Food for thought: have you ever watched sudden-death playoff overtime and said to yourself "man, this is so boring, so constricted, if only there were fewer skaters on the ice!"? No, probably not, because the approach is completely different. It's playing to win versus playing not to lose.

Self-quoting for emphasis.


Actually yes, I have watched plenty of playoff OT and been bored out of my mind. I've seen whole periods go without a scoring chance, stayed up till 3 am waiting for something to happen. In the end, you say you watched the entire OT so you get your badge of honor, but I've rarely come out of a long playoff OT out of breath from all the excitement.
