Hopefully the NHL likes what the PWHL are doing and move to the 3 for a win, 2 for an OT or shootout win, 1 for OT/SO loss, or 0 for regular loss point system
I’m not much of a hockey spectator, I like a shootout because of the variety/novelty, but I also understand its not the best way to identify the “better” team (whatever that means).
This points system makes sense to me, it incentivizes playing right until the buzzer.
