VIDEO: Avalanche's Varlamov spins to deny Sharks' Thornton

The Colorado Avalanche were already down a goal when the San Jose Sharks began to circle again.

Forward Joe Thornton thought he had an easy goal, but Avalanche goaltender Semyon Varlamov had other plans.

Just short of break-dancing in the crease, Varlamov spun 540 degrees on his knees to scoop up the puck and leave Thornton looking skyward.
