It's not every day a defenseman makes a game's best glove save.

That's how it went down Sunday in New York, however, as Rangers defenseman Dan Boyle had goalie Cam Talbot's back by diving at and stopping this Alex Ovechkin scoring chance.

Ovechkin had already scored for the Washington Capitals and probably never envisioned being robbed by the veteran defenseman.

Many goalies around the league would love to have a save that nice on their highlight reels.
