Option 2 Written Text: Slava-Ukraini Heroyam-Slava would want to change the offside rule. The current offside rule states that an attacking player cannot precede the puck into the attacking zone past the blue line. While this rule serves to prevent cherry picking and maintain the integrity of the game, it often leads to contentious calls, and lengthy video reviews, and can disrupt the flow of play especially since the coach's challenge came into play for challenging offside calls after a goal. The aspect of the offside rule I'd address specifically is the requirement for a player to completely clear the offensive zone before re-entering to negate an offside call. Currently, if an attacking player is deemed offside, they must exit the offensive zone completely, often resulting in a stoppage of play and a faceoff in the neutral zone. This process can be time-consuming and interruptive, especially in cases where the offside infraction is marginal or inconsequential to the flow of play. I am not sure how this rule will be able to change without making it unfair offensive advantage but we need to stop the miniscule offsides from calling back goals and stopping play.
