I'm interested in knowing what the experts think the proper length
of an on-ice shift is these days.    No special circumstances,  5 on 5,
how long for forwards and how long for defensemen  --  in seconds.
 
        Please E-mail me your opinion,  but only if you play the game,
coach the game,  or consider youself somewhat of an expert.   I'm having an
important argument with someone whom I believe to be out of date.   (Those
who know me and can guess with whom I am arguing should kindly restrain
themselves from chuckling.   You will probably have to deal with this some
day yourself.)
