I think having something similar to the NBA last two minute report would be very good for communicating what the NHL head office thinks is and isn’t a penalty. So the last 5 minutes of a game the NHL should issue a report on all the correct and incorrect calls and correct and incorrect non-calls.

This does two important things: it shows the public what is and isn’t a penalty and it shows the nhl is reviewing and holding officials accountable.

I think one question that needs to be answered is are we sure we want the same penalty standard all the time? The number of 5 on 3s will dramatically increase as will penalties in the last two minutes of a game.
