Wow. Way to come up with overtime ideas that make the NHL look patient. Thank God someone's out there to save us from the tyranny of...ties. And if there's one organization on which I want NCAA hockey to model itself, it's NCAA football. "Successfully," my ass.
The group developed the three most feasible options to eliminate ties:
1) Five minutes of 4-on-4 overtime, then decide the game by using a shootout. This option had the most support among committee members.
2) Five minutes of 4-on-4 overtime, then 3-on-3 for five minutes of overtime, then a shootout.
3) Each team would receive a 5-on-4 power play opportunity for two minutes. If Team A scores and then holds Team B from scoring, Team A wins. If Team B scores a shorthanded goal during Team A's opportunity, the game is over and Team B wins. If a penalty is called on the shorthanded team during the overtime opportunity, the power play opportunity is extended for the additional time. The procedure is used until one team scores. This model is more in line philosophically with the tiebreaking procedures used successfully in NCAA football.

Option 3 just sounds ridiculous. I don't see any need to make ANY changes. But if they do I would be shocked if they didn't pick the NHL-style approach.

What is so horrible about ties? If two teams are evenly matched and play a game that reflects that, why do people have a problem with that?
If the NC$$ decides to adopt an OT with a winner system similar to the NHL, will a point be awarded for an "OT-loss"?

The committee also approved several items for consideration

2) Icing no longer allowed when a team is shorthanded, but players are allowed to change.
Why?

It seems like committees like this feel the need to enact changes in order to justify their existence. Rule changes for their own sake are not a good thing.

To increase scoring. Why they think increasing scoring improves the game beats me. One of the best games I've ever seen was the CU-Wisconsin overtime thriller that was a 1-0 game.

Yeah that was ok. But imagine if it'd gone to two OTs with 8-8 score and then had a shootout at the end. A SHOOTOUT!!!111!!one! That would have been totally awesome.

I hate shoot-outs to decide a champion or to determine who advances to the next round. I can live with them in holiday tournaments, but not for a national title.
That 1-0 Cornell-Wisconsin game was something special. I might consider "trading it in" for your scenario if we would be guaranteed to win it all
. And considering that it is only 7/3 and the red-white game is ~ 100 days away, I'm sure we can banter this about for awhile (especially since the dating advice thread has been removed from the JSID forum
).
