I don’t mind the shoot out after overtime, however just because someone gets a lucky shot does not mean that the game should be over 28 seconds into the period.

The overtime period should be played out. Its 5 minutes for goodness sakes.

This whole idea of sudden death should not happen as it is not fair to the teams.

I have said this since I started watching hockey.

It should be as follows:

Regulation Time
1 Over Time Period, played to completion
Shoot Out, minimum best of 3.

you say that until the rangers win in overtime

In a game like hockey where 60 min of scoreless hockey happens on a fairly consistent basis, a golden goal type of overtime is necessary.

I’d like that better.
it gives the opportunity for a rebound.
sudden death should be the playoffs

Last time I checked other sports, an over time is not sudden death it is a set period and if at the end one team is above they win, if not they continue per their rules.

Basketball / Baseball etc… continues extra “frames/periods/innings….”
