For the 2014-15 the league modified the three point system for league standings that were adopted for the 2013-14 season. Starting with the 2014-15 season, three points were awarded for a regulation or overtime win; two for a shootout win; one for an shootout loss, none for a regulation or overtime loss.  Under the NCAA guidelines games decided in overtime or shootout are considered ties and are counted as ties in the conference standings.
