Hes got a 100% save rate. Best in the nhl lol

[hermanwooster]

He's an accountant? No wonder he's so good.

He specializes in savings.

[leagueleaders]

The players congratulating him was cool they really were legit excited for him.

[jibbymarket]

He no longer has to say "I could have gone pro" to his friends

[nik_hffmnn]

The crowd went nuts after every single one of his saves. Gets me so hyped and maybe a little teary eyed

[bertski]

he woke up an accountant...and went to bed a storied goalie and a YT phenom.

When you dont study for the test but you get an A

[TheBehm]

“He’s the emergency goalie who could have been used in either team tonight”
Me: “that makes him a mercenary goalie!”

[tlotpwist]

Not suprised, he's an accountant after all
He won't let anything pass his scrutiny

[MichaelPGilbert]

I'm not even kidding this is one of the greatest moments in NHL history. Surreal.

[TheEmpressMouse]

He got mentioned by the NHL when he gave the summary of the season speech. He also got to go to the NHL awards and be a co-presenter for the Goalie of the Year Award. Pretty awesome.

50 years time he's hanging out with mates . . . "Yeah so I played 14 minutes of NHL as a goalie after their 2 were injured, made 7 clean saves, conceded no goals, and ensured victory . . . nothing special just there for fun and free drinks!" What a legend!

[lordboombastic]

"WHY DIDN'T YOU COMPLETE THE EXPENSE REPORTS?"






"i was busy making my nhl debut"

[alexknight]

You can tell he hasn't played in a while because he has all of his teeth.

[ethan]

The other teams coach was probably yelling at them like crazy

[kristofevarsson]

Can you imagine being unable to score on an emergency backup goalie who never played a game before? Best flex. That dude deserves free drinks forever.

[danieljoseph]

This is the coolest rule/policy in professional sports

[spg]

(Foster steps in) "haha who's this guy?"
(7 saves later) "WOAH WHO'S *THIS* GUY?"

[mgraysonhay]

You know, the most impressive thing about this emergency NHL debut, he actually made some really good saves in this performance! This guy stopped the best in the sport and some of them were great scoring chances!

[simunator]

only allowed to be utilized once in every 4-5 seasons because of how OP he is
