<P> In ice hockey , a penalty shot is a type of penalty awarded when a team loses a clear scoring opportunity on a breakaway because of a foul committed by an opposing player . A player from the non-offending team is given an attempt to score a goal without opposition from any defending players except the goaltender . This is the same type of shot used in a shootout to decide games in some leagues . </P>
