VIDEO: Sharks' Antti Niemi robs Senators' Alex Chiasson with pad save

The San Jose Sharks are trying to stay afloat in the Western Conference playoff race and Antti Niemi is doing everything he can to help. 

Down a goal to the equally playoff-hungry Ottawa Senators, Niemi robbed forward Alex Chiasson in the second period to keep his team in the game. 

Kyle Turris fed Chiasson with a pass down low that looked like a tap-in, but Niemi stuck out his right pad to take away what looked like a sure goal. 

Niemi was also fortunate enough to have Tommy Wingels clear the rebound off the goal line.
