In reply to: Do you have an opinion on using 3-on-3 in OT posted by ShermanOaksND

I guess in order to advance to the Cup you should "earn" the right - if that means 3 OT's in a game so be it. But I think it works great in an 82-game regular season, especially when each team will have a fair number of "back to backs". That rationale would favor doing something like it in the FF. Maybe 5 minutes of 5 on 5, then go to 3 on 3 till somebody scores.
