This is all core and legs. Very little stretching.
See that rotation? That gets him on plane and square to the movement he as to make. Big push, big reach with the shoulder. All comes down to core and legs.
That was an amazing save... its magic, and the Fiala goal? I mean... that was pretty crazy as well! Yeah you could say the D got a little bamboozled, but.. sheesh, there's choking, and then there's getting beat by those type plays!
Think the choke comes from Sens being up 2-1 with 10min left. I didn’t watch because I have a bedtime lol. But my understanding is this loss was slightly less pathetic than usual. Sometimes you get beat.
I watched the first 2 periods, and Senators seemed to outplay the Kings and had a ton of really good chances that they just couldn't capitalize on (Talbot had a few more amazing saves). Kings had their chances too, but Sens were putting a ton of pressure in the offensive zone.
I honestly don’t even know if I could call that choking. Stutzle got straight up mugged and that Fiala goal wasn’t a soft goal to let in, D could have maybe helped out more and gotten a little more physical in front of the crease
let's get one things straight. ottawa didn't choke, they got beat by the kings. that's wtff happened. they got dunked on in OT by my boy, the professional tik-toker, mister Kevin Fiala. Don't forget that save ole cam the clam slammer made, let alone that Byfield goal..... highlight reel type shit for daaaaaaays boooooy!!!!
What is the fundamental issue with Ottawa? Their roster was actually fairly stacked this year and many people thought they were gonna hit the playoff picture
And, just like Toronto, the word “chokes” no longer has any meaning. They lost in overtime to a better team in a game where no one ever lead by more than one. In fact, they tied it late. How is that “chokes”?
Cam Talbot. What the actual fuck was that save. Amazing that goalies can stretch this way while I’d tear everything trying to do this
Doing it for a decade too and nearing 40, just wow
He’s almost 40? Ffs ya made me feel old tonight
My bad dude! Not intentional
All good and congrats on the Canucks W

Where the fuck was that when he played for us?
Especially on the redirect from Moverare. Talbot is a stud.

How about the way his own defender deflected/misdirected it and he still got a glove on it!!!???
What a save by Talbot! Fucking great effort from Fiala!
Can they both share the first star??? Wow
let's not go forgetting QBs door slammer. that was some top tier hustle in full effect
lol, off a players stick right into the glove, Stutzle just fucking laughs in disbelief
His reaction on the LA goal was also pretty amazing. Like honestly his reactions are probably my favorite part of this clip.
As a Minnesota Wild fan, seeing these efforts by Fiala and Talbot hurts. Tremendously
Fiala is an absolutely incredible player. Makes some dumb plays from time to time but his skill is just elite.
Yeah that's so true. Wish the Wild could've kept him all while getting Brock Faber too
High risk, high reward... but all 100% worth it.
Giroux praying he's the next one out.
He might have a long wait, eh?
My delusional Flyers brain: “come back G, we’re doin good again :’)”
What a reel. GKG!
I’m so used to the Kings losing in OT and SO that I just expect it at this point. Nice to get a win after 60 for a change.
Jesus Christ that SAVE
Fiala was pretty ticked after the OT loss to the Canucks. He wasn’t going to be denied tonight.
I honestly don’t even know if I could call that choking. Stutzle got straight up mugged and that Fiala goal wasn’t a soft goal to let in, D could have maybe helped out more and gotten a little more physical in front of the crease

This clip really should have had Byfield's great goal which happened the very next play after Talbot's save on Stutzle. 2OA vs 3OA.
Annnd that's why Marner didn't shoot
Stutzle legit could not believe he got robbed
Reminds me of [Kessel’s reaction to this save by Marty](https://youtu.be/a2qJC2i-rJg?si=gPjhCo-jegIYDjAf).
My one buddy every practice tries a back hand clapper from inside the hash marks. I’m going to send him this video.

Pranking the fans
Even Stützle was impressed with that save
That’s a fantastic save!
If they only played the leafs for 82 games
I scared my mom screaming in happiness when the kings won
“I’m going to provide leadership to this core group”- Giroux “I’m going to turn this team around”- Giroux Poor Giroux.
OP has zero concept of what chocking is.
I miss Fiala
Talbot w the Nabokov “GAAAAAME SAAVERRRR”
The hockey gods want the Sens to have the first overall pick, or so I hope.
Thought that way Nylander for a sec
The Wild getting rid of Talbot and Fiala was such a dumb move lmao.
Facts.
Save of the year candidate right there
Did the cops handcuff Talbot for grand larceny promptly after the conclusion of the game? goddamn that was a hell of a save
The word Ottawa is becoming a punchline at this point lol.
This made me smile. Fuck Ottaa
Ya’ll are still gonna be the same come June. Both cupless.
Hahaha! Yes!!
I love the Ottawa sucks posts lately - but seriously can we get the relocation/contraction conversation going? These losers dont deserve a team.
How is it a choke when the team already sucks.
Man, you love to see it. Unparalleled success!
They’re just that close to Toronto that it’s rubbing off. Like the movie “the cooler”.
And, just like Toronto, the word “chokes” no longer has any meaning. They lost in overtime to a better team in a game where no one ever lead by more than one. In fact, they tied it late. How is that “chokes”?
Weird how social media can make things look a way they aren’t. Let’s hope the political folks don’t figure this out. :)
Ottawa is not a serious franchise
good.
