I love the rule.
Promotes high skill plays and solid systems/team play, teams that lack those get burned.
More penalties = more tic-tac-toe goals and I like those, so I think that's a positive.
Not having heavy pressure reduced to college basketball timeout scenarios is much more entertaining.
As a rule to promote offense I think it's one of the better ones the NHL has. I wish there was maybe more consequences in the game for things that hurt the pace and flow of a game.
