the HERALD HAZEN SALES SERVICE T0 LAWN HARDEN MOTORCYCLES DEALER FOR BR IE ANA Electronic age making way to NHL The United Stales Football League this past season was the first pro league to Implement the usage of instant replays to assist officials The National Football League decided It would experiment with the electronic devices during its preseason then study reports in the off season to determine if full time usage could occur during the regular season and playoffs The day may soon come when the National Hockey League too starts using replays to get better perspectives of some controversial plays However 18year NHL Vetera official and Georgetown native Bryan Lewis feels a couple of restrictions would have lo be taken Into consideration There would have to be a strict location he The camera would likely be situated above the net which Is the most logical place Secondly it would have to be used for only disputed goals and using the replay would have to be up to the official and not the upset hockey coach Lewis said using instant replays wouldn bother him I think anything that makes an official Job easier Is good he Bald By making It easier I mean if 1 gets rid of the element of doubt and I to leave after a hockey game knowing I made the right call Using cameras though would never mean Lewis said I think electron ic devices snow per cent of the time an official right people mostly remember the percent of the time when be was wrong BRYAN LEWIS The rulebook says the off icial ha the final decision Lewis said Be It in the pros or a kids league officials are needed The human element isrequirtd The NHL 000 to be spent on officiating and when the referees and linemen gather this week at their training camp in Etobicoke Lewis expects the subject of electronic devices to come up in the conversation I think electronic devices show per cent of the time an official la right but people mostly remember the per cent of the lime when he was wrong Pans are prejudiced and justifiably so I the same way when I go see my boy play They pay good money to hoot and holler which is line So long as they don get physical or throw People yelling at

and managers in the NHL realize that an official position is a lough one We had a meeting between all the league officials and of the league general managers The meeting was to find out our common problems and the intent was to make understandable to them We both have a common interest to make the game better We officials can I be like a leftwtnger depending on his after someone has gone around
