Anyone else see this? Rule 76 If a defending player is guilty of a face-off violation, he remains in the circle. A second face-off violation will result in a two minute minor. Getting tossed out of the circle now means going to the box. WTF! So if you get that first violation you basically have to back off and let the other guy get the puck, or risk taking a two minute minor. Winning face-offs is critical part of the game, now you're going to penalize guys for being aggressive?
Also no more spin moves on penalty shots or shootouts. Great, just take away some of the exciting elements of the game why don't ya! Like it needs to be more boring.
I'm not sure if this affects anything from a betting standpoint but I wish they would quit screwing around with the rules! Let 'em play!
