You are now like the bus in Speed and must maintain a minimum velocity of 15 km/h every time you step on the ice or else your skate blades fall off. Maybe introduce a thing where the goalie gets points by avoiding shots which are on goal, and the opposition gets points if they can hit the goalie with a shot? Kind of like a shots on "goalie" stat? regards, G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed watching all the diff teams & goalies. btw, great ol pics Johnny Bower... Gilles Meloche!! That guy would routinely face over 40 - 50 shots a game. regards, G.

Esposito, or grant fuhr, could definantly play in todays game. carey price ,pikka rinne , ben bishop are 'big,good' goalies but there certainly not the majority. then i'll steer the argument to which canucks team was better the 94 or 2011 version after utubing and refreshing my memory,watching both series i'll take the 94 team all day long ,as for the speed of todays game check out the 87 oilers team on utube . overall todays game is bigger and faster ,but I haven't forgotten how good some of the players and goalies of the past were in comparison. Not saying they couldn't play. I'm saying they probably would never get the chance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is (and always has been) that a guy that size would likely get passed over in the draft, because the trend in today's NHL is to draft taller goalies.

I listed 5 of nhl.com's current top ten goalies and of the 5 scnieder was the tallest of the smallest 6'3" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skategal Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Didn't we draft Michael Di Pietro who is just 6ft? He seems to be doing ok so far, granted he's in the CHL at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all for banning the stopping of the puck by the defensive team in the Trapezoid. I hate when a player skates behind his own net and just holds the puck, watching the teams change and get setup in their trap. No stopping got to keep it moving, would make goalies playing the puck more interesting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erkayloomeh Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I want a three goalie system where you have to play both tenders in a game they switch at the closest whistle to ten minutes into the second. The third being the backup so if you make a change it has to be your third goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
