Quennville said a couple years ago it evolved into mostly for rest on a late icing now. IIRC that's been changed though. He says the worst one he ever called was an attempt to change momentum.

The other problem is the interference challenge. Use the timeout, you don't get to challenge any more. Lets say GG used it in Edmonton after the game was tied. Then he wouldn't have been able to challenge the OT goal.
