I think you don't get the point if you pull the goalie and get scored on in OT.
Oh shit. Yeah you may be right. Didn't the Wild win a couple with the goalie pulled last year? They changed that? You earned that point getting to overtime, you shouldn't lose it, that's a stupid rule in my opinion. You always use the best strategy to win the game, you shouldn't get penalized for using strategy. Ridiculous in my opinion.

Apparently it's a super old rule from when there were ties. This rule was to prevent both teams from pulling the goalie avoid the tie.

I hope they change the rule. I also hope they make it so if any team pull the goalie in OT, it gets interesting for both teams.

Nice to see them need the PP to come through and it come through for once. Liked Zary at C for the most part, needs to get a little stronger and a little faster.

It was implemented when they started giving the loser point, to prevent teams from pulling their goalie because there would have been nothing to lose if teams pulled their goalies in OT
