Part of the reason is the parity in the league. I don't know the stats, but would not be surprised to find that there are a lot more one goal games entering into the last few minutes of the third period now than in the past. That, along with teams pulling goalies with 2ish instead of 1 minute, will play into inflated numbers as well.
