10 Improvements for Hockey

1. Take away offsides
• I think it would be a faster game and at the very least we would not waste time waiting for refs to decide if it was offside after a coaches challenge
• It would be an interesting experiment
2. Take the instigator rule away
• If this rule did not exist then, maybe there would be less dirty hits and injuries
• The other reason is to decrease stick infractions
• If there is the option to fight people would likely take that option instead
3. Increase penalty severity for stick infractions
• A hockey stick is a lethal weapon, and no player should be allowed to use it as a weapon
4. Put data collectors on player
• Something like accelerometers, pulse readers and others
• The accelerometer would be great for fans to see exactly how fast players are moving 
• A pulse reader would be useful for medical purposes and entertainment purposes
5. Make the All-Star Game mean something
• It is a meaningless game right now, and nobody takes it seriously
• If they made some sort of award or something, maybe players would take it seriously
• I do understand that it is meant to be fun, but I do like to see a little bit of competitive spirit 
6. Take the goaltending triangle away
• This rule is in the NHL and other leagues, but not all leagues
• It is a stupid rule that prevents goalies from playing the puck when it is outside their triangle 
• I would like to see goalies play the puck more, and taking this rule out would help
7. Make concussion protocol universal
• I just learned that in international play that there is no concussion protocol 
• All players should have to be looked at if there is any chance they have a concussion
• Concussions have caused too much hurt in the hockey world for it to be ignored
8. Take away the kicking in rule
• This rule says you can not kick the puck in for a goal
• I think that you should be able to kick the puck in any way you want
9. Take away handpass rule
• This rule says that you can not pass the puck with your hand
• I do not see what is the benefit of this rule
10. Put a sensor on the puck to know its exact location
• It would be a great thing to have if there is a debate as to whether or not the puck crossed the line
