Can someone explain to me why on Yahoo, Marian Gaborik got the GWG yesterday for the Kings vs. Oilers match scoring the last two goals, but he was not credited with the GWG on Yahoo Fantasy?

Also, why did Ben Bishop get credited for a shutout when he made only 3 saves before being injured in the first? He wasn't credited for the win. Why wouldn't the shutout go to Lindback who had 25 saves and played most of the game?

This is really annoying me.
 
Kopitar got the GWG as he scored the goal that ultimately won the game. If Gaborik doesn't score either of those goals the Kings still win, thus the first goal is the GWG.

I am not sure on the SO one with Bishop. I assumed it was always a team shutout and no specific goaltender got credited with a SO

Ohhh that makes a lot of sense! So Marleau got the GWG last night too because he broke the tie that would have been the game winner regardless of any extra padding. Thanks for the clear explanation :nod:
