BOSTON One rule change NHL fans will immediately recognize this season is the new overtime format.Instead of five minutes of 4-on-4 sudden death overtime with a shootout if no one scores, games tied after regulation will immediately go to 3-on-3 action for five minutes before going to a shootout if needed.One mistake, even a small one, likely will lead in an odd-man rush that results in the game-winning goal. The best strategy might be to play a more conservative approach and capitalize when the opponent makes a mistake in the attacking zone.

Bruins center Patrice Bergeron, the best two-way forward in the league and someone who head coach Claude Julien should use quite often in 3-on-3 scenarios, outlined his thoughts on how to play this format during Thursday night¡¯s ¡°State of the Bruins¡± event at TD Garden.¡°First of all, I¡¯m sure it¡¯s something we¡¯re going to work on this year,¡± Bergeron said. ¡°There¡¯s going to be a lot of space, and something that¡¯s new to us. With that being said, you definitely have to use common sense and make sure your coverage, who¡¯s in coverage and whatnot. ¡ Hopefully we can catch teams being overly aggressive offensively, cause some turnovers and go on the attack.¡°But I think we have to be smart with that, hopefully we as a unit when we¡¯re on the ice, we can work together and find the holes and cover each other well. But I¡¯m sure it¡¯s going to be exciting to watch for the fans and see a lot of goals from that.¡±

One of the main reasons why there was a strong push to change overtime is trying to find effective ways to lessen the amount of games ending in shootouts. The shootout is fun for the fans, but a lot of players and coaches don¡¯t like important points in the standings being decided by what essentially is a 1-on-1 skills competition.The Bruins have plenty of options for 3-on-3 scenarios. Bergeron and linemate Brad Marchand probably will see the ice a lot in this kind of situation. Highly skilled, speedy forwards like Ryan Spooner and David Pastrnak are a perfect fit in this setting. Mobile, puck-moving defensemen such as Torey Krug also will draw into the mix.It¡¯s not a perfect format, but anything that reduces the shootout¡¯s impact is a positive, especially for the bruins, who struggled mightily in shootouts last season.
