Thoughts?
I can't see the harm in opening up a couple spots.

2 goaltenders each x 14 players is 28 goaltenders. We have 30 teams in the league with 2 goaltenders each, so that's a pool of 60 goalies. Lots of teams use the 2 tender system so it's not like there are 30 goaltenders and that's it. Probably more realistically 45 out there that will see significant playing time this year. We could open up 2-4 more spots.

Makes drafting more skilled as well. You can't just pick premier players on your bench, you have to start looking at depth players.
