They don't have shootouts in the NHL. It will forever be the worst way to settle a game. I am firmly planted in that opinion. Nothing irritates me more in hockey than a shootout. You play as many overtimes as you need. Someone will eventually win.
The only time shootouts should be used is in houseleague when you have a time limit on the ice.
