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.
