We can go back and forth as to why he didn't make the save, the fact is he didn't and it was a fluke, he did the right thing and just didn't execute.

How could he be doing the right thing when he said he thought it was a pass? I am not going back and forth with you about why he missed the save I am just reading from Leighton himself on why he missed the goal!
They lost in the Cup finals! It wasnt like the 2nd round or something its the Finals!! Was it cool when the Eagles lost the Superbowl that they could have won? After everything this team went through to get there and loose it like that on home ice! To have the other team come into game 6 Wed with the parade already setup for Friday, and for that team to beat you on a **** goal like that when you had all the momentum in the game! Thats what I am still heated about.. They skated around our home ice with there little Blackhawk flag and then talked **** on our fans for not cheering them when they were on the ice!! We cheered for them when the anounced that the cup was won by the Hawks but after that I aint cheering for you!
If that doesnt hurt you at all as a Philly fan then I dont know whats wrong with you!! This team will be rememberd as a team that withstood so much but in the end fell short! A team that wasnt suppose to be in the finals. Thats the way I will remember this team. Was a great run That ended on the worst goal I have ever seen to win a stanley cup. When my daughter asks me in the future about the 2010 Flyers thats what I will tell her. It was such a bad goal that only 2 players new it went in. the player that shot it and the goalie that gave it up!!
