NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Perhaps it wasn't the ideal setting when you think of it, a few days before they might get lit up in a 3-on-3 All-Star Game, but four All-Star goalies got their first look at streamlined goalie equipment aimed at giving skaters a little more to shoot at next season.
There's still lots of work to be done but Cory Schneider, Ben Bishop, Braden Holtby and Devan Dubnyk on Thursday met with Kay Whitmore of the NHL to look at the prototype pants and chest equipment produced by a few manufacturers.
