NHL approves two rules changes, targeting gloved pucks and delay of game | Puck Daddy - Yahoo! Sports

- covering puck more penalized
- can't win faceoff with hand anymore
- Maple Leaf sale approved


still no change to the puck over the glass thing

Did they mention anything about all the other rule changes they made during the playoffs? You know, the ones they changed between every game, period, and change of possession?

dont forget the change of rules depending on which teams are playing

- covering puck more penalized = GOOD
- can't win faceoff with hand anymore = GOOD
- Maple Leaf sale approved = MEH


still no change to the puck over the glass thing = TOO BAD

- can't win faceoff with hand anymore = GOOD

that one might put Kyle Wellwood out of work.

You know what rule I want? If the team is on the power play, the goalie can play the puck outside of the trapezoid. PK teams get to throw the puck out of the zone without the fear of icing, atleast give them the fear of a goalie making a great play.

Sure. Then he should be fair game and get clobbered.

I'm fucking fine with that. The goalie should be fair game outside the blue.

As for the clearing the puck over the glass I have no problem with that never did. About the only thing I think they should change with that is if you bat a puck out of the air, but on your stick and you send it out enjoy your rest for two minutes mistake or not.

I think they should raise the cap about a bajillion dollars.

When was the last time that you saw this enforced?

76.4 Procedure – Centers – The puck shall be faced-off by the Referee or the Linesman dropping the puck on the ice between the sticks of the players facing-off. Players facing-off will stand squarely facing their opponent’s end of the rink approximately one stick length apart with the blade of their sticks on the ice.
