Shootouts: Necessary form of resolution for games still tied at overtime (since OT can’t reasonably go on forever in the regular season), or meaningless coin flip that degrades the concept of assigning a true “winner” or “loser” of what’s supposed to be a team sport? Discuss.

The regular-season hockey threads won’t be pinned, so you might want to keep this open in a separate tab if you’d like to keep an eye on it until the next one goes up. (Considering how fast unpinned posts slide down the home page, I’ll probably be slapping up a new one of these every Tuesday and Saturday as long as I remember to do so.) Otherwise, you can always find these under the Sports > Hockey menu at the top of the home page.
Have fun and happy hockey!
