The Vegas Golden Knights goalie capped a flurry of saves with an eye-popping, behind-the-back skate save on the Calgary Flames forward late in the second period of the Golden Knights 4-0 win at T-Mobile Arena.
After Fleury made a right-toe save on Flames forward Michael Ferland's shot from the right circle, he spun around and stopped Backlund's backhand rebound attempt with the backside of his skate, while facing the net.
It could've been called highway robbery, except it happened on ice.
The stop the best of Fleury's 42 saves Sunday, and it helped preserve his fourth shutout of the season and the 48th of his NHL career.
