The decision on who shoots in the SO will have a couple factors
If a coach knows a guy is feeling it on any particular night, he might go that way regardless of previous results.
But moreso a lot of his decision is made in practice when they do these drills frequently. Guys who practice the best usually get the call...in most situations.
Could be as simple as Leivo has been really good during those SO drills whereas Johnny hasnt....so you go with what you've seen work everyday.
