Written Option 1:
New penalty: Stockfish Violation. Stockfish is a powerful chess computer and widely considered to be one of the best in the world, it's also known for being open source. This opens up a lot of doors for the NHL, who could create their own brand of stockfish which can be trained using simulated games and, just like its chess counterpart, give realtime analysis and feedback based on a player's actions on the ice. If a player does something that stockfish doesn't like, in chess terminology a blunder, their team will be assessed a special new penalty, a "Stocksfish Violation" which is nominally a 5 minute major penalty, except that it comes with a condition for an early release. The offending player must play a bullet chess match against a 400 elo rated bot, a victory or draw will allow them to be released early, however if they lose then they are forced to sit for the full 5 minutes. The match will be livestreamed from the penalty box on twitch with analysis from Chess GM and current Bullet Chess world champion Hikaru Nakamura. |
