During the clash between Western Conference-leading Dallas and East power Washington, Stars forward Eric Nystrom came through with a magnificent individual effort. Nystrom skated down the right side, jammed on the breaks and wristed a shot past Michal Neuvirth while soaring by Caps defenseman John Carlson.
Flyers netminder Ilya Bryzgalov delivered arguably his nicest save since joining his new team in a matchup against the Blue Jackets. Bryzgalov snagged a Samuel Pahlsson shot out of mid air with a quick glove save.
Earlier in the week, Dion Phaneuf made a bid for the best hit of the season against the Boston Bruins. Seems like the Toronto Maple Leafs hard-hitting captain is up for that distinction every week. In this instance, Boston's Chris Kelly skated into the Toronto zone where Dion Phaneuf stepped up and sent Kelly flying to the ice.
ERIC NYSTROM - DIVING GOAL AGAINST CAPITALS
