Watching a game the other day got me thinking. Why do we have 2 faceoff circles in the defensive/offensive zones? What is the point?
Would it not be a simple but effective way too increase scoring by making one faceoff circle directly centered to the goalie? That way offensive players are better lined up for a direct shot. It would not make a huge impact to the game and offend traditionalists to much, but it would possibly increase scoring a tad.
If we did that, I would move back the blue line 3-4 inches as well.
Thoughts?
