- If a game is tied in a playoff game, it will have a sudden-death three-minute overtime followed by a shootout with three players shooting from both teams. If the game is still tied after overtime and the initial shootout, it will go to a sudden-death shootout with one player from each team shooting. No player can shoot twice until all players on the team have shot.
