Thanks for taking the time to put it together and present this info but we don't know how the games would go if 3 points were on the line to win in regulation instead of the potential 1 or 2 in OT/SO split.
I don't think we will ever really know because the league isn't likely to change it.
I truly don't understand why the insist on this system.
If anything it should make things more exciting all-around with late game pushes for 3 points especially in March and April when it's a dog-fight for playoff positioning.
