pres.
I really hate when you blog about hockey, leave that to rear admiral. Every time it shows you have no clue what you are talking about…
great save, best of all time, no. best super man jump into the pile at 1:09? possibly.
I saw better saves when I played midget league.
Game 7 of NCAA Game? Great blog.
Good save? Yes
Worthy of the blog title? No
Kind of like the Philly ‘Smokeshows’… … … …
terrrible blog…..must be a slow day at the stool.
Billy should have buried. Talk about a kid wanting to kill himself, a defensemen whiffed the puck in the crease and then kicked it in to lose the high school hockey championship in Minnesota a few days ago. I am talking in front of 20,000 fans.
skip to the 8:50 mark.

Were you up pounding bagels and your dick all night Pres ?
Put some fucking energy into these blogs son, we’re dying here
no its pretty standerd for any half way athletic goalie, and on top of that the kid has fucking shitty swag, get a new set up bro
Pres, props for posting my buffalo, ny alma mater. That save was sick and we have been dominating NY state for years. Any Boston HS hockey team would get smoked.

played ice hockey all my life at very high levels…this was a great save. stop hating on the kid. makes it all the more special given only a few seconds left in the game. great athletic save. agreed that el pres doesnt know shit about hockey, but he admits that so cant fault him there
ive made better saves than that and i dont even play goalie
Would have been the best save ever if the goalie’s D-man rag dolled the guy who stuck him goalie after the whistle. Can’t teach tough.
no, you know nothing about hockey and this is no where near one of the best saves. just take this video down.
That’s a pretty filthy save to preserve the win in the state tournament semi’s. If i was that kid shooting at the open net who got stoned, i would have driven into a tree on the way home. How do you not score there?
worst sport ever. i’d rather watch lax
I just showed this video to Charles Barkley, he said it was terrrble. I agree.
tampa gator…you’re fucking high if you think a new york high school hockey team would touch cm st sibbs or at some points even bc high
pick any of these which are all better.

Yeah but 2 inches to the left and you would have missed completely…
The kid shot the puck 3 mph…
Good save, obviously made better by the situation. Fleury’s diving stop in the dying seconds of Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals against Hall of Famer Nick Lidstrom (who actually put up a good shot) is still a better stop though.
Hockey, no care.
good save. definitely not the best of all time.

Hockey, no care.
What are you a fucking caveman?
Gotta love the one fucking moron at the end skating full speed into the pile and just jumping face first into the boards. There’s always one.
lucky save. best part is the retard going face first into the glass.

How about that save by Marc Andre Fleury to save the Cup for the Pens, that’s pretty legit if ya ask me, maybe not the best of all time but if you consider the circumstances, it’s up there.
Kaberle made a better save for the B’s last night at the end of the game, as a fuckin defensemen
