My idea to make the game more, "extreme," would be to introduce TURBO SKATES. Every player has the same amount of turbo they can activate on their skates, so that for a brief period of time they get a burst of speed. The turbo is reset for each period so you would have opportunities three times a game to activate your turbo and speed down the ice like the Roadrunner from the cartoons. How cool would it be to have turbo plays happening at pivotal points in the game? Now, you would have to add extra padding to the boards to reduce the risk of serious injury but it would be such a cool addition to the game overall, and it would require strategic planning. It would also open up possibilities for new types of plays altogether where you could really see some special moves happen or breakouts like we've never seen before. Bring on the turbo skates!
