As of the 2005-2006 season, NHL games can no longer end in a tie. If the game is tied at the end of regulation, both teams are awarded one point and the teams will play five minutes of 4 on 4 hockey (assuming there are no carry over penalties). If at the end of the five minutes AND the teams are still tied, then the teams have a shootout until one team wins. The winning team earns one additional point.
