There may be a lot of viewers out there now watching the NHL playoffs who don’t usually watch during the regular season. But as these videos courtesy of NHL.com show, the bottom line is this: Keep your eye on the goaltender. For the Vancouver Canucks’ Roberto Luongo, if he failed to make this save in Game 1 at home, the Kings would have won.

It also goes to show you how difficult a goalie’s stick can be (watch the video).

Then, in the video below, there is this goal by the Kings’ Drew Doughty in Game 3, when Luongo never saw the puck coming, even though he probably knew it was coming. All of which whets the appetite for Game 4.
