Please work on EAs ability to clarify things. Don’t just say “small goalies”, tell us 6’3” and below or whatever the change is.

This is how I am seeing the Truculence buff.  Since all these leagues ban the use of it most people aren't running it so they see it not being used much.  Thus the need to buff it more.  Could be wrong but it's something I could see them determining from data.

As for the height of the goalie buff I will try and find out.

    @KlariskraysNHL I have to believe they're not so disconnected from the community that they're not aware of league rules and take that into account.

    But then again this is just so bizarre. Who was asking for a truculence buff?

    I hope next year they don't rely so heavily on tuning the game via x-factor adjustments. It doesn't help with fundamental gameplay problems.

    @KlariskraysNHL Sounds very likely. Somebody didn't contextualize the data before presenting it.

      Am I the only one that finds this hilarious?

      Yet another update to waste what already is the worst NHL game in its history. 

      Take a bow guys, fantastic work 👍

        @Stubo_NHL24 Thing is in the previous year it was complaints of them not doing anything. They are trying to make more traits relevant overall which isn't a bad thing. Now what stinks about the data is that most leagues ban the use of Truculence so out of league games we still don't use the trait because there is no reason to play with it when you won't have it in your league games.
