Spec The ideal sized ice surface for today’s player is in between Olympic and the current NHL Rinks... simple math with the increased size of all players and the increased speed... should be 200 by 92... not 200 by 85 and not 200 by 100... easy global adjustment!
Spec l'm for a bigger rink..gives skilled players more room. .smaller rink enables lesser skilled players to slow the game down..
Spec eric_hebert15 Are they EVER going to agree on something? 😂
Spec Who in their right mind wants the NHL to increase the size of the ice? It’s pretty obvious watching hockey now that hitting and violence is way down. International hockey is low scoring as more space doesn’t equal more offense

NHL, players' union expected to meet in Las Vegas this week - Sportsnet.caThe NHL and the Players’ Association are expected to meet sometime this week in Las Vegas as representatives from both sides try out some of the latest upcoming toys and gadgets at the Consumer Electronics Show. Kind of confused on your choice of picture, unsure what a snake has to do with NHL 🐍 Id like to see refs being fined/suspended for horrible officiating/losing control of a game, the player safety department/toronto war room to be unbiased towards players/teams, and limiting the amount a team can spend for cap hits on RFA's with their rookie contract expired! How come no one talks about the ridiculous icing calls. Guys skate away from the puck and they still call icing ?
