Fate of the Universe on the line, who takes the final shot?

[hamzarocks]

Igudala

 

[My3Sons]

Ray Allen says hi

No. It’s a reference to an ESPN show where they talked about the shot to save the universe in the NBA and for some reason Max Kellerman said Iguadola. Made little sense to me in a a league with Steph Curry but it was funny.

Kucherov on an empty net breakaway.

 

[pld459666]

Mike Bossy or Brett Hull

 

[NVious]

JT Miller

 

[King'sPawn]

It's not Jack Hughes if it's a penalty shot, I'll tell you that

But I'd pay to watch him!

 

[Forge]

But I'd pay to watch him!

Good comedy is worth it

 

[GoldenSeal]

Oh, that's easy: Pat Maroon

 

[Mike C]

Patrik Laine is the correct answer



Not surprising because of the distance that was the criteria

Because of Laine's emotional stability to handle the pressure, or because this is just a concept for a video game?

He's the best shot from distance, that's all. Statistical probability. I'm not going to imagine some attributes for who would be the calmest taking that shot. If you were looking for that, would be best to find a psychopath I guess?

This is an interesting idea, who did you have in mind?

I don't know the players well enough to assess that

Nuge, obviously…

Mario Lemieux

Fate of the universe is on the line, I'd hope the other team lets us score. So really anyone?

 

[nowhereman]

If you want a guy who scores in the biggest of moments, when the games matter the most, you go with Crosby.

 

[On The Prowl]

If its a penalty shot McDavid, if its from further out it would have to be either Matthews or Laine.

Over the last five NHL seasons the top 3 players in shooting percentage are:

Draisaitl- 19.7%
Point-19.2%
Sam Reinhart-18.2%

You just pick the highest guy here.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Tortorella takes Laughton or Cates over any skill guys because he hates anything but safe

 

[Markster]

I'll take Chris Kyle, the inspiration behind American Sniper. He was a one shot kind of guy.

 

[North Cole]

Fate on the universe on the line and you're picking a leaf? Good joke.

Point leads the league in game-winning goals, has done so previously (as has Draisaitl), and (unlike Drai) has consistently come through in the biggest games. The ONLY reason he isn’t the obvious answer in this thread is because the OP specified a long shot and Point does most of his scoring from short to medium range.
