Also I have not seen it mentioned but Malkin actually went 8 of 8. It wasn't clear that he had hit the 4th target and he shot again and hit it in the first round. Even though it didn't count it was too bad it wasn't on the 2nd round for another 4 of 4.

That adds a lot of shots that are just thrown towards the net hoping for a deflection or rebound...which on a team with no net presence, leads to a lot of easy saves.
This.
