Of note with the Puck Over Glass rule, if you challenge and you're wrong, you get another penalty ON TOP of the original one. Whether that's 4 minutes of 5 on 4 or a 5 on 3, I don't think it was specified, but still an important thing to remember about that rule change

​@paladin677 They should want it. They would have guys like Hawerchuk, Selanne, Roenick, Khabibulan, Tkachuk etc as their history. Utahs franchise rookie player goal record should be 76. Despite their lack of playoff success they've had some really good players in their 40+ year history

[@daviddean81]

Agreed. Shannon is absolutely right by saying that giving it back to Winnipeg would be ridiculous. The current Jets have Atlanta's history, who by the way didn't have the Atlanta Flames history. The Pens don't have the Pirates history, the Flyers don't have the Quakers history. What about NYC and Montreal? They've each had three teams. Montreal's three teams all played at the same time. The Rangers played against both NYC teams. None of those teams share history. Jets/Coyotes history going back to Winnipeg should never be on the board.

[@grahamdamberger7130]

One thing I would add to the net getting knocked off is, if it gets knocked off deliberately, it should be a penalty (don't think we'll get another Leggio situation, but you never know), and the other skaters on the ice stay on for the start of the PK. If it gets knocked off in a situation where the player tries to avoid the net but knocks it off anyway, or is unable to avoid knocking it off, no penalty is given out.

[@oldhab7890]

I wish the NHL instituted a 2 minute time limit on video reviews. If they can't overturn a call on the ice then the "infraction" was so minor as to be insignificant.

Offer sheets are way underutilized in the NHL. Any pick after 15 is so random, taking the sure thing in a 25 year old makes way more sense. Necas is worth up to the 8.5 compensation limit (a 1,2,and 3)

[@justjohnny420]

Carolina would match the 8.5m limit though. The team would have to do a ridiculous offer giving up 4 1st round picks and hope the team doesn't have an off year in any of those 4 years

Additionally he is a player that doesn't want to be there and you are trying to move so you have to factor into that matching of would you rather a 1,2,3 after failing to trade him before the deadline, or be stuck with 8 million and a player who doesn't want to be there anymore.

Interesting puck over glass review should be kinda nice. I Iike that its only a review challenge and not for missed. Good to see the goalies being held accountable for thier net imo. Leg over is going to be a weird adjustment, but again i like this one and dont mind. 3/3 I think this will be fine as far as game impact.

[@dennis2376]

To bad the board did not address the off side rule and the consistency of calls.

[@JustBob-sw4rf]

Question on the puck over the glass challenge. If the challenging team loses the challenge do they then play two men short. Or does the extra penalty get served after the first one. The two man short situation would be a big deal. But playing short for 4 minutes isn’t much better. Either way, I think this will be a VERY rare challenge because of the high danger involved.

[@petra_kalbrain4426]

[@JPS47]

5:07 this happened before in the NFL when they gave Cleveland back their past history when the Browns came back in 1999 after moving to Baltimore in 96 and treated Baltimore Ravens as a fresh expansion team. The Ravens and Browns don't share the same history.

[@gordonmacdowell8117]

Glad they resigned Blueger. It might mean they're going to try to keep the 3rd line together, provided they can sign Joshua for a reasonable deal.

[@cluntbaby9735]

5:30 The NFL did the same thing when the Browns moved to Baltimore. It's weird but not too weird. The weird part to me is the history of the franchise being in total limbo now

[@buzzsaw1000]

My problem with the puck over glass challenge is that refs might err on the side of calling the penalty now, like they do with majors now. So while this past year there might have only been like 3 challenges for puck over glass had the rule been in place, that could greatly increase if refs change their way of thinking.

[@TheMur28]

Franchise history should always stay with the franchise through relocation. anything else is just rewriting history. To make a quick detour from hockey, the Baltimore Ravens should have the original Cleveland Browns history, for example. but that doesn't mean that teams and cities shouldn't be able to celebrate the history and accomplishments of previous teams in their city. The Sens have Stanley Cup banners from the Original Sens, but they don't claim them as their own championships, for example.

[@trapjohnson]

So, Meruelo out, does that kill off the 5 year resurrection? Or can that be achieved by a well monied new group to end the hiatus?

[@switchgear100]

[@mikeJones-zo8si]

Does anyone else think the call for puck over glass is the only automatic, if the ref sees it he can’t ignore but a trip or a hook can just be ignored.

[@FritzyBeat]

The idea of "histories" being tangible things that can be traded around one place or another seems so silly to me. Winnipeg still HAS all the history of the OG Jets, it's not like you need some weird official ownership or something of it. Likewise Utah HAS the history of the old Coyotes and Jets franchise whether they like it or not. It's how it is going to be remembered historically, whether the NHL's paperwork says "Well ACTUALLY..." or not. Seems to me to be all about branding.

[@JPMadden]

I would like to see the first puck-over-the-glass for each team in each game be a warning, then call a second infraction a penalty.

[@lordrayden3045]

The more o think about that, I think that’s fair

[@CallMePray]

If the Canucks can somehow get rid of Mikheyev and sign big Z, this could be the best off season in Canucks history

[@Ramuh.]

I think the leg over the boards won't increase penalties, I think it will decrease them because we'll probably see less too many men calls. The most it's called is when it's hitting players who just jumped on or off, so if it takes that half second longer and you can't bolt out, it might make for more deliberate changes

[@Flickerform1]

that could be true. ever since the ref was injured back in march i've been noticing still so many legs over the boards and nothing done about it. but it also seems like higher than average too many men calls.

[@switchgear100]

my guess is we will see a number of penalties in the preseason and maybe 2-3 games into the regular season as players break habit. After that the call will mostly disappear and hopefully will also decrease too many men penalties with it

[@michaelleroy9281]

So the Jets/ Coyotes are in the same situation as the Seals/ Golden Seals/ Barons, defunct

[@Slidezy]

Leg over the boards penalty is dumb but I think the others are a good idea

[@jonmendelson1104]

Why is it dumb? It's a negligible change to the game that makes things a bit safer. Players and officials skating past the bench no longer have to worry about the knives hanging off the wall.

[@jayjayson9613]

If anything we need less chances for coaches to be able to video review. I absolutely HATE the offside review, its ridiculous

[@ronpeacock9939]

As far as the history staying w/ Meruelo, I think that's in the same stream as the Browns move to Baltimore and Cleveland kept the browns name and history. Well, Alex kept the Coyotes name and history... so this is the second time... but since Alex is letting go... I think the history should go to either Utah or back to Winnepeg.. if only then the Jets old logo's become property of the new jets..

Draisalt is worth 13-13.5 imo. I don't know if Edmonton will be able to pay over 12.5 to him without dumping nurses contract to someone like the sharks for 2 firsts and a few seconds.

That's like selling your company, but the next owner is forbidden from comparing their earnings to the earnings they had under the original owner. That is so weird, ya it should go with the continuity of the franchise, I think it also makes no sense to put it back in Winnipeg.

[@Sekushiwolf]

I still feel like puck over the glass shouldn't be a penalty, just treated like an icing call during even strength. If you're on the PK and fling it over the glass then it can be called as a penalty to avoid players doing it during the kill to stop the attack.

[@kftc1980]

Players do it for the same reason when they are hemmed in at even strength, so why only when shorthanded?

[@Biggskye]

I don't see the puck over the glass challenge being used. Wouldn't that put a team 2 men short if they get it wrong? Also, with the Arizona owner bowing out, does that put the nickname "Coyotes" as a possible choice for Utah?
