@CoreyPerrySucks umm. if that glove wasn't there that puck was going top shelve. Datsyuk is just usually used to a gaping net. But, if you look at this same move on previous attempts his shot goes in at the same angle. And you can tell it was going to be roofed. Too bad the glove got in the way.
@CoreyPerrySucks but you gotta give smith some credit that he didn't completely fall for the deke. watch vokoun and turco on that – they are somewhere at the opposite sideboard as the puck is shot. even i as a wings fan have no problem in complimenting smith on the save.
I'm not saying this wasn't a good save but Datsyuk didn't lift the puck as high as he usually did on the deke from what I see so I would say Mike Smith got lucky?

his foot work is unreal

Amazing save.
His hands move so fucking fast.
Wow, Smith bit pretty hard on that too, I thought that was a sure goal. Great recovery, fantastic save.
lpl
lol, suck on dat' classy gay ass coyotes
VERY impressive.
Too bad he gets dominated two rounds in the shootout later…
"Suck on that" the announcer is just mad cause datsyuk owns the coyotes in playoffs.
Smith probably did his research and knew what was coming from Dats. However, he failed to do his research on Bert's signature move.
As for the "suck on that" comment. That was Tyson Nash. A guy who never amounted to shit in the NHL.
hey guys! check out my channel to see funny sledding vids so maybe like or favorite them but more importantly WATCH them!! thanks!

I guess that's what being 6'4 will do for you.
Nice save but he still kinda shot it at him

He's done this move successfully for over half a decade. It was bound to be saved by an NHL goalie sooner or later.
Smitty? Suck on that? It'll be funnier when Phoenix won't have a team by next year and he'll be out of a job.
The datsyukian deke has been denied… THE WORLD IS ENDING
@oehieze SANTA'S NOT REAL!!! HOLY FUCK!!!
The announcer, dumbass.
Also Zetteberg got him back the next they met I believe which was pretty funny, cause Babcock was so unfazed by it.
Lol now I know why Giroux called it the "Datsyuk".
who advanced to the WCF????

This video isn't real. This is a visual interpretation of Mike's best wet dream.
this is to hightlight the save not the game! the best deke artist in the game got gloved!
Amazing save by Smith, but Datsyuk will know to check the five-hole next time! – A Reasonable Hockey Fan
He gloved it as the puck was going up. Your comment was 2 months ago but whatever lol
Datsyuk just did not get it elevated high enough
no mike smith just had his fucking glove practially on Datsyuks blade,lucky fucking save
His glove was in the right place datsyuk couldn't elevate it anymore
In a interview a little after this, Datsyuk said because of this save is why he try's to elevate more to xD
I'm a huge Datsyuk fan but holy shit Smith robbed him
Going back and reading all the datsyuk fanboy comments now that he's gone
