Hurricanes goalie Pyotr Kochetkov made a fearless save during a penalty shot from Senators’ Brady Tkachuk, resulting in a fair bit of fury from Ottawa’s captain.
As Tkachuk approached the goal, looking to make a move to get past Carolina’s goaltender, Kyochetkov alertly and unexpectedly sprung forward and attempted a diving poke check.
His attempt was successful, as he poked the puck loose from Tkachuk’s stick, denying the penalty shot. After colliding with Kyochetkov, the Senators star was sent spiraling toward the boards behind the goal.
