Do not change the dimensions of the ice. Wider ice means plays kept to the outside, less turnovers, and less scoring. My minor tweaks are as follows:

-Reduce goalie equipment
-No coaches challenge on offside
-Penalties: Make them serve the full 2 minutes and call icing.
-Remove delay of game penalty for shooting the puck over the glass. Make it the same as icing: no line change.
-Let goalies play the puck!
-3-2-1 point system
-Remove shootouts: in regular season play 3 on 3 sudden death.
-In Playoff OT have first OT 5 on 5, second OT 4 on 4, then go 3 on 3.
-Finally, kind of pointless but why not: remove the neutral zone face off dots and just have every neutral zone face off at centre ice.
