I’ve always felt and still strongly feel that a penalty shot should result in a 2 minute PP if they don’t score.

Just like I never understood why a penalty gets waved off if you score on a delayed penalty.


This is likely the rule I have argued should be changed the longest and most often. Especially with goalies getting so much better on breakaways.


5 out of 27 penalty shots have gone for goals this season (not counting OT - according to the broadcast)


Yep, I caught that. So 18.5%. Oilers PP is currently at 31.8%. Only 9 teams in the NHL are below the 18.5% mark.


It’s dumb - it’s only the most egregious of penalties that yield penalty shots, yet it gives you one of the lowest chances of converting.

You get a free shot, you don’t score, then you are on the PP.

Ditto for the delayed penalty - not sure why you scoring absolves my infraction.
