MODERATORS
I'd rather personally see the 3-point system like exists in Europe for this. At least the whole system would be zero-sum at that point.
Plus the last 10 minutes of every game won't be so bloody conservative. Teams will want to go for it
Can you please explain how that works?
3 points for a win in regulation, 2 for a win in OT, 1 for a loss in OT, and 0 for a loss in regulation. Because the OT winner would lose a point compared to winning in regulation, you wouldn't have games that are suddenly worth more, compared to the current system where a game yields a total of 3 points if it goes to OT, and 2 if it doesn't.
I believe it's basically what hock already has, but regulation wins are three points.
As far as I know giving regulation wins 3 points to keep number of points possible per game constant would never have changed the standings in a meaningful way.
