I hate Hockey, and I hate the ridiculous, lose in OT, get a 1/2 a win rule

I hate Hockey, and I hate the ridiculous, lose in OT, get a 1/2 a win rule IMO this rule alone makes Hockey a joke. If we are tied 2-2, we wink wink, dump the puck and do line changes back and forth and play defense, knowing we both get 3/4 of a win if we can just tie. A tie should count as 1/2 a win. A loss should count as zero. CAN YOU IMAGINE if football had this asinine rule??? Get to OT and get a 1/2 win??? RIDICULOUS.

Some games are worth three points (2 to the winner, 1 to the loser), while others are worth two. This is backward. What soccer gets right is 3 for a win, one for a tie, so the games that are only worth two points are the ones that ended in a tie. That's the right way.

If Italy had hockey with those OT rules, you'd probably see half the games end in a tie.

I hate hockey too. But would like to know if the forum gets any info on the ponies its warming up and would like to cash in on a couple of long shots.

Thankx mose been off line for hours but just saw your post will take note and keep the forum updated for anybody thats interested in the ponies.good luck

An exercise rider who has ridden both, likes Conveyance much more than Lookin At Lucky. However, 3 year olds can develop so quickly once they figure out what everything is about, you never know. I like Conveyance who I believe is running in NM today (at a short price for sure; a race 2 watch, not wgwer)

Conveyance races tomorrow - 12th at Sunland Park. I'm also curious how he'll do? I think this is the first year that the Sunland Derby is a graded race. If I recall correctly, Mine That Bird ran in this race last year - and he didn't run very well either.
