TheRightCall Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 Automatic offsides at ALL LEVELS. ICING not permitted at ALL LEVELS when shorthanded. Faceoff in offending team's defensive zone on penalty. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeyisgreat Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Why make those types of changes? I really don't like those first 2 rule changes. Can someone explain the logic behind those changes? Certainly does not speed up the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRightCall Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 That is their logic. Also, for twelve minute period games, penalties will be 1:00. There is a new scale they designed to determine the penalty time length, and only the longest periods will have 2:00 penalties. And, of course, all language will be gender neutral since we cannot offend anyone in these times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifelongbender Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Eliminating tag-up offsides is a terrible idea. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spear and Magic Helmet Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 The icing thing while penalty killing has been brewing for years. Would not be surprised to see that adopted in the NHL as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not be surprised to see that adopted in the NHL as well. They've been experimenting with it at some juniors tournaments for quite a while, too, from what I understand. That particular rule irritates me MUCH less than the concept of eliminating touch up offsides. It already distorts the flow of the game where it has been eliminated. Such a bad idea.

The rise in shorthanded goals at the higher levels certainly backs that up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as while make a rule that every team in a tourney gets a banner, trophy, and medals. So glad this is our last year of youth hockey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carroll81 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 The change to the Icing rule is useless, since they defeated the change to prohibit the line change on icing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
