Played for 35 years, three years Jr.A, coached for 10 years. I know some stuff about goaltending. Goalie technic is always changing and this style is not conducive to longevity. It may stop more pucks but with the average three years in the league most goalies can't sustain the stress this style puts on their knees.
While Dan Cloutier is a shorter goaltender than Demko at 6'1, he also had numerous knee injuries as the Canucks top goaltender. His goalie coach at the time is also Ian Clark.
He too busy in net for guy his size it's fun to watch but not sustainable long term. Hellebuyck looks sometimes awkward but it works and how many games he is able to play with that style.
You can watch the full length podcast episode this clip is from on this channel. Thanks for watching the show :)

Being tall is so much stress on your knees normally, even not being in butterfly and doing those movements.
