Definitely against a shootout. But the second the hub city is done, you scrap it.
Puck over glass is a brutal penalty, the only alternative I can think of is to treat it as an icing. But the majority of the time when it happens, it's in the offending team's zone anyway, so it's just giving them a free pass if it's not a penalty.

I'd rather them push back games than do 3 on 3 overtime in the playoffs.
There's no asterisk next to your name when you when a cup this year, but if they change OT rules in the playoffs to something other than 5 v 5, there's definitely going to be an asterisk.
