Seattle isn’t so good that Chicago should have less than 5 shots over halfway through the game.

Weird night with a lot of teams struggling to put up shots.

Yeah, Engvall and Liljegren both scored ... weird.

Oilers blow a late lead ... okay not weird.
Oilers win in overtime with Draisaitl and McDavid setting up Nurse ... okay not weird.

Some teams are surviving off 3 on 3 OT. This rule changes worked out really favourable for teams with only 3 good offensive players. It kills teams bad at 3v3 OT and higher depth/defensive teams. It doesn't make sense to design a team good on 3v3 because in the playoffs it's not played.

The NHL needs to go with 3 point regulation wins.

The Oilers have 5 regulation wins in 17 games. They have almost as many OT wins (4) as they do regulation wins.

The Bruins have 5 regulation wins in 18 games.

3 on 3 is a cheat code for the Oilers. Just get the game to OT.
