I don't know Money, and maybe someone who knows more about Goaltending then me can pipe in, but I tend to think that the style of goaltending that's played today is more taxing then the goaltending in the 80's which was standup.

Goaltending now is way more active, also there are a lot less shots from the boundries then there were in Grant Fuhr's day when equipment was smaller and slap shots were used way more often.
