I play a lot of goal and I don't really see a huge difference.... much of it is pretty subtle. But I can see Elliott's point about it being form fitting and having the equipment right up against you. Taking a 80+ MPH shot in games/practices mutliplied by tens of thousands will eventually lead to injury.
If that's the case, the changes may be taking things a bit too far. A change in equipment should never lead to an increase in injuries. They may need to find some middle ground that still provides the best possible protection.
