I normally hate Whyne-shyinski, but he's correct in the thinking around a shoot out.
"the shootout itself remains an absolutely inequitable, ridiculous way to determine the winner of a regular-season game, especially one with serious playoff implications. Forget the 65 minutes of a different sport you just watched. No opposing skater on the ice to defend him, and the only pass Kuznetsov completed was to himself. A team effort boiled down to gimmickry."
Keep the ties and say "No" to free points based on a single players ability to deke a goalie. This is a team sport, ride or die with a team system.
