text: The idea of 3 pts for a win in reg was raised by 1 poster.  Let's discuss.
  
  Take the Atlantic, where if a team got 3 pts for a win in reg, then Mtl, Ott, Tor, Bos would be a few more pts clear of Fla by virtue of the fact they've won more games in reg.  Your Leafs, heavenly days, would have 90 pts to Fla's 84.
  
  Now, I think it's right that a 5-0 win in reg should count for more than a 2-1 in a SO.  The logic is so apparent when presented that any pushback is nonsensical.  The reply from some regulars here that, hey, them's the rules and rules is rules is so chaotically indefensible that to even post it seems a violation of the most basic of common sense, though that's hardly stopped some before...
  
  Further, rules is changed with dizzying regularity by the NHL nowadays, so let's not have any of that, shall we?
  
  Finally, these same posters have chimed in with such missives as a shot on goal is not the same as a shot on net, and that Your Leafs pass too much in the SO.
  
  The defence rests.
