best shooters for shootout

[jrhky36 1]

i remember datsyuk hanging marty turco out to dry on a breakaway. i look forward to seeing him do some thing new in a shootout. the good thing about shootouts is shooter will have to come up with new moves, and that is a good thing.

who you guys think will score the most in a shootout

my choice is: datsyuk

[dietzie27 0]

kovalchuk, or viktor kozlov........that guy is sick with the puck.

If I had to pick three guys I'd probably go Kovalev, Jagr, Datsyuk.

Big Bert can light the lamp easily, same with Naslund.

Mario, Naslund, Jagr. No real order, though. Mario is just mario and is still effective on the breakaway, Naslund is just completely unpredictable and shifty as hell on the breakaway, and Jagr is just a freaking superstar. He can shoot from positions that would put just about every other NHLer on his face or ass.

Sakic, Sundin and I'll save a spot for Bure.

There's so much new talent in the league....I think we will see some rookie surprises...outside of Ovecheckin, Crosby, Bergeron....guys like Richards with Philly, and Perezoghin for the Habs who scored on the breakaway, and showed a lot of moves all night.

I think with the way the game is being played, there will be a lot more practice focus on sniping and moves so some players will regain some offensive prominence who had become defensive "role" players.

[Furyan 1]

Datsyuk, Frolov, Sasha Ovechkin.

P.S. Ow! Eugene Malkin! :D

Sundin and Williams on the wings have impressed me from what I've seen.

If I'm not mistaken Perezhogin was 2-3 in SO's in preseason.

naslund, datsyuk, jagr

I think I'll put St. Louis up too, and Bergeron after pre-season.

Edit- How could I forget Jerome with the snapper?

[SR27 0]

Jagr, Naslund, Forsberg

[Kovy_Ribs_Fedo 3]

Kovalev-Datsyuk-Mogilny/Samsonov/Fedorov/Kozlov/Kovalchuk/Jagr

[shute 4]

i think most of the guys here have listed them all but i would like to add maxim afinogenov... i've seen some crazy stuff from that guy as well

Over the course of the season you want someone who is going to mix it up and bit and not just deke/shoot everytime, Naslund comes to mind right now away despite not being particularly flashy.

[notorious#29 0]

Hejduk, Datsyuk, Sakic.

im a huge flames fan and iggy is one of my favourite players, but that guy cannot score on a breakaway or in a shootout.

Good to see nobody picked Mario, Ziggy and Crosby.

[Tanner23 0]

Kovalev, Bertuzzi and Samsonov

[Michael9 57]

Datysuk, Jagr, Naslund

but there are plenty of other great players

[cobrAA 0]

Dastuyk(for sure),Naslund, sakic(he is my idol...if not i would have choose kovalchuk)

[twiztidwrista10 3]

Hejduk, 2/2 in the penalty shots.

[Kovy_Ribs_Fedo 3]

Kovalev was 4 in 4 in pre-season.

[Eazy_b97 1]

Has Dats scored in a SO in the pre-season? I think the Leafs blanked him in both games.
