Option 1

My rule would not necessarily be a new one, but it would be a change to the existing rule set. For starters, the game would be changed to have 4 periods. Next, the amount of players allowed on the ice would end up imbalanced. For the first period, the home team would be allowed 5 skaters, while the away team would be allowed 4 skaters. Then, in the next period, it would flip. This would continue through each period to simulate what it would be like for there to be a power play, even though it wouldn’t be a power play. There would be a penalty for too many men that would be separate from the previous one, so if you’re the team assigned four skaters and put 5 out, you would be called for a too many men. If you put 6 out there, you get called for two penalties. I think this change would be great.

Written Option 2: How does your player react to getting put into the penalty box? Do they have a fit of rage calling the call unfair? Do they focus on the next two minutes trying to think about what they’ll do when they get back into the game? Does their reaction change when the call is very obvious compared to when it’s a little more ambiguous whether or not the penalty was the right call? Do they plot their revenge on the player who drew the penalty?

Ben Jammin is used to being in the penalty box ever since he joined the league and led his juniors team the Kelowna Knights with PIM's in his rookie season. While Ben doesn't see himself as a dirty player, it is not uncommon to see him racking up penalty minutes over the course of a season. When Ben Jammin was coming into the SHL, he would be very upset at the referees for calling a penalty on him and sending him to the penalty box, however now that Ben is nearing the end of his career and is much older he doesn't care as much as he used to and just accepts the penalty (but if this happens during the playoffs then all bets are off since the games matter that much more compared to the regular season). He actually looks forward to getting a rest while serving a penalty since Ben Jammin's stamina isn't at the peak anymore when he was younger and in his prime days.

2.

Squidwardo Tentacles is no stranger to penalties, the former Yukon Malamute is the franchise leader in penalty minutes and he is now very experienced with talking to the referees and officials on the way to the box. He doesn't try to take the penalties, but he likes to play on the edge. If an after the whistle scrum breaks out and he gets a little rough, or his elbow goes a little high, or the crosscheck is called even though they deserved it, he just smiles with a smug grin and skates to the box slowly. He will often make some light comments to the refs about the situation but nothing too over the line. Just little comments like the other player should stay on their feet, they're soft, or it isn't his fault the player was facing the boards. He saves the harsher words for his opponents and makes sure the opposing players know to keep their heads up when Squidwardo is out of the box as he will be looking to light them up with a (mostly) clean hit.
