Forgot to mention the dumbest rule in hockey the trapezoid. That thing serves no purpose at all. Almost never get a chance to see a goalie score im shocked smith did last week. Not allowing goalies to get the puck in the corner also has increased Dmen getting smashed on the forecheck. They talk about safety but then have this thing in which increases dangerous hits.

I agree, you can blame this silly rule on former Flyers goalie Ron Hextall, he was the first to master the skill - in fact I think he had a better shot than I did.
You are also right, it would cut down the number of hits on the Dmen

Thanks to everyone for not reading my hockey blogs but commenting as well - I'll do my best to be engoaged in the various conversations that come up.

I thought I would make another general comment on the Red Line issue. Currently, Bobby Orr is travelling the country promoting his new book, one of the biggest statements that he makes is "Put the red line in!"

Enough said. The best player of all time is making the case for it as well.

and the over the glass delay of game calls, and the new hybrid icing is misguided. just put automatic icing in and call it a day.

I miss watching Marty send saucer passes to the neutral zone. He is still probably a better passer than all our Dmen.
