I know this.
I, too am a hockey official ... not only softball. In fact, a Level V Official within the CHA. And, I am a full-time hockey writer here at Officiating.com . I have met and spoke to at least 25 on-ice officials with the NHL, as well as Gary B.; Andy V.H.; and Ron Hoggarth.
The NHL system is something I am used to, and it is taught that the officials do whatever they must do to be in the correct position to make the right call.
What do you mean about 'basic mechanics' ?
