I haven't actually watched a game in a few years even tho Ive made a ton of bets on hockey the last few years. Anyways, Ive caught about 10 OTs in the last few days and I have to say the action is just absolutely amazing its gonna get me to buy tickets to a game before this season ends.
Was curious what the old school guys like lipps weeble and lerinkrat and such think about it
Also a few things, Id love to just see this go until a score instead of the shootout. I actually kinda like the shootout but the 3on3 blows it away
Is this the 1st year they've done this?
Is it just regular OT in the playoffs?
Is there any way the whole game could be like this, or maybe even 4on4 or would the guys just be gassed? Or am I now just talking about ruining the sport lol

THEY STARTED IT LAST YEAR AND IT HAS BEEN SOME OF THE MOST EXCITING HOCKEY WE'VE SEEN. IT'S ALL ABOUT PUCK POSSESSION. I'M A PURIST AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE OLD 20 MINUTE OT'S THAT MIRROR THE REG GAME, BUT IT DOES NOTHING TO BRING NEW FANS TO THE SPORT. AND YOU'RE COMMENTING/ QUESTIONING IS EXACTLY WHAT THE NHL WANTED, AS i'M SURE IF IT WAS A 20 MINUTE 5 ON 5, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MADE A BUNCH OF BETS.
DEFINITELY WOULDN'T WANT TO, NOR WILL WE EVER SEE THE ENTIRE GAME, IN FACT NO MORE THAN OT.
i COULD SEE THEM EXTENDING THE TIME, BUT THIS IS THE 2ND YEAR OF IT, AND IT WILL STAY THIS WAY NEXT YEAR.
IF YOU WATCHED THE ALL STAR GAME, THAT IS COMPLETELY PLAYED IN A MINI RR TOURNEY OF 3 ON 3.
I JUST HATE THE SHOOTOUT, WHICH IS WHY ID RATHER THEY KEEP PLAYING UNTIL SOMEONE SCORES. i THINK SINCE THEY STARTED IT, SOMEWHERE AROUND 75% OF GAMES END BEFORE GOING TO A SHOOTOUT, WHICH TO ME IS SO BOGUS, IT COMPLETELY TAKES AWAY THE TEAM ASPECT OF THE NHL. IT'S LIKE ENDING A NFL GAME WITH A FIELD GOAL CONTEST, AN MLB GAME WITH A HOME RUN HITTING CONTEST AND AN NBA GAME WITH A FREE THROW CONTEST.
IT'S FUN TO WATCH, BUT NOT A FAIR WAY TO DECIDE THE OUTCOME OF A TEAM GAME THAT'S BEEN PLAYED FOR 65 MINUTES. YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT EACH IND TEAMS 5 OF GAMES THAT GO TO OT AND MAKE SMALL WAGERS ON THAT. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR BETS

Years without watching a game but making tons of bets.
Either you're a hardcore degent or you're lying.
GOOD POINT PETER, YET AFTER SAYING
I haven't actually watched a game in a few years
but, Ive caught about 10 OTs in the last few days
I don't like to start Sh!t with someone, unless they are blatantly hurting me or someone I consider a friend, yet you've piqued my curiosity as to OP's agenda. Now I know people that can't handle the stress of watching something they've wagered on, so they'll go out and do something else during the game, yet in order to bet, they actually know enough about it to make a calculated, rational wager. Why would you bet "TONS" of games on something you know, nor care anything about. Especially if he knows nothing about OT, how it works, what a shoorout is.......Now I'm curious as to what his definition of "TONS" is and is it a number of games/ wagers, or the Troy Ounce of the currency he's lost
I've got a great idea. Carp, I'm having a Poker partry this weekend!! What, you don't know anything about cards, and never played Poker. Not to worry, just bring your "TONS of currency" and we'll teach you.........WAIT, better yet, since you don't like to get involved watching, just drop your "TONS" by and stop back about 3:00am and we'll give you your TONS of winnings

It is awful, it is basically same as SO. Just a bunch of breakaways. Lips hit nail on head if it is great and NHL loves why not use it in playoffs?
because the playoffs you can keep playing unlimited ot's to get to a winner. In the regular season you can't, hence the reason. Its like you need people to take a logic class to get points across to people

Sigh lol only online can this topic somehow turn into me being a liar or people wondering about "agendas." Seriously just LOL
Anyways, I tail weeble and a guy or two on another board and no the last few years I have rarely watched more of a game than just 2 seconds to check the score. It became kind of a head game with me it seemed every time I turned on a game something bad happened. I was bored a few weeks ago and caught an OT and LOVED it so anytime Id see a game was about to OT I'd switch it on and watch that's how Ive caught a bunch of OTs the last few weeks.

I have plenty of F'ing logic. You can have shootouts in the playoffs. But they don't....and there is a very good reason for it. If it's not good enough for the playoffs then it should not be good enough for the regular season
