Removes large penalty boxes, opens up some prime and highly priced tickets, and just let the penalized players sit on their own bench. Heard Sutter mention this a handful of times now.

It's a slight advantage for the penalized team because they can get the player they want out right away when the penalty expires. I suppose it cuts down on the talk between penalty boxes and potential scrums on the way back to the bench after coincidental penalties.
