If it doesn't increase goal scoring but does increase the athleticism of goaltenders making saves, that's still a win.
Much more entertaining watching Rask make reaction saves than watching Gigučre or Luongo make shrug saves all game.
Gloves and blockers will hopefully be next, a lot to trim there without giving up protection.
The most important and hardest to implement will be the chest protector.
