DSP and Orpik were our two best players - can’t believe I said that.

They both played well

That was a sweet game winner too. He nailed the top right corner as perfect as could be. I've never had any issue with Ovie near the top of the rotation for the shootout. Why would you, he has a killer shot?
ArJunaZ:
I thought Vrana was going to score another sick goal on that breakaway.

I just think there are better guys that can stick-handle better and get pucks by in the shootout format. Ovi is a great scorer but I don’t think his stats in the shootout are that good.
My order would be Oshie, Kuznetsov, Backstrom, then I would think hard about Eller and Buro before Ovi. That will never happen though because Trotz doesn’t want to blowup the team hierchy - maybe rightly so. I would still put Ovi 4th though.
Maacoshark:
I think Ovi would be my 4th option behind the 3 guys you mentioned.
