instead of the 2nd goal line how about adding 2 small cameras at the base of the goal posts (or just somwhere inside the goal posts) along the goal line so that the replay official can get a better view inside the net.

I don’t think the line is the be all end all just helping determine if the puck fully crossed the first line or at least that is how I would they use it.

Not buying the second goal line. What if a puck goes across standing on end, and then is quickly swept out by the defense? Goal should count, but wouldn’t have touched the verification line.

These camps kind of scare me. Every year I worry that they are tweaking the game for the sake of tweaking the game. Changing things for safety is one thing, but dont mess with my beloved sport too much.

I like these ideas, with how big the players have gotten adding even a few inches to the ice can open chances for teams to score. The second line seems really obvious now and a very good idea as well.
