NHL's GMs to propose expanding coach challenges
www.espn.com
At the league's general manager meetings in Florida on Tuesday, an expansion of the coaches' challenge to include a video review of puck-over-the-glass calls was discussed and will be sent in for approval by the league's competition committee.

Looks like we might be getting reviewable delay of game calls in the near future.

    And high-sticking calls. Agree on both fronts. One thing that kinda jumps out at me, though, is that a failed challenge results in a 5-on-3. I’m fully on board with disincentivizing frivolous challenges, but assessing a two-man disadvantage seems excessive.

    EDIT: I just realized 5-on-3 makes sense considering both of these situations mean the challenging team was already about to go down 5-on-4.
