| | Crybaby Watch™: Cox Wishes They Were Bigger | | 2007-06-07 23:42:00 | | Not exactly sure how I missed this a couple of days ago, but Damien Cox on ESPN.com has cast his vote for the the same silly gimmick oft-proposed by otherwise-heroic colleague John Buccigross. The premise: goal scoring is down. The subtext: the more goals scored the better.Cox blames defense first, which of course has become absolutely stifling in the past few seasons. He also cites the obvious:By the late 1980s and early 1990s, however, all goaltending equipment was being revolutionized by new materials and ideas. While the size of goal pads had always been regulated, most of the rest of goaltending gear hadn't. Quite naturally, that motivated many to go bigger. And bigger.The result was that, by the late 1990s, the available shooting area had shrunk drastically from the 1960s to the modern era.So, the two reasons goal scoring is down are 1) defensive dominance and 2) bloated goalies. Obviously, the only solution is to make the goals bigger! I'm no genius, but wouldn't it be ea | | By: Dear Lord Stanley | | |
| | Crybaby Watch™: Bucci Wants More Room To Score | | 2007-05-15 22:27:00 | | I generally like John Buccigross. If there is anyone who genuinely tries to promote the sport of hockey on ESPN.com, it's him. He used to anchor the show NHL2Night on the same network before they axed it permanently during the lockout, and he's still trying to get it back on the air. His articles about outdoor rinks, teaching his son the joy of the game and his believable support of all 30 NHL teams are truly a gift to hockey.But he insists on widening the goals.In nearly every column he writes, he mentions his obsession with changing the spread of the posts, which he believes will instantly transform the NHL into a league where scoring a goal is no longer a relatively rare event. In his column today, he waited to mention this until the letters section, but mention it he did. A reader asked if GPS tracking devices should be implanted in the pucks in order to accurately determine when a goal has been scored.

| Crybaby Watch | | 2007-05-07 02:01:00 | | I present to you the latest columnist to jump on the whine wagon during the 2007 NHL playoffs.Dan O'Neill of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:Hockey is a tough sell on television. But try selling network execs on tight-checking games that might last 2 1/2 hours, might last all night. They'd rather show "Gunsmoke" reruns. The NHL should not try to tailor its game for television — this isn't the NFL. But if a change makes the game more accessible and more dynamic to the casual audience, the tail wags the dog.How many times can a columnist contradict himself in one paragraph? O'Neill's going for the record, it seems.Dude, shut up. | | By: Dear Lord Stanley | | |
