It's not an issue of high vs. low scoring. Modern pads are taking away from athleticism. Good goalies are just giant guys with equally giant pads. Talented players can't score as easily and need to rely on traffic in front of the net.
Basically, a good team is one that get a giant goalie with giant pads and then break the rules just enough in the playoffs to create "traffic" or "grit".
