Yeah, I'm not having an issue with who has the puck at any given time, it's more with tracking after a pass, or especially a shot.

Also, it seemed like no one registered the 10:00 horn for a couple of seconds.

Yeah, but that's what i'm talking about too. You can (usually) see players reacting to a pass coming too them and opposing players trying to block the pass. And usually you can predict where/when the passes are going to be made by watching all the players on the ice to see open lanes/where the defense is/ where someone is breaking or trying to get open, etc.

True enough. I don't usually have this kind of problem watching other games, so it could also be a sign that I just need to buy a bigger TV...

Was a lot easier to see that last Chicago goal, maybe the shadows are helping too.

Also the ice surface seems to be holding up well, but that dark seam showing up by the near face-off dots is a bit odd.

It's probably part shadows and how "shaky" almost the camera is. It is a bit disorienting, but I actually like the distance away from the play and the angle it's showing the play at, because you can see the entire zone, including defensemen at the point, rather than just to a little above the circles. The only thing that sucks about the camera is how it's moving IMO.

Well that's kind of a rare classy gesture that the caps put CR stickers on their helmets too.

Also less of a chance of the camera man missing the play because they move the field of view to where they mistakenly think the puck went
