A save of the year candidate in September? It’s possible.
Jon Gillies of the Calgary Flames made an incredible stop during Wednesday’s exhibition game against the Vancouver Canucks.
The camera angle from directly above the net is the best, as it clearly shows how Gillies appeared to bump the puck back toward the goal line, then suddenly reach back with a no-look, behind-the-back glove save to prevent a Canucks goal and stop play.
This save is so insane, you need to see it from a few angles. https://t.co/qztlqKfnX3

That is one incredible save.
