I don't know why there isn't a shootout goals competition that happens together with the goalie challenge. Like each division has 3 shooters who go 3 times each. I guess its unlikely no one player emerges the winner and then you have an endless tiebreaker.
Not sure what to do to make this more interesting. The hardest shot, fastest skater and hitting targets in fewest shots are actually cool competitions that have occasionally produced memorable results. Rest is pretty gimmicky.
