WSH@VAN: Lindgren scrambles back to the net and makes a diving save

You're not going to get a puck by Charlie Lindgren from center ice. Looks like he would rob you of a base hit into the gap, also.

The Washington Capitals goalie made a spectacular diving glove save inside the final 90 seconds of a game against the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday.

With the Capitals trailing 2-1, Lindgren was set to vacate the crease for an extra skater, but the Canucks gained possession in the neutral zone.

Canucks forward Phillip Di Giuseppe took aim at the open net, but Lindgren recognized the change in possession and skated back toward the net. What followed was a diving catch that would make both Superman and Ozzie Smith jealous.
