"It had been a while since Steven Stamkos scored during a shootout -- two full seasons to be exact.

The NHL's leading goal-scorer has been strangely unreliable during the post-overtime competition. He's 0-for-3 this season after going 0-for-7 last season. His last shootout goal came near the end of the 2009-10 season.

But Stamkos more than made up for it during the Tim Hortons NHL Elimination Shoot Out. He went 3-for-3 in the contest, beating Montreal's Carey Price twice and Boston's Tim Thomas once to win the event against 23 other shooters."
