The fact that there are different rules during the playoffs than the regular season, makes the whole thing suspect. I believe the playoffs should be played under the same rules as the regular season, whatever they may be. The game changes over time. Although in an ideal world they certainly should play full periods. So sad the boys would be so tired… lolI don't think you're making much sense here. I mean even if OT was a full period, I suppose you could complain about it being gimmicky because it's not a full 60 minutes. See the bolded in the post below, that poster makes a 100% valid point.
Exactly.
