It's not that big of a deal, if they lose they facoeff they just have to chase the puck around for about 45 seconds and then get off and if the play is still going on 3 minutes or so later they can come out fresh and try to get it back if the team hasn't yet.
Or just immediately get the puck back after the other team shoots wide, dumps it in, fails a breakout, or many of the other random hockey plays that happen all the time.

Oops you forgot a random event. The one where we fish the puck out of the back of our net.
Hell the way you explain it we should just save our energy and not even try to win the faceoff

That’s one rare occurrence. That can also happen seconds after winning a faceoff and turning it over.

Jack actually does intentionally lose o zone faceoffs from time to time if you watch.
