The Shootout Attempt

The Shootout Attempt was a historical shootout attempt made by Senators winger Kaspars Daugavins in a game against the Boston Bruins on March 11, 2013 in Ottawa. Regulation ended with the game tied at 2-2 with no goals being scored in overtime. A shootout was needed to decided the game. After going three rounds undecided, Kaspars Daugavins was sent to center ice by then head coach Paul MacLean to shoot for the Senators. Upon arriving he placed the tip of his stick blade on top of the puck and started skating full tilt. As he arrived to the net he pulled a spin-o-rama but was denied by Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask. The Senators went on to lose the game.
