This unexpected save has been described as one of the most incredible and unusual saves of the season, with many comparing it to magic tricks or wizardry. The save, captured by Sportsnet, was crucial in keeping the game level and has been widely discussed and praised across social media. The stick was positioned on the goal line, making it an even more dramatic moment.
