It's only one small clip, but man does that feel weird and gimmicky to me. I think I might hate it

Should just get rid of OT. Game ends in a tie. Both teams earned the result. One point each onto the next game.
3 on 3 OT sucks. The shootout sucks.

I just heard that Kelly McCrimmon just put the red line at T-Mobile Arena on LTIR for a "flaky paint condition". Expected return to the ice should be early April '25. Sounds serious and totally legit.Only if we can circumvent the halfway line

I would rather go to a game where my team gets blown out 10-0 than it end in a tie.

This is something I've been asking for for years at this point. I hope the NHL does it.
God no. If anything make 3 on 3 until someone scores, but don't let them leave the zone on their own to regroup.

If you have to make a rule like this..... just bring back the shootout / tie / 4 on 4 then SO / whatever for regular season OT.
Your team is down 3-2. With 3 minutes left in the 3rd period they pull the goalie and are storming the o-zone. You walk out because you'd rather see your team lose than tie it up and get a point.
Yeah... I call BS.
You didn't lose, either. Both teams playing to a draw is not at all the same as a loss, but that's what you're suggesting it be treated as.

You lost in both scenarios, so makes sense. Would be entertaining to see teams tied push for a win rather than turtle for a tie point
I hate situational rule changes.
Go back to 5v5 Overtime + Shootout.
3 point games will solve all the problems of teams playing too passive.

I don't disagree.
But I hate 3v3 OT, and I hate the thought of changing the rules completely for 3v3 OT.
The entire reason we went ot 3v3 to begin with in 2005, were all those DPE era, games where both teams stopped playing to get a tie.
The NHL clearly doesn't want to get rid of the 2 point system.
But something like a 5 point system would make more sense. Because then we're ranking the importance of the wins.
5 points = Regulation win
4 points OT Win (1point to loser)
3 points = shootout win (2 points to loser).
I know it's dumb, but Regulation wins SHOULD be worth more than OT wins. and OT wins should be worth more than SO wins. And a SO win should be barely worth more than a SO loss.
Teams can play chintzy defensive hockey all they want in OT, but they'll be penalized for it.

I don’t mind 3 on 3. In the regular season you have to get it over with and it’s the best option they have to do that. I agree about the points system but that’s been a convo for over a decade now and it hasn’t happened so it is what it is. Will definitely never happen under Bettman.

The KHL has an experience with implementating of new rules. Before previous season they implemented the 3 seconds rule and having positive feedback, even from European leagues. They also tested that rule in MHL/JHL.

It’s fine if the tie was kind of rare, but it is not. The team I cheer for (Toronto) had 10 OTL and 33 regulation wins, 46 total wins. 13 games they won outside of regulation plus the 10 OTL. That is potentially 23 ties. I don’t want that. That’s too many. Sorry.
"DNF" But really, I think the point system should be dropped entirely and just go to W-L already.

I imagine the NHL will have interest in how this works. If it seems to be useful, they might try and get the AHL, or CHL to try this and then go for there.
The NHL wants to put their speed and skill at the forefront, so this would help that.
The OT now kind of sucks at times.
My Habs, for example are OK at getting position, but not skilled enough, or fast enough to take real advantage of it, so I've seen them turn ot in quick nap time with the amount of times they ragged that shit back to their own zone to try again.
It basically looked like a practice for attacking and the offensive team sucking ass and just skating back to try again.
