Win or lose I hate shootouts. Would rather bring back ties.

 

no way, shootouts are awesome for the regular season. they just need to make it 5 shooters each.

Coach Joel Quenneville said someone should "call the cops" because #Blackhawks stole two points vs. Stars.

The Sun-Times said he last used that line after Emery's famous game against Calgary a few years ago.

They are a gimmick to make sure there is a "winner" and a "loser". Its about as random as having Toews and the Jamie Benn meeting at center ice and playing "rock scissors paper" for the extra point.

 

Duncan Keith played 29 minutes? :banghead:

 

Carbomb is worthless.

 

Crawford won the game for the Hawks.

We played with pretty much 4 defensemen. Rundblad played 6 minutes. TVR played just short of 12 min.

My favorite part about the shootouts is how worked up the anti-shootout crowd gets about them.

 

 

It would be like playing the 10th inning in baseball than going to a HR derby to decide the winner. Just leave it a tie, after OT and move on.

I don't think anyone is worked up about them. I just don't like them and would prefer they just end in ties rather than awarding points based on a skills competition.
