Unfair because players will be tired for the next game? Deal with it, every other sport does. And nothing stopping a team from playing more than the same 9 guys in the OT.
I can't stand the argument that a closer loss should be rewarded.
If you feel you must, end it after 20 minutes and call it a tie. Maybe you'd get 2 or 3 of those a year across the whole league.

Yeah, BBall has no extra point and they have a shorter active bench than hockey teams. Baseball teams don’t necessarily work as hard but they have way more games, and they play on and on.
The shootout is a stupid way to end it, as well. At 3 on 3 I doubt any game would go on for more than 20 minutes.
