Anyone else kinda annoyed the broadcast continuously misses game action when showing replays? They do it every game now

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a delay of game penalty like that before

Listening to the Stars broadcast, I guess it was a point of emphasis this year, keep teams from holding up the drop of the puck.

And yes, I'm listening to the Stars because RJ is really really hard to listen to.

It is a point of emphasis

They want more scoring

Same reason that if a puck goes out of play in the D zone no matter how it went out it stays down low

Same reason after an icing the team who didn't ice the puck gets to pick the side the puck gets dropped from

Scoring does seem up this season. But if you look at goalies save percentages it might just be an anomaly.

How about calling obstruction any team a defenseman blocks a forward from getting the puck for his defense partner so he can get the puck? That would increase scoring as that garbage happens all the time.

I agree

I have said that about 5 times out loud today there's constant interference going on that is never called

It's pathetic what's allowed now compared to right after the lockout.
