The first team to score wins the match. If neither team scores, then the match is a draw or can be decided by a penalty shoot-out: each coach rolls a D6, high score wins, re-roll ties! Any unused re-rolls add +1 to the D6 score.
I'd like to answer that, but as we only have OT in the playoffs over here, there's not enough data to make statistics.
I'll tell you one thing though. If i won the toss, i really don't know which way i'd go. It would probably depend on the races and the skills present.
I can see using the offical coin toss to decide a regular season tie but it's just wrong to do in the playoffs. It would be like deciding the World Cup on a shoot out (opps they do that don't they).

I still disagree with that. In playoffs, you don't want a hard fought game to be decided by a coin toss! Winning that way would suck more than losing in 3rd OT!
In playoffs, the stakes are too high not to fight 'til the bitter end!
Zombie - That's an interesting twist! Just out of curiosity, what percentages of coaches have won the coin toss and chosen to kick?
As the kicker I know that I will go first.
