Why not 3 pts for Reg win; 2 for win in OT & 1 for win in SO
I'm seriously looking for an explanation as to why the NHL/PA chose not to implement this. A Poll needs to be taken. What we have now (where both teams get at least a point) is so obviously counter intuitive I am truly baffled. I must be missing something. So please send me to a link that explains why before I think too much more about it. As an ex hockey player thinking was pretty much beaten out of me... so just tell me.
The OT 3 on 3 needs to change to 10 minutes to see more players get a chance.
With 3 pts for Reg Time victory there'll be less coasting to secure at least a point as is the case now (a lot) when there's less than 2 minutes to play in reg.
This change would also mean no points for losing... SO much better. Less incentive to "go easy" even in 3 on 3 OT as it gets close to ending.
Make the last part of regulation play far more "important" and "urgent", the 3 on 3 OT more "Target Oriented" and we get back to where it should always be... if you lose... you don't get points... woke or no woke. I call for a vote damn it!! Or please.
