Booting from club games

Yeah, this should be turned off by default in club. 

Hey there, @Marvie03 

They have to do more than just take 2 penalties. However, getting scored on while in the box gives you a bigger hit to teamplay. Once your teamplay grade drops to an F, you'll be kicked. Things like causing an icing, going offsides and losing faceoffs also decrease your teamplay grade.

Can anyone at EA explain why people in a club game are getting booted for team play?  One of our dmen took 2 penalties in a game and got booted.  I get it in drop ins but it makes absolutely no sense in club games.

I wonder if the teamplay kick is a result of searching for club games with drop-ins allowed. This would make sense for the free agent acquired, but not so much for members of the club.

That's probably exactly why.. but they can probably still find plenty of ways to troll. I'd hate to play center and have a bad connection and lose too many faceoffs.

Happened to me last night. 2 assists, 3 hits, 3 blocked shots, 0 turnovers. I took one penalty with about 5 mins left in the first then about 30 real time seconds into the second period I got booted for team play. No logical reason, hadn't done anything to warrant a low team play grade...I also am a member of the club, not a drop in guest...

This stuff needs to get fixed ASAP...

If it happens again, can you take a screenshot of your grades and stats?

It just happened to me because I got a lag spike for 40s and was stuck in their zone.  This happening in club games is unacceptable and illogical at best.

This should never happen in a closed club game where drop in teammates are turned off.

I wish I saw this before playing again last night.   Happened again last night with 7 SECONDS LEFT, after an offiside where I WASN'T THE OFFENDING PLAYER, but I did note it:   This time with one goal(which was the GWG), one assist, +3, 1 turnover, 4 takeaways, 2 penalties(not stick infractions, the egregiously soft netfront interference when chasing a rebound).   Pass % was 75%.   

Team play at the end of the second, where I had taken my penalties was B-(around 72%).   When I checked my recent game stats, the team play was down to 10%.   You're telling me ONE offside call was worth 62% dropping?, An offside call where again, I was not the player that went offside?  This is completely unacceptable in club games and needs to be fixed ASAP.   It's very close to game breaking.

If the option to allow drop in free agents is disabled, this should be too. I understand why its there, to prevent drop in trolls from sabotaging club games...but the point still stands.

Great in theory, terrible execution IMHO.   I'm 100% behind the idea, it allows us to fill the roster, but protects against trolls. But it shouldn't even be applicable in a full club game
