1. Get rid of the shootout. Only major sport to resort to a mini game to decided potential playoff spots. Play a 10 minute 5 on 5 OT period. If no one wins its a tie.
2. Get rid of the loser point. Again why should a team be rewarded for managing to get to overtime. Its stupid.
3. Fix the officiating. Both on ice and in the video review in Toronto. It is atrocious. I don't know a quick fix to this one.
4. Get that sorry excuse of a franchise out of Arizona and get them to Quebec City pronto.
5. Make the All Star weekend good again. This gimmicky crap and 3 on 3 again just sucks.
6. No Jersey ads
7. Ditto on live board ads.
8. Arrange the draft lottery so any team in the NHL can win 1st overall with odds weighted based on standings.

I disagree with ties. The last thing the NHL needs to do is to make the games longer. Handing out ties again is no better than giving the loser point, it's probably worse. Where is the incentive to win the game in OT if you are guaranteed a point for a tie if you are a bottom feeder team? If I am a crappy team and I have played the 60 mins and I am tied, I am stoked. In OT, I am locking that game down as much as possible. I am stacking the center line with 4 guys, having 1 guy back in the D zone. Anytime the puck comes near me, I am making sure I am 1 step over center so it's not icing and firing it back down into the zone over and over again. I won't forecheck, or take a single chance. I sit back for 10 mins and say try to get past me at center, I'm playing for the the tie point I wasn't supposed to get. At least with 3 on 3 and then a shoot out, there is a winner. This is pro sports, there should be a winner and a loser, not participation points.
The Allstar weekend can never be good. What makes hockey great is the speed of the players, the physicality and the guys putting their bodies on the line for their team. No player is going to be playing down blocking shots or trying to hammer guy and risk being injured in an All Star game. All it will be is what it used to be, 5 guys on the ice over passing, doing everything they can to not get in a way of a puck or a shot or trying to get hurt.
