Looks like that league does 3 points for a win, 1 points for an OT loss, and 2 points for an OT win. The NHL should do this.

Been in agreement with this plan for years

Extraliga does this too. It's why there was an 80+ point difference between Kladno and playoff teams.

I would tweak it a bit and bring ties back as one point to each team, eliminate SOs

That would incentivize going for the win for the extra point, i think....

3 Win
2 OT win
1 OT loss/tie

Makes winning in regulation most important?

kinda random but why is scoring through the roof compared to the late 2000’s-early 2010’s?

Obviously when Sid started they had stricter rules around interference, hooking, holding etc but even ten years ago Jamie Benn had the most points with 87. What changed?

Goalie pad restrictions?

Cheater hockey sticks? Give McDavid a Sherwood 5030

Goalie equipment has gotten way smaller and lighter. Sticks have become whippier. Forward talent has improved.

To be fair, so has skater equipment.

The difference between my Graf Supra G5 and my Bauer Vaporlites is hilarious. And we're only talking 17 years or so. The set of shoulder pads I have now, that I don't even wear, offer a lighter weight and level of mobility that is otherworldly compared to what I used in the early 2000s.

I would venture the guess that training routines are a bit better as well.

I’m very confused why Shea is back in the line up after we won but okay.
