Kari Lehtonen Made The Best Save Of This Young NHL Season

It shouldn't have come to this. Dallas's Kari Lehtonen should never have had to make this spinning, behind-the-back swipe that kept the Stars-Blue Jackets game scoreless. Even screened by Nick Foligno, Lehtonen will probably be the first to tell you he should have gloved the puck, or knocked it down, instead of deflecting it up and over him. But that's what happened, and Lehtonen had the presence of mind (and the dumb luck) to clean up after himself.


Columbus would win the game, though. It was all meaningless!
