Wow. Those Blues jerseys are absolutely putrid. I guess they would have to be that big of a no-brainer for Keenan to make the right decision. Posted via RS Mobile |

No iceing the puck while shorthanded and no line changes for the team who commited a offside is a joke. Those will never pass.

I barely notice the refs on the ice now, but another one might crowd the rink.

Also, I agree that the "no icing while shorthanded" rule is ridiculous....

I don't know about the 2 on 2 OT session, lol. Stick with 4 on 4, 3 on 3 maybe.

As for the rules they are going to test out...I'm a bit of a traditionalist and don't want to see too many changes. No touch icing though I like.
With some of the new changes they are testing, it seems the focus is to quicken the game up so the game watches well on tv, if that makes sense.

No touch icing should reduce concussions. I'm all for that.

if there is such a thing as a shootout, why even bother changing 4 on 4 format

I could see 3 on 3, but 2 on 2 is just stupid.

2 on 2 is practically a shoot out because defense would be practically be nil; meaning that if the Sedins miss their shot, will result in an offensive break for the other team, and the chances will just trade.

Best bet is to throw out fast, on-the-rush-type players. ie. Kesler, Raymond...
