That clip of the guy scoring with some outrageous flick was impressive... when I finally caught what he'd done on the fourth replay. |
I've never needed anything indicating where the puck is when I watch hockey, whether it's zoomed in, or zoomed out. There is a 'standard' camera angle that shows about a third of the ice at any given time, and the puck is quite easy to see, anywhere on the ice, unless it's moving incredibly fast, or along the near-boards.
Then again, I've been watching hockey since I was a baby.
My biggest beef is usually that they don't zoom out ENOUGH from the action. I want to see what the whole team is doing at all times. I want to watch plays develop, not just the end result.
