Things certainly have gotten a little helter-skelter in the Boston Bruins’ defensive zone in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final.
And no moment was quite as dicey as this one.
With the Bruins on the penalty kill, Vince Dunn threw a shot through traffic that was turned aside by Tuukka Rask. The rebound kicked out to Alex Pietrangelo, who tried to backhand one on net. The shot hit the post then off Rask’s back. It was then that Charlie McAvoy batted the puck out of the goal mouth in midair to save a goal.
If you looked up insanity in the dictionary, this is probably what you'd see.
