Bettman's nefarious plan of giving NHL fans false hope is working. So many people in here looking on the "bright" side of losing 3 in a row because they were awarding a point for losing.
Flames lost three in a row, scored one goal a game, and didn't look good for long stretches doing it.
I love hockey and I'll continue to watch until I die, but the welfare points system and gimmick tricks to end regular season games is so dumb. Regular season should be W-L-T, 3 pts for a win. Reward teams that push for wins late in games, and punish boring ass teams that play for ties.
Playoffs are perfect as is.
