Blue Heaven Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Slow at work so I decided to see what the standings would be if they were going by 3-2-1-0 format. ( ) = current points Boston 87 (63) Washington 80 (65) Tampa Bay 76 (56) Pittsburgh 72 (57) Toronto 71 (54) NYI 68 (57) Carolina 66 (52) Columbus 65 (50) ----------------------- NYR 64 (46) Florida 63 (51) Philadelphia 60 (52) Buffalo 57 (45) Montreal 52 (43) Rangers would be on the cusp of a playoff spot, only 4 points behind the Islanders.

BrooksBurner Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Philly and Florida capitalizing on SO wins. Philly has 4. Florida has 3. Rangers have 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 What is it with no loser points? 3-2-1-0 makes me vomit. I might actually stop watching if they switched to it. That’s how much I hate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 When I get a slow day, I'm going to figure out what everyone's record is in regulation. It is a far better barometer of the relative strength of teams going into the playoffs, as 3 on 3 and shootout points do not reflect on anything that will do you much good in the playoffs. However you slice it, the Islanders superior performance in 3 on 3 OT and shootout is inflating their numbers, and I think prudent observers all realize that. They are an absurd 17-12-13 in 42 games in regulation. Doesn't look like a fearsome playoff opponent to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Philly and Florida capitalizing on SO wins. Philly has 4. Florida has 3. Rangers have 0. 5 SO wins for Philly now. Pathetically overrated team. Gotta think it'll catch up to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 In the entire league, one team, St. Louis, has won more than half of its games in regulation. Not coincidentally, reigning playoff winners, where there are no loser points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsm7302 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 What is it with no loser points? 3-2-1-0 makes me vomit. I might actually stop watching if they switched to it. That’s how much I hate it Why do you hate it that much? You dont think it drives teams to win in regulation instead of playing for OT or a shootout? I never really thought about it before but now that I am...seems to kind of make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I'd rather scrap the shootout, but if it must stay I would much rather see something like: 2 points for ROW 1 pt for SOW 0 for any loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
