The CCHL decided to adapt the American Hockey League's overtime format beginning with the 2014–15 season. Trials were conducted during the pre-season prior to its launch.
The new overtime format is as follows:
Following tied games, teams will remain at the 3rd period ends and 7:00 minutes will be placed on the clock after a 30-second break. Each team will receive 1 point.
The first 3 minutes of over time will be played 4 on 4. At the first whistle after 3 minutes (i.e. if the clock reads 4:00 or less) the teams will play 3 on 3. The same penalty regulations apply. The games are again sudden victory with the first team to score collects an additional point.
In the event the game remains tied after the conclusion of seven minutes of overtime, a 30-second break during which the team coaches will provide a list of 3 shooters will precede a shoot out. Home teams shall determine if they shoot first or second. If the score after 3 rounds of shooters remains tied, there will be a continued sudden death single round shoot out until a winner is declared.
No shooter may shoot twice until all eligible shooters have shot once.
Players in the penalty box at the conclusion of overtime shall not be eligible to participate in the shoot out.
