Imo, if you can't beat the trap you deserve to lose to the trap. It's a perfectly valid tactic, but the only people who bitch about it are usually the ones on the receiving end of it, oh and the fans ofcourse. But teams don't play for the fans, they play to win (argueable, yes).
And how will the NHL get rid of the trap exactly ? Ban it ? Don't see how, it's a perfectly legitimate tactic.
Although I agree, the pads on the goalies are getting too big, its like you got a freakin' Zeppelin in goal.
