Peter Budaj likely wants a mulligan on this shot from Jason Chimera. And he most definitely is going to retire the header stop move from his arsenal of tricks after this mistake that put the Islanders up 1-0.
A Kings goaltender attempted a header save that ended up in the back of his own net
The Islanders scored on their first shot because Peter Budaj got cheeky.
On New York’s first shot of the game from Chimera — a simple wrister from the far circle — the Kings’ goaltender attempted to make a standing save. It didn’t go exactly as planned.
The result? A whiffed header and the puck in the back of the net.
Best leave the soccer moves on the pitch, Budaj.
