I just read your answer to a previous question on pulling the goalie in overtime. Is there a specific rule to prevent a team from pulling the goalie in OT? If they pull the goalie and score with the extra man I assume it would be good.
I seem to remember a game between Montreal and i think washington a few yers ago at the end of the season where montreal needed 2 points to make the playoffs where the pulled their goalie in OT. This was before the shootout so the game could still have been tied. They lost anyway.
Now with the shootout it is unlikely to happen but do the new rules prevent it?

They are permitted to pull the goaltender during the overtime. However, if a goal is scored against a team while their goaltender is pulled during overtime, they lose the point they would have gained for getting to overtime. If a team scores a goal while their own goaltender is pulled, nothing changes.

Lubers is correct
If Team A pulls their goalie during the overtime, and subsequently gives up an empty net goal or loses in the shootout, they lose their 1 point.
If Team A pulls their goalie during the overtime, and subsequently wins in overtime or in the shootout, they receive the full two points.
Back before the 'extra point for losing' it was common for teams to pull their goalie for an extra attacker when the opposing team got that rare penalty in overtime (the one that is so much more prevalent these days). I cannot recall a team pulling their goalie in overtime since then.
Good job Lubers

prostogau is sweet, the place has the hitting long previous? i admire the quickly paced game, i even like the shootout (that would desire to be 5 rounds), yet the place's the hitting. each and every of the outcomes kill the bypass of the sport. all and sundry says its speedier now, thats because of fact with each and every of the outcomes there is far less gamers on the ice. in the event that they want speedier they'd have made the rinks larger. one greater concern, they are saying followers want much less violence in the sport, yet once you're at a game, if there's a great hit or combat it gets people out of their seats purely like aims and saves. Its a ingredient of the sport, deliver it back.

Ya if they can hang in there for the extra 5 minutes, then the shootout happens.
