Did you hear about the retired proctologist? He spent 40 years saying "what's a place like this doing in a girl like you?" |

Not sure if this was a rule change made in the summer, but...
In last night's VAN/CGY game, there was a too many men penalty given to VAN, but it was overturned by the refs on the ice. I have never seen a penalty call overturned like that before.
Did ref's get more ability to decide on penalty calls after the fact? |

Ok - the team is being penalised....their player did something bad enough t o warrant being a man down.
Why is this penalty mitigated (lessened) by the penalised team being able to do something previously against the rules?!?
I believe the answer is the 1970s Canadiens power play, if I remember correct from the explanation.
Wasn't something I had thought of earlier but...totally agree with the premise. And I agree, would definitely be a bit of a game-changer. More goals, certainly.
Screw the Habs. Boston Sucks. Bah Humbug, DeadWings . . . and yes, oh yes, Go LEAFS Go!!! Yeah, it's offseason baby! |

Glad the spinorama is out - it wasn't being properly judged in most cases as a puck stopping or going backwards, which is not allowed.
Too bad they didn't get rid of the whole shootout in the first place, but that's a whole other bag of pucks.
I am REALLY intrigued - this isn't a rule change, but it has potential to be one - about the testing of not allowing icing during a penalty kill. It TOTALLY has merit, and I agree with the premise . . . and apparently, this "potential new rule" is being tested out in some league (can't remember where). Would love to see it.

"Teams don't need to submit their list of three players to the officials before shootouts"
That's kind of interesting. I think it's kinda stupid they are killing the spin-o-rama :/ |
