Community ManagerI play Rivals matches. I also know these goals can be defended. Again, it would be good if you posted video so the community could give you some advice for defending these shots better as they're really nothing new. People have commonly scored with cross-crease and far side shots for years.

There's good cross-crease goals and bad. I agree that passes to the forehand in a ready position have a great chance to go top shelf consistently but the one-timers where it's someone leaning ahead with his stick outstretched from one hand and they direct that top shelf the majority of the time that are unrealistic. It's about realism more than anything for that I think.
Community ManagerSo, the issue isn't cross-crease goals, but you think redirecting the puck and going top-shelf by stretching your stick out is unrealistic? I guess we can agree to disagree again. I'm not seeing a lack of realism with this. Sure, they aren't happening every day, but they aren't exactly unrealistic.

You don't see anything unrealistic because you're able to find one clip a year where it happens in the NHL? This is why it's so difficult to communicate, send in clips and give feedback because you guys think the most outrageous plays are normal and you don't even know how wrong they are.
Community ManagerThe average person is also playing a far higher amount of games than there are in a regular NHL season. It's also possible you're seeing more shots. People also attempt the same shots over and over and over again. If all you do are cross-crease attempts, this is more likely. This particular shot is really uncommon for me, for example. Regardless, it's a realistic way to score.
