I'm not really sure how I feel about it. I guess if they have one overtime then it's not so tragic for them to do a shootout afterwards. However, it does seem kind of cheap.

They get a point for tieing the game in regulation.

I don't like it. I think it is dumb. Ties brought in a sometimes needed extra point. Now the loser of the shoot-out gets nota.

The loser of the shootout still get one point :erm2: But the extra point the winners get could make a standing difference.

Anyway, I hate them. Continuous OT so that there is never a tie I would be fine with but a shootout is awful. Penalty shots used to be exciting. Now I could care less when they happen because the shootout has taken any thrill that had away. After a hard played game it shouldn't come down to such a pathetic end that makes the rest of the game pointless.

Well what the hell was Simon talking about then? He said they didn't get a point for losing.

Continuous OT in the regular season would never fly; there's no coach in the NHL who would exhaust his guys like that just for a point in the standings.

So far, the shootout has been a huge success, but I have a feeling it's gonna get old before too long. I hadn't thought about whether they were bringing it over into the playoffs, but hearing that they're not, I'm very relieved. Playoff OT is the shit.
