PROP approves change to ice hockey overtime format https://www.ncaa.com/news/icehockey-women/article/2020-07-22/prop-approves-change-ice-hockey-overtime-format The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel approved changes to the overtime format in men’s and women’s ice hockey, starting with the 2020-21 academic year. Under the new rule, all teams tied at the end of regulation will play a five-minute, 3-on-3 sudden-victory overtime period to decide a winner. If neither team scores, a three-person shootout could be used in conference games or in-season tournaments for advancement purposes. I think they blew it in this modern day with the virus. Should be happy with a full game played and call it a tie. Use the porposed overtime only for tournaments. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodbuster Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I know they're just informal scrimmages, but it's sure interesting reading Brad's re-caps of this summer's version of the coming year's team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post burd Posted August 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2020 I love hockey in general and the Sioux/Hawks especially, but I hope they put the health of the players, staff, and fans above my interest in cheering them on. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a 3-goal game during a pandemic with no fans in attendance should be called a mask-trick, and everyone in the arena who happens to be wearing a face covering should be required to throw theirs onto the ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad. I’ll take hockey in an empty arena over no hockey at all, but seriously when will this all get back to normal!

mikejm Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 With the NCAA kicking the can down the road on DII and DIII fall sports championships, and a growing number of DI schools cancelling their fall sports, I'm really wondering if there will be a hockey season. :-( 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfaninseattle Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Gotta think the season is looking unlikely. I can see a player or two in the NHL playoffs coming down with the virus and what then? End of playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proposal that was being mentioned as a possibility was league games start after Jan 1st with some non-conference games an option prior to that and a season "start" of Nov 1st. At this point, I'm just hoping that they can make something work, even if it means no fans being present at the games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t leave the bubble without a app saying they can. Each player has their own water bottle and Gatorade bottle on the bench. Towels in the bench or only one time use. NHL has the players following the guide lines why better then MLB has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iramurphy Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Hockey should be workable. Players will need to adjust. Refs will have to call a tight game. No taunting, no post whistle confrontations, no clearing players from in front of the net after the whistle. Players wear shields. Anyone who gets involved in pushing matches, fights, post whistle “clutching”, face to face jawing etc gets either 5 min major or game misconduct. Anyone who spits on another player is done for the year. Masks can be worn, especially on bench or penalty box. It’s drastic but if done I believe they can drastically decrease the risks enough to get the NCAA to sanction college hockey. Obviously there would need to be protocols for screening, testing, and protocols for positive cases. The chance of passing the virus to another person skating past them or near them during play is minimal. Minimize close contact time and it can be done. Initial thoughts and needs to be fine tuned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
