If we're going to do anything to increase scoring, I'm intrigued by increasing the height of the nets. A 6'4 goalie shouldn't be able to cover the top of the net while in the butterfly position. We should be pushing for athletic agile goalies in the NHL, not tall positionally sound goalies that take a minute to get off their ass (See Bishop).

I hate what he represents, but to be fair, that was because of a torn groin.
