Renaud Lavoie announces a possible rule change in the NHL
As we told you in the last few minutes, Montreal Canadiens GM Kent Hughes experienced a first today when he attended his first ever NHL General Managers meeting in Palm Beach, Florida.
During these meetings, many issues are discussed and rules may change. This could be the case for the famous issue of payroll during the playoffs and the use of the long term injured list. (or commonly known as the "Nikita Kucherov rule")
Apart from that, some rules can also change in practice, on the ice, during games. Notably, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports, we may have our first rule change in 2022.
This was an irritant denounced by many observers and fans. It remains to be confirmed (obviously), but it could be the first notable change announced for next year.
It is therefore possible that we will have more video replays, for the 2022-23 season, in order to properly determine if there is a major penalty on certain sequences. (or not)
