The Carolina Hurricanes didn't register a goal against the Washington Capitals Tuesday night, but goaltender Cam Ward pulled off the save of the night.
The Hurricanes' lone bright spot in their
3-0 loss occurred around 11:08 of the second period. After Ward made an initial pad save, the puck directed toward streaking Capitals forward Joel Ward in the slot.
Joel Ward then one-timed a shot into the open side, but Cam Ward reached out with his glove at the last moment, getting a piece of the puck which bounced across the goal-line and past the far post.
The save even fooled the goal-horn operator, who hit the siren at the time Cam Ward made the great stop.
