This will give superstars more time and space on the ice, resulting in more awesome highlights.
While I agree officials have to monitor liberties taken against them more closely, I completely disagree with the idea that they should be treated differently. That allows them to take advantage of that "preferential" treatment and embellish to draw more calls (see McDavid).
