Three skaters per team take shots on the opposing goalies, as opposed to the five in international and minor-league competition. The team with the most goals during their three shots is declared the winner. However, if the same number of goals are scored by both teams during the shootout, a sudden death shootout is begun, as in international competition.
The teams alternate taking penalty shots, until one team scores and the other does not, thus producing a winner. All players except goalies on a team's roster must shoot before any player can shoot twice. The shootout is not used in the playoffs for any North American minor league. Instead, 20 minute overtime periods are used until a single goal is scored. Strategy is considered to be very important during penalty shots and overtime shootouts for both the shooter and the goalie.
Both shooters and goalies commonly consult their teammates and coaches for advice on the opposing player's style of play. Shooters often consider the goalie's strengths and weaknesses such as a fast glove or stick save , preferred goaltending style such as butterfly or stand-up and method of challenging the shooter. Goaltenders often consider the shooter's shot preference, expected angle of attack, a patented move a shooter commonly uses and even handedness of the shooter.
Most shooters attempt to out-deke the goalie in order to create a better scoring chance. Louis are examples of players who commonly use this strategy. However, it is not uncommon for a shooter to simply shoot for an opening without deking. This is commonly referred to as sniping. This is most commonly performed when a goalie challenges a shooter by giving them an open hole by keeping a glove, pad or stick out of position or being out of sound goaltending position all-together to tempt the shooter to aim for the given opening.
Underrated Cardinals defense gets plus matchup against a backup QB. Greg Joseph and the Vikings should have plenty of field goal opportunities vs. Dalton Schultz looks to bounce back in Week 10 vs. A plus matchup vs. How are the Bulls winning with defense?

James Conner looks to stay hot with another favorable matchup. Home NHL. The additional point for overtime was introduced because of the reduced number of players on the ice and the shootout. Before overtime was instituted in the NHL, a team would get a point for a tie.
It seemed unfair and too wide of a gap to penalize a team who had played 60 minutes of quality hockey to get to a tie game and then penalize them the extra point for losing at a portion of the game that was not normal hockey ie 5-on-5 hockey. The 3-on-3 and shootouts are definitely modern and recent innovations in the game; the NHL still does not like the idea of a team gaining two points to zero if a game is won in this manner,.
In the playoffs, if a game is tied after 60 minutes of regulation play, it will continue by adding an additional 20 minute period at the same 5-on-5 strength until a goal is scored and a winner determined. When the regulation time ends, and the score is tied, the teams are able to take a minute intermission to clean the ice and let the players rest.
When the intermission is up, the players will then play a whole additional period. If nobody scores after the 1st overtime period then there will be another intermission followed by a second overtime period. This pattern will continue until somebody scores. I mean how many overtime periods can there really be? Well, the answer to that is actually… A LOT. Most overtimes are decided within the first overtime period, however it has not been uncommon for there to be multiple overtime periods.
The record for additional overtime periods is six! In fact, in the playoffs Tampa Bay and Columbus had a playoff game that added on 5 additional overtime periods, which ended more than 6 hours after puck drop.
Do players get points for goals and assists scored in overtime or the shootout? Players do get points for goals and assists scored during the overtime period, and the goalies statistics save percentage , Goals against average will also be affected. However, any goal scored during the shootout will not be reflected on the players personal stats or against the goals personal stats. Are there overtime or shootout specialists in the NHL?
The coach will want to usually put out their top offensive players who can skate the best. There is so much open ice that these highly skilled players can create so many scoring chances. Players who are a little bit slower have a hard time trying to keep up with the fast moving 3-on-3 play.
For the shootout, there is definitely more of a shootout-specialist feel. Most often, teams will simply use their best scorers; but, some teams definitely have players who may not score that much during the season but who are excellent in shootout opportunities.
Hi Wayne. Appreciate your site! Wondering how, and why, what I just saw happened. Just this year, they added for Preseason games that the coaches have the option to include shootouts, for practice and for the fans.
There was a Kracken game this preseason that also included a shootout after a win. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
