Night after night these guys are rolling out new changes... I only wish that fresh air would blow through nonagenarian owner of the Bills...

"there are not many wrinkles on a strip "

I didn't get it.

 

Anyone else worried the goalie or the Dman is going to lose the puck on that dark 7 behind the net?

Most exciting play in hockey? NHL needs to standardize that call and make it a much more frequent part of the game.

 

meh. I think they should give teams an option to have a powerplay. Down by a man for 2-minutes can sometimes influence a game's momentum more than a 10 second hit/miss penalty shot. 23/65 this year translates to 35% which greatly exceeds a PPs chances, but the penalty shot rarely seems to work when I watch them. In fact, I can't remember the last time I saw one work.

As irrational as this sounds, I keep expecting them to trip over it..

Interesting idea, but I'm a fan of the penalty shot. What if you could choose your shooter anytime a shot is called?

Surprised they didn't have Dominic on as a 1st period guest.

 

Like all the Sabres Dance they are playing...

 

New Atlanta goalie....

Yikes...

 

Think they're going to need 5 goals to win this tonight..

 

Another acute angle shot

While interesting, choosing the shooter isn't feasible IMO. You implement a system like that and you're begging to have teams implement role players whose job is to draw the shot, only to sub in their best to bury them. The system works well the way it is.

I know what you're saying but it's not really as simple as putting someone in and "drawing the shot." The first part of the equation is getting on the breakaway which is rare and hard enough itself.

 

But I agree, it's best kept the way it is. I was just tossing the idea up based on OP's thoughts.

Man Nieds gets the goal.. That puts him at 3 and likely now to exceed the 3.5 goals in the contest...
