VIDEO: Patrick Eaves’ Shootout Technique Could Use A Little Work

In the late rounds of a shootout of a tense game between Nashville and the Detroit Red Wings, Patrick Eaves was called upon by Detroit to attempt a shot. Before his attempt, the announcers praised Eaves’ shot-making ability, and Eaves would quickly make them pay.

↵Here’s a quick list of things Eaves could have tried that would have been equally as effective as his whatever-you-want-to-call-that:

  • ↵↵Aimed a slapshot into the middle of the crowd
  • ↵Thrown his helmet at Nashville goalkeeper Pekka Rinne
  • ↵Stayed sitting on the bench, pretending not to hear anybody while he doodles in a Transformers coloring book
  • ↵Retired
