Certain ways, certain kind of fundamental things that anyone could kind of incorporate into their moves.

But really when it comes down to a shootout, there's a lot of feel to it.

You can't just make up your mind on what you're going to do and then just close your eyes and hope it works.

Yeah.

goalies are goalies are too good so you got to have a natural flow about how you make your moves to have a backup and then a second backup depending on what happens so um i mean there's no doubt in my mind shootouts are one of the like my favorite things in the world to do so i think i could help you know if anyone wanted a pointer i'm sure i could find figure something out but uh

There's also a natural component to it that I think the best in the game and the best that have been around are the ones that I'm sure we're going to see at least one shootout in the Olympics.

The ones that it comes a little more naturally to, those are the ones that will have the most success.

I'd say it's almost like the initial meeting, right?

So like for me, when I went to the Olympics, it was Blues, Blackhawks, it was Patrick Kane, right?

Probably our best player on the team.

And so when you first get there, you're like, hey, what's up, Kane?

What's up, Osh?

But like deep down, you're like, God, I was just like trying to kill you last week.

And so, but I think that's kind of maybe just for me, it was just like the initial meeting.

you know, meeting, kind of get over that awkwardness.

And then when you put on the jersey, I mean, representing your country, nothing comes closer to that.

And there's no easier way to bond than, you know, throwing on the red, white, and blue and going against Canada or something.

I'm absolutely a believer, so I can answer that one right away.

Their style of play is one of the only ones

I think right now that they can kind of play a similar playoff style year-round.
