How to Change NHL's Points System

Infinite_Jester54 · 10-31-2025, 02:50 PM

Hey folks! Is there an easy way to change the NHL in game to award 3 pts for a regulation win, 2 pts for an overtime win, and 1 point for an overtime loss? I genuinely hate the loser point creating a new point out of nowhere...

In commissioner mode, go to edit in the NHL drop down menu, go to rules and at the far right of that screen. It must be on July 1 as well.

Awesome, thank you! Is it possible to make these kinds of changes to the league structure in Challenge Mode (which I believe blocks commissioner mode?)?

No. You need Commish mode to make changes like that.

I don't believe so, but you might be able to. There are some settings I know can't be changed in Challenge Mode, but not sure which because I don't play that mode.

You can start a game, not in Challenge Mode, make the change, retire and create a new guy in Challenge Mode.
