Goalie Stances

Hello,

I was wondering if stances were purely cosmetic or if stances had an impact on your goalies ability to get animations or make saves. It seems like the retro stances have a harder time saving lower shots because how close their legs are together. 

  • Thank you for the response, so that would make sense why people believe the wider stances are “better” since their legs are in position for typical shot selection.

    Hey there, @SeaZop 

    The stances themselves don't have anything programmed into them that makes them perform differently. However, your pads may be in better position in certain stances just based on where players tend to naturally shoot.
