Best Answer

In the NHL they play 5 minutes of sudden death overtime. First team to score wins. If neither team scores they go to a shootout. Each team is restricted to four skaters and one goal.

In a shootout, each team is given three attempts to to score. if the score remains tied, the shootout continues.

In playoff they just play 20. min sudden death overtime periods. If neither team scores they play another period till a team scores.
