As you say, it worked in football ('soccer'). People still play for a draw though. But there is no OT - so the chances of seeing it through to a draw are higher, and a draw can be a huge achievement against better teams. People only play for a draw if they are massively outmatched by the other. And it often fails... I like the 3 point idea. As you say, it worked in football (’soccer’).

I just see teams picking up "Shootout specialists" then playing for the shootout and winning there. I guess I don't mind ties, especially after an 8 or 10 minute 4 vs 4 OT. Ties would be pretty rare.

But it would be interesting to see if it would motivate players/coaches to go for the 3pts are sit back like they are now trying to make sure they get at least the 1pt. 10 minute OT would be great as well.

If football can resolve overtime on a coin flip, hockey certainly can on a shootout. But no shootout in the playoffs...EVER.

This was more or less the solution that Soccer used to keep coaches from playing for a tie, and it worked nicely.
