90siouxfan Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Maybe shoot into the cup, most dents in 30 seconds win. I actually like watching 3 on 3 for the skills and dangles but it shouldn't decide the outcome. Quote

Makes sense for the regular season, especially in the NHL with so many games in a year. The only other counter proposal I’ve liked is a 10 min sudden death 5x5. In the context of NCHC play, no points simply for making it to overtime, all 3 pts to the winner if scored in the first 5 min, 2 pts to the winner (1 pt to loser) if scored between 5-10 min, if no winner after 10 min then each team gets 1 pt and the remaining 1 pt is sacrificed to the hockey gods. The premise being incentivizing teams for taking chances and scoring early in the overtime. Not perfect but better than a skills competition. I see scenarios where teams are on the bubble for home ice or the Penrose and taking huge risks early in OT if they need the full 3 points. Playoffs should always be 5x5. Quote

I say go to a college football style approach. Give each team a power play. Still tied go to 1 minute pp. Any shortie automatically wins. . Quote
