    10 Things to Improve Hockey

    A good article that has some good points to improve the game of hockey.

    I have to say that I agree to everyone except number 4.

    What do you think?

    i actually like the 2 minute powerplay idea. Its kinda cool. i wouldn't expand the ice surface. Make the goalie equipment smaller. Lots more goals will be scored.

      Hell no, 2 minute power play is so gay.

      I definitly agree with Darryl on this one.


      Brett Hull as Commish, that would be sweet I think. Since he KNOWS what can be done to make the game better for everyone seeing that he has experienced it first-hand.

          There's nothing better than a breakaway, so why not give every game a chance to see 10 in a row!!! The best of the best!! Some people say it puts all the weight of the team on your 5 best skaters and your goalie... but what's wrong with that? If the teams as entire teams can't decide a victor, see who's got the best of the best!!!

            I agree fennernen but I think that the losing team should still keep a point.

                True! But we must remember, with great power comes great responsibility, so Bettman has his hands full.

                  Don't like;

                  Getting rid of "obstruction" - hockey is a two-way game, offense & defense. Other than the Oilers hiccup in the 80's, defense wins championships, always has.

                  2 minute power plays - 1 goal is enough punishment

                  Shootout - come on...is it hockey or soccer ?

                  1 Referee - 2 ref system has cut down on the cheap shots behind the play

                  Brett Hull - That's like putting Don Cherry in the post. Just stupid.

                  Like;

                  Enlarging the ice surface. - you want a skating game that stresses skill and puck movement ? This will give it to you


                  Not mentioned;

                  If you get rid of the centre line, then hockey becomes ringette.

                  You'd have one defenseman in the offensive zone and one hanging back as a free safety to stay in front of the floaters.

                    I love the shootout Idea but the one point should be kept if you lose because of a shootout.
