Something like this could happen in any NHL playoff game.

Oh yeah it can happen, but it never does. Officials usually put the whistles away in sudden death situations, and you rarely see one penalty called let alone three. Who knows when the last time there was actually a 4 on 3 in the NHL playoffs. Just not a good way to decide games of this magnitude.
