Bobrovsky and the Panthers are already up 1-0 on the Tampa Bay Lightning in their 1st round series, but with Bobrovsky's incredible play, they're looking to take a 2-0 series lead tonight.
With the game knotted up at 2, Bobrovsky took himself out of position to make the first save on a Lightning scoring attempt. It was his second save, though, that has everyone talking.
After being down and out of the play, Bobrovsky made an incredible second effort to spin around and catch the rebound off of his arm to keep the game tied. Very Dominik Hasek-like:
There's a reason why this guy has two Vezina Trophies and is a two-time All-Star. This save is undoubtedly the best save of the playoffs so far. Maybe even save of the year.
