The brightness, flashing etc. may have made it difficult for the goalternders to pick up and track the puck. Given how both Elliot and Talbot both seemed slow to react at times I wonder if there is some truth to this.

Me and a buddy had this conversation today. It's not just the new scoreboard, but the actual lighting to light up the ice is all LED. I definitely could see that being a bit of a factor the first little while. Will have to see how the season goes to really get that sense though.
