The icing is really bad now, as a kid it was never like this. Clearly the refs have direction that has changed over the years. If a puck was intended to clear the zone (not a pass attempt) and could have been touched by the other team or was near the other team (for example, bounced over their stick), it is not icing.
I remember a while back hearing that icing is way more frequently called compared to years ago.
