Very different game for sure, and goaltending is a big part of it...but to claim that these "snipers" are showing more skill is ridiculous. Cornouyer got a breakaway and just (boringly) walked around a sprawling goalie. I'd much rather see a guy have to really deke or pick a tiny corner than that. And where's the hitting? Slashing, grabbing, and cross checking is NOT hitting!
The only thing from that game superior to the present game is that the faceoffs are clean and fair!
