This season has been so much fun so far. It is awesome seeing the Flames offence challenging milestones that haven't been met in ages.

Crazy that Tampa is on pace to hit 300 goals with 4 games to spare. Also looks like the Leafs and Sharks have a chance to hit 300.

I will add that your correlation between the goalie equipment changes and more offence is solid but I also theorise a Golden Knights impact on this season. In the 90s teams like the Devils and Panthers played the trap and became far better than the sum of their parts. Other teams copied this. Last season the Knights played a high tempo high pressure style which turned a team of misfits into the Stanley Cup finalists. Other teams copied this.
