Please fix in the next update

I’ll start this with I feel this is a huge issue offline even though I see it constantly happening to people online. The “own goals” need to be tuned less and less. On both sides. That’s the only way half the goals are scored in this game is if I’m accidentally knocking it into my own net or the CPU is doing it to theirs. I also feel that stick lifts should have more success when you’re in the correct spot defensively. I’ve seen it countless times where I’m facing the puck carrier and the animation is just too slow that you miss the stick completely and you’re just hacking away at their arms. I’ve also tried hard to remember to hit L2 when puck battling for the loose puck in front of the net but in certain times you’re just not thinking about it and you’re hoping to be shooting the puck. I’m hoping you can change it to where if you wanna puck battle and push someone in front of the net it should be the other way of hitting L2 and R stick. Now it should stop the countless “interference” penalties in front of the net. It would let heat of the moment let you try and get that shot off, and still appeases players (like myself) who want to move the bodies out of the way.

    In addition to offline, hits need to come down still. Way too many of these huge hits that in any normal game are called for charging. Too many of these big hits end up being injuries too. I’m not one to turn off injuries but playing franchise mode this is the most injuries I’ve ever seen. 20 teams have at least 3, and 10 of those have 4. I shouldn’t have to have one of my D guys lose half his energy off a faceoff because someone wants to be a tank and barrel through while I’m skating back towards my net to send the puck to a winger when the A.I. remembers how to hockey and they get free

  • Own-goals are a gigantic problem in online as well - would love to see something done about it

    It's been an issue since NHL 11. I'm sure they'll solve it soon lolll

    At least players avoid the net a tiny bit less in 13 years. That's good.

    @TheUnusedCrayonYes, it most definitely has been but I actually think after the last patch it's actually worse. I'd say overall in my offline games 65-70% of the goals are own goals or random ones that bounce oddly. It's so rare to see an actual nice shot go in.
