Yeah I don't think this question has been explored enough. For me a more athletic goalie such as Ortio would be the benefactor if this change of equipment comes about. It could be a big game changer that changes the type of goalie we want and it could increase scoring, especially as the goalies adjust.

Here's TSNs report on this.

Here' Corey Hirsch's take on reducing goalie equipment. I think it's well done.
