There is an easy solution and a far more difficult pathway to try to boost scoring in the NHL, which was part of a discussion that took place Tuesday during the league's general managers meetings in Toronto.
As far as Jonathan Quick is concerned — to use a song lyric — "There ain't no easy way out." The Kings goaltender rejected the idea of increasing the size of the net as "ridiculous," and suggested first reducing the size of the goaltender's equipment.
"The easy way is, like all right, let's just make the nets bigger because it's just saying, 'We don't give a crap to try to actually do it the right way and put as many people on the payroll to get it down the right way,'" Quick said.
