I don't see reducing goaltender equipment size as making changes to the game or tradition as that's simply a correction as it kind of took on a life of it's own in the 90's where it just kept getting bigger and bigger with the addition of cheaters. It should be reset back to 80's size and with today's technologies there is no excuse that it can't be reduced in size as it's not like goaltenders actually get injured stopping pucks as their injuries these days are mostly groin and knee related due to the wear and tear of playing the position not the equipment.
