Keith Jones mentioned changing the rule so the face off comes to center and I think every one should agree 100%

How this wasn't a rule with already is beyond me.

Now if you changed the score and the winning team wants to hide it in their zone, then yes the faceoff should remain in their own zone.

But in a 0-0 game, there is no significant advantage there.

I'm not advocating what TB is doing, but I disagree with KJ on that. I can't see how the team without the puck should have a greater responsibility to keep play moving than the team that actually has control of the puck

if they win hockey games, the fans will be pleased no matter what system they play (see the 90's devils)

I know all about the Devils. I'm pretty sure everyone bitched about their "system" also. I wouldn't care if they went 82-0, I'd watch the games on TV before I paid to watch that bullshit. fuck, 12 of us could put on skates and do that (although the Flyers fans would still manage to end up in the penalty box )

The don't have a greater responsibility, they have an equal responsibility since the draw comes out to center ice. Doesn't get any more even than that.

as I remember it, we fans of other teams bitched about the devils' system. the fans seemed completely fine witht hem winning cups like that.

and while I agree it's very boring hockey, if TB wins (and wins often) with this sytem, fans will show up

The problem with having the faceoff in the zone is that you are giving the trappers a chance at the puck in the offensive zone when they have done nothing to earn it. By putting the puck at center, you end up with as equitable a situation as possible.

If my team plays boring hockey but wins the Cup, I could care less. More fun playing the current brand though, that's for sure.

Guy's we are all entitled to our opinion OK? No need for name calling and shit games. It's a god damn message board and if we can't live with what other people think we shouldn't be here.

I respect everyone's opinion and Ross has been a good poster and he like the rest of us have our own opinions.

Even me. :rofl:

Hey, who asked you asshole?

Sabres fans :L


:behindsofa:

Pretty sure this is why it all started but hey that's just me..


Just a joke buddy (read the progression). Flyers GNT's are always great for good trash talking and bad humor. Sadly, a Sabres fan was an innocent bystander.
