Report: NHL receiving backlash for dry scrape rule change, could change by season's end

It didn't take long for the National Hockey League's experiment with cleaning the ice before overtime to be met with recoil. 

The rather aptly-named dry scrape could reportedly be reverted back to a partial cleaning if it's deemed that it's sullying the momentum heading into the deciding frame, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie. 

It was expected to only take a few minutes to clean the ice, but proved to be a much slower process in the preseason, clearly annoying both fans and players.
