I am all for getting calls right but what I hate about the review process is it involves nothing about how the game is actually called and it I think makes it seem like the refs/linesmen are screw ups. I'm never one for sticking up for the refs/linesmen but generally, they get most calls right especially the linesmen. With the speed of the game, they don't miss very many. So to use video and slow it down to frame by frame and zooming in so you can see a puck be offside by an inch then reversing the call on the ice and telling everyone "the linesmen made a mistake" when in reality that puck is probably moving across that line at 30+ miles per hour, with sticks and legs all over the place, seems unfair to me for the linesmen.
So watching it in real time should be how they do it because that's how it's called on the ice. They should also make so the video coaches for teams are only able to request for a review using real time. If the video coach had to tell the head coach a play is offside only using real time video, you'd only see the blatantly obvious ones.
