Or just abandon the point system and go to W/L records instead.

Prob with continuous OT is tv networks. Game going past scheduled time,so they have to delay next show airing. And of course,players getting tired more.

Though i dont get how networks won't like continuous ot. Ratings end up higher due to people watching ot till its done. Overruns are most watched part of almost any broadcast.
