So What Are The Columbus Blue Jackets Up To?

Do More Pucks In The Net Mean More Butts In The Seats?

Found August 11, 2008 on Taking One For The Team:
PLAYERS: Jarome Iginla,  Evgeni Malkin,  Alexander Ovechkin,  Marty Turco,  Martin Brodeur
TEAMS: Calgary Flames,  Pittsburgh Penguins,  Washington Capitals,  Dallas Stars,  New Jersey Devils

Are Gary Bettman and Co. going too far with their planned restrictions on NHL goalies? Are we headed back to the 80's where goalies did little more than pick the puck out of the net after feebly attempting to stop it? One can only hope that the NHL's powers that be will ultimately learn that more goals does not automatically equate to better hockey.
