To give the backdrop to this particular play, we were playing 6 men (I was in goal). The score was 2-2 going into OT. The game had been a little sloppy. I had let in a goal that had bounced off the backboards and was tipped in between post and pad when we were up 2-1. StMerc kept passing into the goalie's pads on offense, and Koop was having a less stellar game than usual at the blue line.
Then this happened:

The broadcast view doesn't quite do it as much justice as a closer view could have done, but it was (in Joborule's words) a 'sick sequence'. The desperation save, followed by the OT winner on the ensuing rush couldn't have been scripted better. It was sweet redemption for what was for the most part an 'ordinary' game.
Being a part of a play like this one, is what makes this game so much fun. |
video has been posted on the fatas site. i found a pretty painless way of ripping the video and posting it to the site. so if there are any others you guys would like posted, we could start a good archive of them.
just get me the url of the EA page and i can do the rest.
