Shootout Or No Shootout? [POLL]

Nine years after the shootout became a regular addition of the NHL landscape, the hockey world has become divided on whether or not the league should continue to employ the tiebreaker.  Die-hards say shootouts are gimmicky, and games shouldn't be decided by a skills competition, while others stump for the drama-factor they provide, and maintain that anything is better than a tie.

Count me among the latter.  I love shootouts, and don't want them to go anywhere.  Read my full thoughts here.
