    Why can’t you all just enjoy 3on3? šŸ™

    I like the 3 on 3 ā€¦just get rid of the shoot out

    I’m very in-favor of the over and back rule. Way too much time eaten up circling back and re-entering the zone.

    I don’t like the idea of making it even less like regular hockey just to make it even easier to score. At a certain point we might as well skip it and get right to the shootout.

    Just go back to 4 on 4, were goals really so rare?

    I prefer 4-on-4 but they have to do something to try and improve 3-on-3. I know people are gonna think Iā€™m just butthurt because we lost the game against Seattle, but that OT against them was embarrassing for everyone involved.

    Take away the OT point and make it winner take all. Otherwise the risk averse coaches of the league will always look to play it safe no matter how the rules are structured

    3 on 3 for 8 minutes and no crossing back over the red line.

    Took me 6 seconds

  8. There will just be more adaptation no matter what rules are changed.

    Go back to 5 v 5, sudden death, no SO, 10 minute period. If no one has won, no points are awarded to either team for the tie.

    I donā€™t think we need to fix the ā€œover and backā€ rule just say no offsides. Cherry picking allowed.

    Apparently my wife and I are the only ones that like the shootout. Definitely agree with modifying the overtime parameters, though.

    3 on 3 is already barely hockey putting in over and back or shot clock just makes it less and less like hockey. I’d rather 4 on 4 and a tie than more made up nonsense.

    Iā€™m getting real tired of the 3v3. 4v4 didnā€™t bother me nearly as much. But 3v3 just feels like a pick-up game and not a proper way to finish a hockey game that was played 5v5 for 90% of the rest of the game
