Three point system
Yet another call for it. A very much mail-it-in article. I wouldn’t link to it except he says:
We could make it more complicated in a five-point system. Five points for regulation win, four for overtime victory, three in a shootout, two for losing the shootout and one for overtime defeat. Admittedly, that’s way too complicated to sort out, although it puts an onus on winning in regulation, then overtime and gives out the same points per outing.
Makes perfect sense of course. I think players would have a hard time adding by 5 though. What about just doubling all the numbers, so it’s 10, 8, 6 for wins and 4,2,0 for losses? This way, if you win, it’s easy enough to see what adding 10 does. Regardless, as Hawerchuk has aptly shown (and it is HIS articles that should be mainstremed not these mail-it-in articles), you need to have the same number of available points in each game.
