KHL goalie ignores live play to take sip of water

Andrei Gavrilov is either extremely confident, or simply absent-minded.

The Salavat Yulaev goaltender nearly gave up an embarrassing goal in the KHL on Friday when he was caught taking a drink of water with his back turned during an oncoming rush by Dinamo Misk.

No one will dispute the fact that his opponents deserved to lose after failing to convert, and sure enough, Salavat hung on for a 2-1 victory.
