Jake Allen stretches out for spectacular glove save on point-blank shot

Save of the year candidate for Jake Allen.

Marko Dano's shot may have gone in the net for the Chicago Blackhawks, but it won't count thanks to the reach of goaltender Jake Allen. The Blackhawks forward had a wide-open net to shoot at, but the St. Louis Blues goaltender saved a goal with some left-hand larceny.

While it looks like Dano's shot may have broken the plane of the goal, there's no way to tell if his shot went completely over the red line thanks to Allen's glove. It's eerily similar to Ilya Bryzgalov's save on Evgeni Malkin in the playoffs a few years back, with no way of telling if the puck ever really crossed the line completely.
