Chris Minard with a slapshot shootout goal as the winner. First time I've seen that, whatever works though. Ryan Potulny with a nice deke shootout goal as well.
I also never knew they did rounds of 5 in the shootout in the AHL either.
I like that, actually. I've never been fond of the 3-round shootout. It puts so much emphasis on the first shooter; one miss and you're so far behind already. I like that 5 shooters gives them more of a chance to score, and a little less emphasis on goaltending.

I don't mind it either. Takes a little bit of the pure luck factor out anyway.
I check the site everyday because they have a wide range of sports options, especially tennis. This is the first time I've seen this many ahl games though.
I think this is reflective of the demand for online streaming of pro hockey in general given the subsidiary coverage that it receives in the US. People can't watch it on cable, so where do they look? The Internet.
