LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The save heard round the World.
On Nov. 19 Golden Knights' goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury made a save that many are calling the best of the year.
The Toronto Maple Leafs had just had a shot deflected off the goalpost and took another shot on goal that looked like it was going in.
Fleury turned, looked at the puck flying toward the net, reached as far as he could and made history with with an incredible glove catch.

Marc-Andre Fleury's Ozzie Smith-esque diving glove save was the sundae topper: just before he made several equally important and difficult stops. Maybe the greatest period of hockey I've witnessed by a goaltender.

“He’s worth the price of admission every night.”
Will have a story up on The Athletic soon with reactions from all of the players. #VegasBorn
