That sounds like an NCAA discussion. Some team is being rewarded for a penalty by being able to ice it. I can agree with them completely if it was 5 on 5 skaters, but given that you have reduced the number of skaters by 20% (5 to 4) would it be made up and surpassed by the ability to ice the puck (which was a knee jerk rule to begin with way back when). To take the point of the discussion as if things were equal and then say there was a "REWARD" is pathetic ignorance only the NCAA could conjure up.

If I remember correctly, the main point of the discussion was that the team
that committed the penalty was actually being somewhat rewarded by having
the option of icing the puck without restriction.
