Would feel comfortable with Toews and/or Crosby in that format.
Crosby is such a smart shootout player, the kind of guy that might get stopped once but not twice. And Toews was in that situation before in the world juniors and went 3 for 3 on completely different moves.
Not so confident in Luongo or Price but as mentioned, with a 4 on 4 OT for 20 minutes there's a good chance it doesn't get there. If Canada wasn't feeling comfortable with a shootout they could go for broke in the OT and rush three guys up the ice on every possession and trade chances (like Canada juniors in 2010 in OT gold medal). It'd be a coin flip but at least it's a team-game coin flip not a skills competition.
