Best Answer

Yes.

In regular season games, teams will play up to 15 minutes of overtime in order to settle a tie with the first team to score being declared the winner. If neither team scores in the 15 minute overtime period, the game is declared a tie. There is nothing used to break ties like the shootout you might see in Ice Hockey or penalty kicks in association football.

In a playoff game, teams will play as many minutes of overtime as it takes until one team scores and is declared the winner.
