How? I thought it was changed to reduce stoppage of play from teams dumping to force a line shift


before you used to have dudes racing down the ice and getting clipped from behind and breaking their legs etc

Even with icing now called by the refs you still can’t do a line change

Really? Didn't know it was that bad. When I watched as a kid the refs would only let the icing play out if it was a close race for the puck, and I didn't see many injuries from that.
