Shootout problem

I noticed in the shootout summary for a game between LAK and SJS that either the shootout did not end properly, or the summary did not show the full list of shootout attempts. The screen shot below is taken from a game in which LAK won the shootout. You can see that LAK scored the last goal on the list, but they also had the first shot in the shootout. This should not happen. The team that shoots second should always have another shot after their opponent scores a goal to go up by one.

Having seen no errors in the shootout summaries of other games, I suspect that the problem is in how the shootout list is being displayed. For this game, there were quite a few attempts, so maybe the list was cut off at either the top or the bottom.This display is what appears after leaving a completed game and viewing the summary.

Yeah, that's the most likely explanation, it ran out of space. There was a problem with shootouts ending at the wrong point in...FHM2, I think. But that's been fixed for a long time. I'll see if we can increase the number of lines the shootout summary can display.
