The conventional wisdom is "shooters shoot, and dekers deke." The Blues & Hawks kept sending out shooters. Teams practice shootouts, but the puck tends to bounce after the overtime period. Going hard to the net can get a rebound, but rebounds don't count in shootouts.
I was a goalie. You can challenge a guy skating fast. Guys skating slower can move east-west quicker; that's harder to follow. Wanna surprise the goalie? Take a slapshot!
