Watch: Holtby flies out of crease to break up Marner breakaway at blue line

Somewhere, Dominik Hasek is smiling.

In a risky decision, Capitals goaltender Braden Holtby decided to channel his inner Dominator by racing out to the blue line to break up a Mitch Marner breakaway by sprawling out in a full pad-stack and poking the puck away with his stick.

This tactic is certainly something you don't see much anymore these days, but it always leads to an entertaining moment. It turned out to be the right move, as the play came right after Toronto killed a 5-on-3, so momentum would have surely swung in favor of the Leafs had Holtby whiffed.
