How they can't agree that it's detracting from the game is beyond me.
I'm honestly tired of celebrating, feeling a palpable shift in a game, to sitting around waiting several minutes to find out it was all for nothing. There's confusion, and there is disruption in flow of everything. Players are pissed, coaches are pissed. All because a coach/ref may or may not be able to see something on an ipad screen, and could've gone either way.
The borderline stuff needs to go the way of the on ice call, and the overturns only made for the obvious and blatant offences. Otherwise why have the call on the ice to begin with, doesn't mean anything now. If they can't determine what it is in the first seconds of looking at it, stick with the call you already made.
