Andrei Vasilevskiy Left Bloodied After Taking Knee To The Head on Diving Save
Andrei Vasilevskiy really put it all on the line for this diving save, jumping across his crease and taking a knee to the head to stop...
[Applause]
And back comes Robinson the other way for Columbus, flips that down and took the funny bounce in the corner. Robinson, and Vasilevskiy makes the stop. Andrei Vasilevskiy on a strange cam out of the corner boards had to dive across and make that stop to take a goal away. Wow, I don't know, he got hit as he was coming across, but yeah, there's a little blood there. Brian, you talk about desperation. Yeah, you see Vasilevskiy, a little bit of blood, and take a look at this bounce off the wall. We've talked about the springing boards. I've yet to see a cross-corner dump that's come across like that. And there's the collision, yeah. But man, what a recovery here by Vasilevskiy to get back. We've seen some bounces off these walls, but man, that cross-corner dump, that's a new one. These goalies will take a knee in the head to make a save any day, won't they? Whatever it takes. So basking in some intentionally lightning bench, the athletic therapist will have, quote, "a reasonable amount of time to attend to this," and then if the officials deem it's taking too long, it's either get back in the net or make a switch. 14:07 to go in the second period. You were talking about that statistic about Columbus winning 12 games when they are tied going into the third. You know, they just really can't play any other way. John Tortorella has, you know, knows that he's got a certain type of team, and there's really not much in the way of choices left to him, so he's got to double down on his defense.

Andrei Vasilevskiy Loses Skate Blade as Lightning Kill 5-on-3 Power Play
Andrei Vasilevskiy loses his skate blade and is forced to stay in the butterfly position while the Lightning successfully kill a 5-on-3 power play. Despite his inability to stand, Vasilevskiy manages to make several saves, helping his team until the first penalty expires. The loss of the skate blade is likened to playing ball hockey in a hallway, as the blade flies off and hits the end wall.
