3-On-3 Overtime in NHL Has Evolved Over Past 5 Seasons. January 24, 2020 by The Canadian Press. ST. LOUIS — Victor Hedman fondly recalls the NHL's first 3-on-3 overtime because it was madness
The most memorable and longest was played on Christmas Day in 1971, when the Miami Dolphins outlasted the Kansas City Chiefs 27-24 in double overtime on a 37-yard field goal by Garo Yepremian.
In 2000-01, the NHL changed the overtime to four skaters per side, allowing for more maneuverability and playmaking. But chopping the overtime to 3-on-3 is a circus sideshow.
The American Hockey League will experiment next season with seven-minute overtime in the regular season, with 3-on-3 beginning at the first whistle beyond three minutes, the league announced Thursday.
