Why is that? I read an overview of the rule changes when they were announced but don't follow hockey much so have forgotten most of it.
>I also like the fact that a team that scores first no longer has a "90%" chance or greater to win. No more scoring first then bogging down the game with clutch-grab-obstruct tactics until the final horn sounds. A team can get down 2, 3 or more goals and still have a good chance to come back to win. Games are no longer "over" once one of the teams is up by 2 or more goals.
