The NHL are going to slimmer pants for the goaltenders. Goalies found with the fuller pads they originally wore will be suspended for two games and the equipment manager will be fined $25,000. The slimmer pads different breezer pants the goaltenders wore feel different and the equipment feels different but no one really noticed the difference. New equipment will take time to get used to like breaking new gloves.

Speaking of goaltenders their were two significant shutouts in the NHL on Saturday one was by the Buffalo Sabers Robin Lehner who stopped 37 shots in a 4-0 shutout over the Ottawa Senators the other was a shutout by the Detroit Red Wings Petr Mrazek who stopped 42 shots for a 1-0 win over the Nashville Predators on Saturday.
