Jake Oettinger can stop it laying down.

The Dallas Stars goalie made a pair of remarkable saves while sprawled out on the ice against the Vegas Golden Knights during Game 2 of the Western Conference First Round on Wednesday.

In the second period with both teams shorthanded, Oettinger made a pad save on a shot by Golden Knights defenseman Shea Theodore. The veteran defenseman then backhanded his own rebound which the Stars goalie saved with his glove as he sprawled out on his side.

Theordore shot another rebound which Oettinger stopped again still laying down on the ice to keep the score tied 1-1.

Standing up is overrated anyway.
