Hockey Prompt: Yes, "trick" plays are vital to hockey. The game is stale. Boring. I barely watch the NHL anymore because there is nothing there to draw me in. You see people try something different in the sport or slightly step outside the super rigid box that the Neanderthals of the Old Boys Club have decreed as sacred and people get lit up by commentators. It is time for these old clowns to go and a new generation of experimentation to begin. Lacross goals, YES! A goal that everyone looks at each other and asks, wait, can he/she/they do that? No? Yes? Someone get a rule book!

I am a big F1 fan and that sport is all about finding loopholes and innovating. Maybe part of the problem with hockey is the rulebook is ignored randomly on the ice in the name of "game management" and presented to the fans as a good thing. It is tough to find loopholes when the rules are inconsistent at best and a call will be made another way later in the same game, let alone across different games.

Anyways, more fun in hockey please.
