TORONTO -- NHL general managers spent part of their fall meeting Tuesday discussing potential ways to increase scoring and one idea gaining steam is restraining all goaltenders in institutional straight jackets.
"We are all going to wrap our heads around the straight jackets for a while and see if it makes sense," Florida Panthers general manager Dale Tallon said. "We talked about goaltender equipment or bigger nets or style of play and those type of things. But one thing we all agreed on was that locking up the goalies arms and restricting use of their upper bodies would open up the nets in a big way.
