Perhaps 3 on 3 is the perfect time to implement a shot clock.
I know my proposed changes are pretty radical - would just love to see some of them tried in ECHL.
But here's one that I bet could get close to unanimous approval from fans: only one coach allowed behind the bench.
Of course teams would find ways to game this - ass't coaches becoming 'trainers' or vice-versa, players going into the tunnel after every shift for coaching, direct link ipads, etc. but I'm sure there would be ways around it.

how would only one coach behind the bench increase the safety or entertainment value of a game? I don't think makes sense for any team sport to have only one coach with access to the players during game play.
