An SO is a Shootout. Games go to shootouts if after three full periods and an overtime is played and the game is still a tie
Three 20-minute periods are in a regulation Hockey game, and a possible 5-minute to 20-minute overtime.
Technically, there isn't one. Hockey games are played in three 20-minute periods.
The first of 3 even amounts of time in a hockey game. Hockey has 3 periods per game. It is usually called the 1st period, not period one. Technically an overtime counts is a period, which means games can have an unlimited number of periods. I think the record for an NHL game is 6 overtimes, or 9 periods.

Hockey does not have quarters in its gameplay structure. Instead, hockey games are divided into three periods.
The teams that hold the record for the most overtime periods in a single Stanley Cup Playoff series are the Detroit Red Wings and the Montreal Canadiens, who played a total of 6 overtime periods during the 1996 playoffs. Additionally, the longest game in Stanley Cup history occurred in 1936, where the Detroit Red Wings faced the Montreal Maroons and went into 6 OTs. Overtime games are notable for their intensity and unpredictability, often showcasing the skill and endurance of the players involved.
Hockey was first played at the 1998 Commonwealth Games.
Yes, the NFL has a rule for overtime where if the game is tied after the first overtime period, a second overtime period is played, which is known as double overtime.
Sixty minutes. A hockey game consists of three twenty-minute periods. If the score is tied at the end of the third period, the teams play a five-minute sudden-death overtime period. If neither teams score in the overtime, the game ends as a tie. In the playoffs, games cannot end in a tie. So instead of a five-minute overtime, a playoff game has an extra 20-minute sudden-death overtime period. If neither team scores, then there is another 20-minute overtime, and so on, until someone scores. There was a Detroit-Montreal game in 1956 that went to the sixth overtime, finally ending at 176 minutes 30 seconds--almost as long as three ordinary games! Detroit scored in the sixth overtime to win the game 1-0.
It means Games Played In.
SOW, or Shootout Wins, is a statistic in hockey that refers to the number of games a team has won in a shootout after regulation and overtime have ended in a tie. In leagues like the NHL, if a game is tied after three periods and a five-minute overtime, teams go to a shootout where players take penalty shots to determine the winner. A SOW contributes to a team's overall points in the standings, with each shootout win typically earning the team two points.
