I like the 3 point system if you're going to have OT. I don't think a regulation loss equals an OT loss, so they shouldn't be worth the same thing (zero).

However, I hate the shootout. I would like to see a 3 on 3 OT and if no one scores, it ends a tie. So...

3 points for a regulation win
2 points for an OT win
1 point for an OT loss
0 points for a regulation loss

and if there is no OT winner, each team gets 1 point for the tie

So every game is worth 3 points, unless there is no OT winner, then it ends in a tie and only 2 points are awarded.
