I get my son dressed for youth hockey, and getting some of his older, smaller jersey arms over the elbow pads is a huge PITA.

That makes sense - that it would be driven by smaller more aerodynamic padding and then the jersey cuts and fits would follow suit.

Perhaps there are fewer hockey pad manufacturers than football so there's no real change driver.

Also maybe since black guys tend to be the drivers of on field drip (with apologies to Derek Carr, the drippiest player in football) and the fact that there's no black guys in hockey that's what's retarded the style evolution
