VIDEO: Avalanche's Varlamov robs Kings' Toffoli with toe save

Perry Nelson / USA Today

Semyon Varlamov wasn't able to steal a win for the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday when the team was outshot 26-10 against the Los Angeles Kings, but he gave Colorado a chance with saves like this beautiful toe stop on Tyler Toffoli in the second period.

Toffoli collected a rebound in the slot and moved the puck to his forehand to slide it around Varlamov, who was already down after making the initial save. The Avalanche netminder kicked out his left leg to get his skate in front of Toffoli's shot.

The Kings prevailed 3-1 thanks to a late goal by Marian Gaborik.
