The Philadelphia Flyers led the Montreal Canadiens 1-0 in the second period of Game 1 of their first-round series, and it looked like they had a 2-0 lead when Scott Laughton had a close-range shot on an open net.
But Canadiens goaltender Carey Price made an absurd stick save while face down on the ground to deny Laughton’s rocket.

Ridiculous.
The Flyers currently have a 2-1 lead in the third period, but that Price save has kept them right in the game.
