Two weeks from last night marks the beginning to the 2017 Major League Baseball season and, while yes I'm aware this is a hockey blog (although I do love baseball, and just about our entire writing staff does too), there's a point here, I promise.

When you boil it all down, all the pace of play talk is around is for one simple reason - make the game more TV-friendly.
