Maybe that's my personal interpretation of the new OT rules but,I know I have heard that being discussed on sport shows,that the new rules would somehow lower the percentages of ties.There can be no ties in the playoffs so why not make it that way in the regular season?I don't believe there are too many fans of a tie game.
Thats what I've said for years, but you get people saying that they may get HURT playing longer .... give me a break .
