What are people hearing at their clinics about the new rules, especially the goaltender smothering the puck rule?

Here's what I've been told:
a) Goalie covers it outside the crease - delay of game. No warning whatsoever.
b) Goalie covers it unnecessarily in the crease - one warning, next offence is a delay of game.

Hey thats also a great tip for me.
Yet I kinda like things 'in writing' and as long as they are then I dont have to assume...
So, where and when is 'our' (Officials) game going to stop and the "REAL" game start? IT CAN NEVER HAPPEN.
'They' write the rules book and 98% is enforced.
Imagine:
- getting a penalty for slashing the stick 6" above the heel.
- a slight cross check in front of the goal.
- a slap on the pants.
- a slight slash on the shin pads.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
Who tf is going to call that?
Then THEY (and the game) have made the game the way it is.
Oh well...
Game on...
