WHAT gotta have Dags in there if he's playing. if not:

1. Kovalev

2. Zednik

3. Koivu

4. Ribeiro

5. Ryder

6. Perezhogin

Dags would slide in at the third spot in front of Ribeiro, who might switch with Koivu, depending on the night.

Based on what we've seen so far, I'd say

Kovalev

Dagenais

Perezhogin (Plekanec)

A play on C.C.Ryder and of course the great band.

Thanks I was a little lost there. There is another one BBR? Ribeiro?

Exactly, Saku also missed his shootout opportunity (ies?), it's going to be finishers who do the shootouts not playmakers.

About ten ties a year means a lot of points up for grab in those shootouts, of course mostly against EC teams. So working on this is good, nice to see Habs led by Kovalav are winning more shootouts then we are losing so far.

Kovalev would be a shootout player on any team in the league. His shot nis just so great and if there's an opening he can deke, too. But personally I hate deking on a penalty shots; it lowers your chances of a goal.

Dagenais has a nice shot and is 2 for 3 or something in the shootouts so far.

If Perezhogin makes the team he would be a good choice. He's already won us 2 shootouts with the final shot.

Ryder might be a good choice. He also scored a beautiful breakaway on Hasek last night.

Zednik is a goal scorer so he would be a top choice.

We have enough options not to worry. I wonder if any teams are using defenceman in the shootouts.
