A goalie fan as everyone knows so I get notifications and lately the talk has been all about the Leads back up issues.
It bothers me because what no one admits is the NHL has changed,what happened to make the nets bigger,never mentioned anymore,
The league wanted to stop the hits on the superstars,so it is all but gone from the game,almost reminds me of gentleman's hockey now,basketball with goaltenders.
Price,Quick,Holy,Murray,they didn't lose their edge,they still stop the first shot,most of the time,but that third pass stuff in the slot reminds me of all-star games,not a chance.
So better get some fire power if you want to win,the 80's are back,Oilers 9 - opposition 7 goalies,worthless due to pulled groin injuries.
