i was reading earlier (but lost it) that the NHL is discussing making OT 10 minutes long because no one likes shootouts.

i personally miss the tie, so if they want to make OT longer and eliminate the shootout, im cool with that.

anyways, anyone else heard anything? i cant find the tweet with the link :(

This is talk about extending the OT before the shootout.

They won't go backwards, the shootout is staying to decide games. Never will they have ties again.

I like shootouts. It's 3-point games I hate.

I like the pointsystem of the IIHF WC.

3 points for a regulation win 2 points for a win after OT/ SO (the nhl will keep it) 1 point for a OT/SO loss

I'd be OK with 3-point games if they were all 3-point games.

I dislike ties more than I dislike shootouts but I'd certainly rather the game was resolved during team play.

I'd welcome something like
-5 minutes 4 on 4
-5 minutes 3 on 3
- Shootout

this would be better than the current system. Just ridiculous that some games are worth 150% of others in the standings.

I can't see the NHLPA ever approving a 10-minute overtime. I don't want that either, personally.

I saw something yesterday that said they are considering changing the 5-minute OT to 3 on 3. That could be fun.

Apparently Ken Holland advertises this format. Other GMs don't like it.

I think 3-3 could be fun but I've never seen it, so I'm not sure.

I agree with the above posts that the NHL should go the IIHF way and make regulation wins 3 points, OT/SO wins 2 points and OT/SO loss 1 point. With this system teams would have incentive to go for the win in the 3rd period instead of securing the 1 point.
