I'll, I'll say I would like to get rid of the, penalty on a goalie interference challenge.
If you lose a goalie interference challenge- just lose your time out and leave it alone.
It's, it- the, the offside makes sense.
It's black and white.
It either is or it isn't.
But the goal tending interference is, it, it changes day to day.
It changes who's looking at it.
They can, the league can tell you all day that they've got this, you know, consistent system and how they look at it.
Like, there's no way.
It's, the, the, a call you get one day could be completely opposite the next day, and that's, that's fine because it is, like, it's a judgemental call.
So however you feel that day, however you're watching the game, we're people, it's gonna, that call's gonna change.
So coaches should be able to make these calls and not fe- and not risk losing a hockey game or changing the whole hockey game when, and when it varies day to day.
but you still lose your time out if you lose it, and you lose the opportunity to challenge later in the game.
I like that one.
I'm buddies with Kay Whitmore, so I always bug him about the goalie interference and I'm like, "Please-" I love giving Kay a hard time. "
define it for me."
And he can never, you know, we always go back and forth with this.
But you're right.
It very much is subjective, so you know, I like that one.
Normally I would just say get the final, you know, have it end earlier than we typically get, but we're on June for- 14th and it ended this year.
I, I'm pretty happy that it didn't go into the 20s, guys, you know, interfere with my cottage season here.
