Pittsburgh Penguins' Evgeni Malkin(notes) (71), of Russia, celebrates with teammate Matt Cooke(notes) after scoring the game-winning shootout goal against Detroit Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard(notes) in an NHL hockey game in Pittsburgh, Sunday, Jan. 31, 2010. The Penguins won the shootout 2-1.

While the Pittsburgh Penguins are unbeaten in shootouts this season, Evgeni Malkin usually skips them. He's tried skating fast and skating slow, shooting backhanders and forehanders and between the pads, all with little success. Maybe beating the much-disliked Detroit Red Wings with an excellent move will change the reigning NHL scoring champion's outlook about one-on-one competition.
