Hockey Shootout Proof
Over at my hockey message board, I've gotten in somewhat of an argument with another poster who insists that you are more likely to win if you put your best shooter in a shootout first.
Here are the parameters, and I need a proof more or less of why it doesn't matter. Two teams in a shootout. The only two possible out comes are WIN or LOSE. It does NOT matter if you win 2-0 or 2-1 or 3-1 or 2-3 et cetera. Furthermore, if a team is up 2-0 going into the third round, the last shooter does not shoot. (They seem to be getting that since you are more likely to lose 2-0 if you put your best shooter last, then you are more likely to lose period.) Here's the link to the thread if anyone cares. http://www.letsgopens.com/scripts/ph...pic.php?t=9839 |
