Sorry, I can't see your point. WHY do you think these guys will get more ice time? One could also argue that teams still want to give their starters two thirds of the starts or even more because the total amount of games (and therefore also the weardown) is reduced. Who stops Rinne from playing 50 contests in 60 games season? Teams would still want their go-to-guys to get into a rhythm before the playoffs start.
