Top 15 Shootout Goals in NHL history | NBC Sports

let’s be real, kane and datsyuk could’ve filled this list 1-15 themselves

I see a few comments that #1 (Malik) wasn't the best goal. I think context is super important to understand why it tops the list. It was the first year of the shootout and still early in the season. We weren't quite sure what to expect and some fans hadn't watched one yet. This was the first legendary moment that put shootouts on the map in the NHL. This was in the FIFTEENTH round, which stood as the longest shootout for quite some time. And since it was so many rounds deep, up steps MAREK MALIK, who ended his career with 33 goals in 691 games. For that player to pull that move at that moment was unbelievable. That's why it's a much-deserving #1.

Datsyuk’s hands were ahead of his time

I know the context matters, but Datsyuk’s flip is the best shootout goal of all time.

[justAman]

The fact that Pavel is the literal thumbnail should tell you everything you need to know. He was a once in a generation kind of player.

[aiden_olah]

Let’s just take a moment 3-15 of those were Datsyuk

[cameronpowell]

Everything about Malik’s goal is amazing. The set up, the announcers, the move/goal, the humble celly. Perfect.

[Olegio]

Приятно видеть что многие помнят и любят Дацюка. Всем привет из России.

[DizzyDez]

Me: Sees video title.
Me: Sure, I’d love to watch a Pavel Datsyuk highlight reel.

[geoffphillips]

Marek Malik’s wasn’t the most skilled necessarily but the fact that he is a defenseman in the longest (?) nhl shootout in history made it pretty darn extraordinary

[lucasd]

Every time I’d see Kane’s goal against Minnesota I cringe for the poor goalie

[johnm]

The first ever datsyuk deke is criminally underrated in this list

[NotSoCreepyPasta]

This should’ve just been a Pavel Datsyuk highlight reel.

[marcharris]

I sure do miss pavel. He was an amazing player.

[Matt.Savage]

I just came here specifically to make sure that Datsyuk was in this top 10 at least twice, and thankfully I was not disappointed. 😊

[DookieShes]

I still don't think people here in Detroit or in the NHL truly, fully appreciated how other-worldly Datsyuk was.

[Guizambaldi]

I'm not a hockey fan, and I never played the sport. But the most beautiful to me was #11, Pavel Datsyuk. He sort of fooled the goalie with handwork to the goalie's right, and with his footwork to the goalie's left, he opened a huge space to finish. The goalie was completely lost, he barely appear in the footage.

Amazing move.

[thewingedwheelwarrior]

If you’re taking about the greatest shootout players in history, Datsyuk has to be on top of the list

[justawinddown]

How is Crosby's goal ahead of Datsyuk and Giroux's??

[mataskirda]

kane and datsyuk are the only ones to make this list twice
