Spittin' Chiclets host Paul Bissonnette sounded off on Gary Bettman and revealed he would have fewer TV timeouts during periods to really boost excitement. Paul Bissonnette and the Spittin' Chiclets crew are <a href='https://www.thehockeybeast.com/nhl/paul-bissonnette-wants-the-nhl-to-reduce-tv-timeouts/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>constantly brainstorming innovative approaches to improve the game</a>, and this new suggestion might actually get attention if it is sold to the right people, cough cough, Gary Bettman. In one of the latest episodes of <a href='https://x.com/spittinchiclets' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Spittin' Chiclets</a>, Bissonnette discussed something that each hockey fan on television has to deal with every game, the ads. In every game, there are three commercial breaks for each period for both fans and players to have to deal with during the match. Some players seem to benefit from the addition of these breaks because they can give them time to recover and re-strategize. Biznasty, however, offers a different solution in an attempt to improve the overall experience for viewers at home. <h3>Bissonnette is okay with increased intermission lengths</h3> He believes the intermission breaks need to be increased in length to meet the financial needs of the NHL, but in turn, there should be fewer stoppages during the periods. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/spittinchiclets/status/1888301659375227137'> </a></blockquote></div> Yes, they should, and I've said it before-if they don't do it, they're f-king idiots. Enough with the TV timeouts. Reduce them. I think right now, we have three TV timeouts per period. Sometimes, the way they're scheduled, you'll have one, and then a minute and a half later, there's another whistle, and they go to another TV timeout. It's brutal. It's like going to an NFL game. Oh yeah, but the commercials, the amount of money you make.' Buddy, make the intermissions a little bit longer. Give people more time to grab a beer. And then, when the game starts, you're f-king dialed in, and it's moving. And then some people say, 'Oh, we don't come to watch the fourth liners. The breaks give the top guys more time to rest.' Shut the f-k up. - Paul Bissonnette It will be equally exciting and curious to see how hockey as a sport is broadcasted in the coming years given the change that is expected. Will Gary Bettman take Biz's advice? Many fans sure hope so.
