How cool.....I need to see this one.

After 15 rounds, when Malik dropped that pass between his legs and flipped it over Kolzig's shoulder, the play-by-play announcer lost it.. hahaha, that was great, I was laughing a good five minutes after that.. Malik's stoic expression was even more funny, like a comedian delivering a punch-line while the crowd roars..

Oh man, I like this new hockey so far..

 

[bigdong]

novice question - can each player only be used once during shootout? what if you run out of players?

 

[Fishhead]

Beginning to NOT like the shootout.


Find it boring actually, believe it or not.

.
(NEW for 2005-06) During regular season games, if the game remains tied at the end of the five (5) minute overtime period, the teams will proceed to a shootout. The rules governing the shootout shall be the same as those listed under Rule 30 - Penalty Shot.

(NOTE1) The Teams will not change ends for the shootout. The visiting Team will shoot first. The teams shall alternate shots.

(NOTE 2) Three (3) players from each team shall participate in the shootout and they shall proceed in such order as the Coach selects. All players are eligible to participate in the shootout unless they are serving a ten minute misconduct or have been assessed a game misconduct, gross misconduct or match penalty.

(NOTE 3) Once the shootout begins, the goalkeeper cannot be replaced unless he is injured. No warm up shall be permitted for a substitute goalkeeper.

(NOTE 4) Each team will be given three shots, unless the outcome is determined earlier in the shootout. After each team has taken three shots, if the score remains tied, the shootout will proceed to a "sudden death" format. No player may shoot twice until everyone who is eligible has shot.

(NOTE 5) Regardless of the number of goals scored during the shootout portion of overtime, the final score recorded for the game will give the winning team one more goal than its opponent, based on the score at the end of overtime.

(NOTE 6) The losing goalkeeper will not be charged with the extra goal against. The player scoring the game winning goal in the shootout will not be credited with a goal scored in his personal statistics.

(NOTE 7) If a team declines to participate in the shootout procedure the game will be declared as a shootout loss for that team. If a team declines to take a shot it will be declared as "no goal".

Does anyone know if the backup goalie is consider a eligible player in the shootout?

That was an AWESOME goal! By a schmuck who hadn't scored all year, threw the legs and top shelf. Love it!

And he still has not scored all year, he keeps that streak alive since shootout goals dont count as goals in players regular stats.

 

[Wrigley]

Anyone have a video link to the goal that won it some guys at my work would love to see it I cant find one.

Fun to watch but they have no business deciding a game. They should have them in every game after the game as an exhibition with prizes at the end of the year for the best scorers and goalies... but teams will miss the playoffs based on their shootout records and that's crazy.
