Mike Smith Makes Incredible/Stupid Save On Marian Gaborik

The Phoenix Coyote's Mike Smith makes an incredible save on Marian Gaborik in overtime of the game on January 10th. I don't understand how hard it is to lift the puck just a few inches off the ground, I've seen this so many times, All the player has to do is lift the puck over the stick or pads and its a wide open net but they just push it along on the ice. Maybe some of you hockey players can explain this to me.

@tyleracampora if you look at the replay the puck started to come off the ground but smith saved it

@rktaker A little but why not bury it up high, its obviously wide open.

@tyleracampora he didn't think that he had to because the net was wide open
