Save of the Season? Blackwood makes stunning split save against Red Wings

Mackenzie Blackwood showed off his flexibility on Monday.

The San Jose Sharks goalie made a dazzling split save to rob Detroit Red Wings forward Andrew Copp of a goal.

Just seconds into the second period, the Red Wings rushed into the Sharks zone and forward Christian Fischer received the puck then quickly dished a pass to Copp who was driving towards the net. Blackwood quickly stretched out and stopped Copp's deflection with his pads to keep it a one goal game.
