Luck is so overrated a team in sports. When you hit a post in overtime and lose in a shootout it's not bad luck you lost as that same shot next game would be a post again. Missing the net is missing the net. Just as a goaltender isn't lucky when he get's beat and the shot hits the post as the shooter missed the net and it matters not if he hit the post or misses by 5 feet. Every team gives up breakaways, every team gives up the odd soft goal, every team gets the odd bad bounce. When a team is continually giving up breakaways, soft goals, and having bounces go against you it's not bad luck it's because they are a bad team.
