Tiebreaker

In the event of a tie between Pittsburgh and New Jersey I propose two variations of the same solution.

• Street hockey shootout -- A player from each team shall face the other player in a head-to-head shootout in street or floor hockey. Obviously, equipment is an issue. Each player would have three chances to score on the other player. Standard NHL shootout rules would apply.
  
  
• Broomball shootout -- The same as above, except with broomball. How you ask? The Capitals Kettler Iceplex rents out rinks for $300 an hour. We could make this the marquee attraction to proceed an hour of broomball. 15-20 other people would be recruited to join in and minimize the cost. This is a good idea whether we have a La Coupe Hauxer tie or not.

Either solution would be videotaped for posterity.
