Unless they make the nets a lot bigger (like 6x8) I doubt you'll see much difference in scoring in the long term, but I'd bet the game will be more boring as the defensive structure become more rigid to make up for the changes in net size.

I agree with this, thanks for posting. I wasn't able to get that point across.
If you increase the nets an inch or two, you might get an extra goal/game. But I doubt in the long term you would. Coaches would adjust. If you make it drastic, like a 6x8, you may get more goals but is the game going to be much improved? I think coaches would again adjust and focus on defense.
I like hockey the way it is, and I don't need 1 or 2 more goals per game to make it entertaining for me.
Oh, and get rid of the GOD DAMN TRAPEZOID. So stupid.
