Are today's shootouts a bad omen for the future?

It's really hard to judge offensive performance in shootouts - Lehner is such an absolute sieve/pylon in net that just about every shot scores -  shootouts end pretty fast when the goalie is next to useless at them. 


I noticed he seems to be about as good (or bad) on breakaways as he is at shootouts.  He got scorched last night on a breakaway too.

Goes both ways. He's gotta be feeling quite a bit of pressure knowing if he lets in a single goal, he has no chance of achieving the best possible scenario available to us: the situation in which the shootout goes on infinitely with no one ever converting on their attempt.
