Watch: Bernier makes incredible diving save on Severson

Jonathan Bernier couldn't lift his Colorado Avalanche to a victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday afternoon, but that doesn't mean his efforts weren't admirable.

The veteran goaltender made a spectacular stop on Devils defenseman Damon Severson early in the third period, recovering after being caught out of position and lunging across the crease to deny him with the trapper.

Here's another look at how much net Severson had to shoot at when he received the pass from Adam Henrique.

The play was briefly reviewed to determine if the puck crossed the line in Bernier's glove, but the save was ultimately upheld.

He made several more slick saves later in the period, finishing with 35 on 39 shots in the 4-1 defeat.
