Re: Regarding players\' point scoring in Hockey
Since they already show the goals on the highlight reels and get a little selfish wanting the glory of the goals in today's game even with assists counting the same in terms of total points then I don't think changing the scoring system is going to be that much more incentive to pass even less.
Players like scoring goals already.
You could change the scoring the other way and count assists as 3 points and goals as 1 point and say that it's an emphasis on setting up your teammates or something....and the players still wouldn't care. They would still want to be the guy to light the red lamp.
