The rule I am proposing to be introduced isn’t exactly a new penalty that will be enforced, but rather a new form of punishment. Instead of losing that player to the penalty box for 2, 4 or 5 minutes, instead the team that goes on the power play will get to play their back up goalie along side their starting goalie for two minutes. On top of that, the offending player gets their skate blades removed and must play the entire two minutes, basically crawling around in the ice trying to play defense. Also, the offending team’s goalie has to wear a paper bag over their head for two minutes. For every goal the team on the power play scores in that two minutes, another skate blade is removed from another player on the offending team. If the team in the penalty kill scores short handed, they are immediately given the win and the losing team has to forfeit and leave the ice in shame.

John Brown does not sit for the entirety of the penalty when he is called for one. Instead he stands loudly and proudly facing towards the audience, the crowd of attendees, and proceeds to prognosticate towards them enthusiastically. He feeds off the energy of the crowd, good or bad, and loudly declares the evils of slavery and the existence of the modern slave trade in the form of the American prison system. John Brown loudly informs the crowd of his opinions regarding the abuse that prisoners face, and how they are not released after a mere two minutes of punishment. John Brown takes this time very seriously, often to the point where occasionally he'll be *asked* to leave the penalty box by the official, as John Brown found himself in the middle of a very intense moment of proclamation, one that requires him to finish his point before departing for the ice. It's okay though, most people love it and those who don't don't matter.

Generally, Sunrise has no problem entering the box and keeping the scuffles to a minimum since there is no point in egging things on. Maybe if the coach wishes so? Otherwise, he will just do things as he pleases. He generally sees himself as a player that follows logic but if situations need him to act up, he will gladly do so.

He also refuses to throw a fit when a call is more dubious. There really is no way to change a referee's opinion as far as he knows so he would rather let the media scrutinize the referee instead. If he ever gets upset over it, he never really shows that.

He also would rather not get revenge at an opponent. Mostly because you never know when you might end up playing along with them at some point but also because that would be a waste of energy best spent somewhere else.

Whenever a pair of skaters start getting chippy on the ice without it escalating into a fight, referees will be quick to call an Unnecessary Physicality on both players, with the severity of the encounter being judged by the official and the level of penalty (2 or 5 minutes) assigned accordingly. Once both skaters are in the box, a hole will have been cut between adjoined boxes with a chessboard in between. Each player's chess clock is set to half the penalty's duration with the home team getting first move. Whoever wins the match, either by checkmate or by time, may leave the box immediately with the sum of time remaining on both clocks being how long the winner's team has the power play for. Stalemates just result in 4-on-4 hockey being played for the full duration of the penalty.

This gives hockey players a chance to show off their astute mind and knowledge of chess, as the bullet format encourages quick thinking to complement the adrenaline rushing through the skaters' bodies. I think it will also give rise to a new type of agitator since they'll get called for more Unnecessary Physicality penalties if they can provoke a reaction, and if they study chess in their free time they can generate power plays for their team.

Thomas Liebold would never do anything wrong so he has never had a penalty called on him that was justified. He also knows that a ref probably will not change their minds after making a call so he does not bother complaining if he ever does get a penalty, instead he focuses his efforts on getting on the refs good side before the game even starts. To do this he goes into the refs locker room and offers to tie their skates before games, he also drops off gift baskets to each ref filled with muffins and chocolates and assorted fruits as well as handwritten notes. This method has proven very beneficial because so far he has never had a season in the SHL with over 33 penalty minutes. This is very impressive because he still plays physically and hits the opponents which just goes to show how great his strategy is for becoming friends with all of the refs in the league.

Aksel is an old man and is so annoyed by the youngsters feigning one way then speeding around him the opposite way, and asks to get that outlawed but no dice. Refs say that's a part of the game and he should just skate better. So then he asks to outlaw chirping. Gets turned down again. He goes back to his team and asks them for the stupidest thing they can think of that makes them upset. He gets 2 people that say they don't like when tape is hanging off of socks so he goes back. Asks for that to be outlawed. Amazingly, it works. If your tape isn't secured, 2 min penalty. Aksel thinks that's absolutely stupid but doesn't say that, and anyway he wears the garter things that hold up his socks so he's fine. He keeps an eagle eye during the first game of the season, points out an errant tape job to the ref, and gets a sick powerplay off of being a dick. He bets everyone will be wearing the garters by week two.

Option #2:
I think Thomas at this point understands that the referees are trying their best, but they are all punk-asses for calling it when the other team has been doing it ALL GAME. Ever since the referees got caught "evening" up the PIMs, Thomas has assumed every call is like that. Doesn't matter the validity of that statement. All calls against him are about evening PIMs. Now that means when he goes to the box, the ol' sin bin, he fumes. He plots his revenge. Words are said. They will rue the day that they ever tried to make an example out of Sawschuk. However, it is hared maintaining that level of anger, you know? So if its like a 5 minute major, he will be well cooled off by that point. If its a minor, then he will probably be less mad by then. Still mad of course. Sawschuk doesn't have the mind of a squirrel or anything. Its not a memory thing.

Graphic Option 2: Draw your player getting called for a penalty and being put in the penalty box.

Written Option 2:

When going to the penalty box, Sven Holmberg remains calm. He may question what the referee saw, but he will never argue the call or complain about the call. The only thing he does is look after the referee to see if they have their arm up and are making a call. If no arm is up, he continues on. He does the same for if he is the one that might have committed the penalty, or he is the one that may have had a penalty committed to him. There is no reason to complain about the call, or lack there of. It won't magically change the referees mind, if anything it will bias the referee for the next time. The only thing Sven can do is skate to the box and serve his penalty, hoping that his team can kill of the time he spends in the box. One of Sven's bigger issues is the bench continuing to argue the calls, and ending up taking a penalty for complaining to the referees.

P1: New rule: "Dance-Off Violation." If a player celebrates a goal with an elaborate dance that lasts more than 10 seconds, it will be considered a "Dance-Off Violation."

Penalty: "Dance-Off Duel." The offending player must face off against a player from the opposing team in a center-ice dance battle lasting 30 seconds. Both players take turns showcasing their best dance moves, with the crowd and judges (selected randomly from the audience) deciding the winner. The game is paused during this time, and the spontaneous dance-off entertains both teams. If the offending player loses, their team will be penalized with a two-minute power play for the opposing team. No further penalty is assessed if the offending player wins, and the game resumes.

This rule is called approximately once per game, adding a fun and unexpected element that delights fans and increases engagement while creating additional power play opportunities, making the game more dynamic and entertaining.
