Nino Niederreiter amazing shootout at CHL skill competition

Team Orr's Nino Nierderreiter scores the goal of the night during the 2010 Showdown Breakaway Contest.
On his second attempt, Niederreiter, skating for Team Orr, threw his right glove at goalie Maxime Clermont and scored behind the distraction. The goal earned perfect 10 scores from three of the judges -- Windsor Spitfires defenseman and 2009 first-round Entry Draft pick Ryan Ellis; former NHL player and Windsor GM/owner Warren Rychel; and Rogers SportsNet's Rob Faulds. The toughest judge was former NHL enforcer and Windsor native Bob Probert, who gave Niederreiter a 9.

"The one-handed shot, I saw it the first time was Alex Kovalev, in the Warrior movie," Niederreiter told NHL.com. "He did the one-handed shot every time and I wanted to learn that." Kovalev never threw his glove at the goalie, which Niederreiter said was his own idea.

"He didn't do that, but I just tried something special today," he said.
