Not yet, but I have heard USA Hockey was trying to develop a lighter puck that didn't bounce as much. (All the while claiming the blue one doesn't bounce.)
What do you mean????

It already exists, it is the same as the big one only less diameter, weight and height.

My kid used it, my grandkid uses it. My cousin and I used it, years ago.

And they already have a black light weight foam type that is years ahead of their blue one.

Don't you dare keep tempting me like this :lol: :lol:
Not saying they are wrong, but I have a letter from an Olympic hockey player that serves on the USAH youth council basically stating that the people that have put this together went into it with a preconceived idea.
He is asking that further study be done and by 'more qualified' and less biased people.

It sure feels like that. You posted rules and they are already labeled for recommendations to accept (or not). I think they know what they want to do and have built a case for it.
