Dustin Tokarski’s save probably cures cancer
January 1st, 2009In the dying moments of 2008, roughly three hours before the ball dropped in Times Square, the United States and Canada were playing in a rollicking back-and-forth game in the group stages of the World Junior Championships in Ottawa, and Dustin Tokarski made the unequivocal save of the year.
With the Canadians up 5-4, USA forward Colin Wilson, who has three goals and three assists in three WJC games to go with the 7-14-21 line he’s amassed in 16 games so far this year at BU, picked up a loose puck in the middle of the slot and had Canada’s Dustin Tokarski dead to rights.
Except not.
Canada went on to win 7-4 after a pair of empty-net goals.
I think Pierre McGuire may have had an orgasm over this save. Not that I blame him.
