Ah yes the voice of reason, we have an adult in the room people!

Moe's an adult++ now

so then dont limit it just to the d zone have it called all over the ice if the puck leaves without a deflection its a penalty. i would even take the benches and call it for that too you risk a pass off the ice where theres not any glass and it goes into the bench then thats on the player.

Why? There’s already enough incentive to not throw it high on the glass in other parts of the ice because it kills your chance to gain the zone or make an offensive play. No one is intentionally doing this.

You guys have some whacky ideas.

1:33an and I just woke up. i don't even know what the final score was but I know I'm never going to fall back to sleep

I fell asleep on the coach right after the 3rd period ended. Then saw one of the goals and thought that was the winner for Florida, but it turned out to be a replay from one of their goals in the 1st period lol.

I then watched most of OT, but nodded off again in the final minutes, only to wake up during the post game just 5 minutes after the game ended.

I’ve been having a hard time staying awake much later 11:00 most nights for the past few months.

Except we're underrating that these guys would flip pucks into the crowd like nothing if there was no legit recourse besides a faceoff + same guys stay out there. Again, I don't even like the rule because I think it punishes guys for perfect in an imperfect sport with razor thin margins but players would 100% abuse it if there was nothing in the rulebook

Then why don’t guys willy nilly ice the puck? That’s easier than throwing the puck into the stands

You must be getting old. Next thing is you drool on yourself at dinner and then crap yourself at dessert.

What do you mean? They literally do......, that's the first thing a dman is taught as a pee wee player to ice the puck on a long shift over anything else drastic.

Tonight I took a fall while walking, now I really feel old. I even skinned my knee.

I keep trying to tell myself it’s no big deal. I thought I was on level ground and had one foot off the road and in a ditch. So I obviously tripped myself thinking I was on level ground and I was really on air.

I’ve really been beating myself up over it.

And of course I’m wide awake on a night where there is no hockey game.

Personally, I'd like a puck over the glass to be a quick faceoff like icing, and an intentional puck over the glass to be a delay of game penalty.

And before anyone complains that it's too arbitrary for the ref to decide, there's already some calls that rely on the ref to determine intent. Intentional offsides and intent to injure, for example.

So what’s the difference then…why is it so much more of a punishment to do one and not the other? That seems arbitrary, either make both a minor penalty or both the quick faceoff without a line change. Same principle.

 

[thebeernerd]

Just make it a 1 minute penalty. We already have penalties of different times.

Jeff Marek agrees with you, but he can be a bit loony when it comes to rule ideas. Personally, I'm not sure.

It’s already a bit of a judgment call on a decent chunk of puck over the glass calls as it is whether it deflects off a stick or clears the glass without nicking it

This is like the Empire State Building lighting up it's colors for teams from different states lol...

If you just had the male nurse who checks your prostate push you around in your wheelchair none of that would have happened.

No, it isn't. Icing the puck risks it being stopped by the other team. In the corners and along the boards, putting the puck over the glass is easier.

I am convinced if you watch games from 20+ years ago you will see non-goalie players putting the puck out of play deliberately - not often, but it happened.

no one is intentionally throwing pucks out of play in the d zone that is 100% players are though 100% icing the pucks on purpose and delaying the game by doing so but enough with that lets go panthers

 

[jkrdevil]

Puck over glass is a safety issue. They don’t want players intentionally shooting the puck in the crowd because someone could get injured or worse. Making it a penalty vs no line change like an icing accomplishes getting rid of intentional shooting the puck out of play.

Ryan Nutsack-Hopkins acting like a tough guy what is that skinny f*** going to do?
