Also to add how silly the standings look now with (for example) a 2-12 record but you could still be in 2nd place cuz you have 11 overtimes so you have 15 points with a 2-12 record! how messed up is that?
Also, for goaltenders who worked their ass off to put up a shutout for the whole game + overtime only to have all their confidence shot down when they are made to look like fools being scored on 2 or 3 times in the shootout.
So the goalie goes home earning a shutout but feels like a dumbass for being undressed for 3 goals still and LOSING. How do you get a SHUTOUT and Lose the game??
That's like a pitcher getting a no-hitter or perfect game and still losing the game on a consistent basis.
So if the pitcher had 10 no hitters but his record was 0-10, he would probaly not get the cy young award.
BESIDES 4 on 4 hockey is way more fun than watching kubina or blake taking penatly shots.
