CCHA members have voted to continue using both the shootout to complete tie games for league standings purposes and the three-point-per-game system that goes with it.<\/p>\n
The CCHA Council made those decisions this week at a meeting in Dearborn, Mich.<\/p>\n
The league became the first in men’s college hockey to adopt the shootout when it was allowed under NCAA rules in 2008.<\/p>\n
A year later, it tweaked its standings to award a consistent three points per game — three for a regulation or overtime win, two for a shootout win, one for a shootout loss and none for a regulation or overtime loss.<\/p>\n
In the first year of the shootout, games that ended in regulation or overtime were worth a total of two points; games that ended in a shootout saw a total of three points awarded.<\/p>\n
Last season, 25 CCHA games went to a shootout. Alaska played in a league-high eight.<\/p>\n
Also at its meeting, the CCHA adopted standardized media timeouts for all league games and non-conference games hosted by CCHA teams. Timeouts will be taken at the first whistle with under 14 minutes, 10 minutes and six minutes remaining in each period.<\/p>\n
Media timeouts can’t be taken after an icing call, a call for shooting the puck out of play, a goal or during a power-play situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
