The importance of reading the play / preventing the threat: - The ability to break up / prevent a threat is just as important as making a save and it was never more prominently displayed than in last night’s Bruins/Leafs OT winner. Off the cross crease dump, the puck comes within range of the crease where Samsonov could have simply put it back in the corner by taking a stride out and handling it. He plays this very conservatively and leaves Pastrnak too much time and space. The rest is history. Your commitment to developing your ability to read plays and putting yourself in position to break them up is paramount to being an elite level goalie. #goalie #goalies #nhl #nhlplayoffs #activestick #readtheplay #bosakgoaltending nhl nhlontnt
