First, I would drop the instigator rule. Any team who sent out goons at the end of the game to injure someone/cause problems when they were losing would get a $100,000 fine and the players on the ice would all be suspended 3 games.
Second, grandfather in visors. Players already in the NHL wouldn't have to switch, but anyone coming into the league or the AHL would have to wear them. People who argue against visors are parroting the same arguments against helmets when they were phased in.
Third, eliminate Atlanta and Columbus, Move Carolina to Hartford, TB to Quebec, and Phoenix to Winnipeg, give Chicago and Boston new owners, and tell Minnesota that they are the Northstars now.
Finally, if a goalie leaves the crease to play the puck, he is fair game to get hit. the same rules about hitting other players would apply to hitting goalies. e.g. no spearing, has to be playing the puck, no charging, etc.
