I would like to see the rule changed such that the offside has to affect the play in that the goal comes from a continuous sequence involving the offside. If the defending team has an opportunity to establish zone presence and the goal comes off the cycle, offside shouldn’t matter.
Or use with AI and buzz the linesman's watch with onside/offside. End the reviews entirely. Read that Apple is developing a watch specifically with the NHL that provides real-time haptic feedback to the refs for things like penalties expiring, so they don't have to take there eyes of the play. If linesmen have them as well, the cameras could feed them info from the cameras, perhaps.
