The curves are intended to prevent goaltenders from hugging the posts. Personally, I think they should just force the goalies to wear smaller equipment. Even if the NHL likes the Sabres idea, I think the crossbar should remain un-curved.

Matthew-
I agree that they should not change the goalie nets to that horrible curved thing. But we shall what they decide to do when the time comes. Hopefully not go with the new nets!
Look at those empty seats behind the glass...its a shame! As to answer the real questions, keep the nets the same. They new ones look cool, but the old ones are better. Where would the goalie put his water bottle with a curved cross bar?
