Tja, am Ende kommts, wie es immer kommt. Keiner weiss, woran er eigentlich ist. Die Leute lernen es einfach nicht. Sie hätten einfach nur mal einen Blick zu uns rüber werfen sollen, und dann hätten sie gesehen, was man mit solchen Regeln (also alles pfeiffen) erreicht, nämlich bestimmt nicht, das Spiel attraktiver zu machen. Ich wiederhole mich, aber das beste und interessanteste Hockey gibts IMHO immer bei 5 gegen 5 und es kann einfach nicht sein, das man künstlich die Anzahl der Tore erhöhen will, indem man für jeden Scheiss Strafzeiten gibt, damit es mehr Powerplay gibt. Wenn ein Spiel nur noch aus Powerplay besteht, dann hat man immer eine Mannschaft, die stürmt und eine, die immer nur die Pucks hinten raushaut. Ist das Hockey, wie wir es sehen wollen ? Also ich nicht...
Dazu ein interessanter Bericht, in dem sich All-Star Brett Hull sehr kritisch äussert über die Leitung der Spiele diese Saison (von ESPN):
Hull says obstruction emphasis is hurting the game

DETROIT -- Brett Hull isn't happy with the NHL officials and the way they're trying to crack down on obstruction.
"I don't think the refs understand the rules," Hull told Booth Newspapers on Wednesday after the Red Wings' 3-3 tie with the Los Angeles Kings at Joe Louis Arena. "The rules were meant to stop the obstruction between the blue lines and they don't even call that.
"It's terrible," he added. "It (new standards of enforcement) is meant to make the game better and it's making it worse by the way they're calling them. One game there's two penalties on each team and then two games in a row there's 15 each. It's ridiculous."
Hull told the newspaper that referees are misinterpreting the NHL's mandate to crack down on obstruction in the neutral zone by making too many frivolous calls in the defensive zone. He made his comments after the Wings were short-handed seven times during the first two period on Wednesday. The Kings were also short-handed seven times.
He wasn't the only player to comment after the game.
"Sometimes the referees are not sure about what they're doing," Wings center Igor Larionov told Booth Newspapers. "One game they're calling something, the second game they're calling nothing at all. I don't understand what's really going on because I don't think we deserve that. We got so much skill and talent and we're getting so many penalties. It's really hard to get going."
"They need to have some sort of meeting or get-together with the general managers," Hull said. "It's not fun (to play) and it's certainly not fun for the fans to watch."
Players aren't sure how to adjust their style of play.
"It's frustrating to try to put a game plan together and all you are doing is killing penalties and playing on the power play all night," Hull said. "How do you adjust your game, you don't know what they're calling. Lewie (coach Dave Lewis) came in after the first period and said, 'I don't know what to tell you about the penalties anymore because I don't know what they're going to call.' "
The fine for criticizing officials in the NHL is $1,000. For coaches, it's $10,000.
"It's not fun for everybody to play the game and that's not good," Detroit coach Dave Lewis said. "Hockey is a game that should be a lot of fun and tonight at times it felt like a struggle rather than fun."
Gerade den letzten Satz sollten sich einige Verantwortliche in der DEL mal genauer angucken, und vor allem: Verstehen, was gemeint ist !!
