Two-thirds of the world is covered by water. The other third is covered by Tampa Bay Lightning netminder Andrei Vasilevskiy, who proved once again on Monday that his flexibility and net coverage knows no bounds.
Vasilevskiy sprawled cross-crease during the second period to rob Bruins forward David Backes of what looked to be a surefire goal.
The 23-year-old Russian has been making saves like this all season en route to his first Vezina Trophy nomination.
