That just means there's 2 less players to score a goal

According to an nhl.com article. The ahl had a 35% decrease in games being decided in shootout versus OT after they switched to 3 v 3

Arizona will only use OEL when playing 3 on 3. No other players needed, Yotes win.

Actually I think Eklund is on to something with the Oilers and the Mike Green thing. Green is willing to sign with the Oilers, and the Oilers are extremely interested in adding a top pairing D. Thanks to the moronic Jeff Petry contract Green is upwards of $7mil per now. But the Oilers aren't going to find a better defenseman available via free agency.

Give Washington the 2nd round pick from Montreal and get on with it.

Except that Mike Green isn't a top pairing Dman

Don't argue with da Clootch. He can't think clearly because Brad Penny gave him chlamydia.

wonder if we'll see Vinny, amac and l.schenn

NHLPA is a bunch of whiners. NO changing "Regular Season" rules. Change them for both Regular and Playoffs or let em be ! This 2 different sets of rules is laughable. Shootout MUST GO.

wonder if we'll see Vinny, amac and l.schenn

Vinny, probs not
Amac, yes unfortunately
L.schenn, if Grossmann is moved, yes, If Grossmann stays, he gone

Yes but teams only stand a 3.5% chance of winning in OT if OEL is in goal for the opposing team.
