#Dwayne Roloson's astonishing save sequence for Islanders

There's a still image that stays with you during the various slo-mo replays of New York Islanders goalie Dwayne Roloson's two remarkable saves against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday night: The 40-year-old netminder clutching the top of the cage with his glove hand to swing his body across the crease and rob Todd Fedoruk of a goal.

It would be an incredible save on its own; combined with his goal-line stick save on Steve Downie a split second earlier, it becomes one of the best goaltending moments of the year:

Kudos to the on-ice officials and Toronto's video officials for getting the call correct.

The second save is the more compelling highlight, but that stick save was of a Matrix/Neo quality of savvy confidence.

Roloson would make 24 saves in what turned out to be a 4-2 loss by the Islanders to the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning; none better than the two he made in the clip above. Miikka Kiprusoff has company in the "save of the year" competition.
