Option 1

If I could add one wacky rule to hockey, we can just make it so that so that the players must be playing in very large and squishy sumo suits. This will now be the official equipment of hockey players and there will be a minimum dimension and squishiness so players cannot attempt to circumvent the rule. However, players can go above the minimum if they want to play with even larger body suits. This would just be absolute chaos as players go for big bodychecks and unintended contact would be increased. The goalies may most greatly benefit from this as they cover more of their net, compromising their movement. I guess with that, that means that the standup goalie which has been largely phased out, is back in business. Overall, this would be a wacky, zany time for hockey players and fans before they certainly and inevitably revolt and have the rule reversed or even worse, they leave the league entirely.
