The are suggestions that should be considered by the league. For me, I have no problem with tie results. The league operated that way for decades. But, fine, the league insists on W/L results. Then, I would suggest that there should NOT be 3 point contests and 2 point contests, and so, would like to see ALL contests be 3 points awarded. You can't get a regulation result? Fine, one point to each team, and the OT winner gets one more...but...regulation wins get 3 points. Net result, consistency in game value, and, teams that play to win get a reward...Moreover, incentive to not just take the air out of close games.
