I don't get how faceoffs are bad.
Its like the guys on overdrive said. Changing the faceoff rules is the dumbest thing the NHL can do.
Fans are not clamoring for changes to faceoffs. They are not impacting the entertainment value of the sport. We are providing nothing to fans by tweaking this rule in any way. Its fine as it is.
Slashing? Yup, gotta be curtailed as players are getting hurt, and injured stars is not good for the game. But faceoffs? What the hell? Why?
eh, if you have to break the rules to win faceoffs, and teams cqn just kill play thanks to havingnthr best cheaters, its a problem.
more interesting for me is whether the new enforcement makes certain players completely irrelevant.....and other players suddenly much better at faceoffs.
is it a problem that fans are complaining about. That is making the game less entertaining to fans.
Does fixing this problem sell one more ticket, get one more viewer on tv?
If not, its pointless to change.
