You're given the green light to make one rule change for the next NHL season. What rule are you changing? (feddit.uk)

Bettman says he's okay if you want to bring back the rule against forward passes, he doesn't mind if you want to revert to old-school icing, he just demends you keep it to one rule change; you know, evolution is better than revolution...

What rule are you changing, tweaking, binning or creating.

Eliminate the loser point and have the records as W-L only, with goal differential/head-to-head as the tie breakers.

I'd rather personally see the 3-point system like exists in Europe for this. At least the whole system would be zero-sum at that point.

Plus the last 10 minutes of every game won't be so bloody conservative. Teams will want to go for it

Precisely. We'd see a few track meets like the Canes-Panthers OT, which was straight up insane.
