Sorry mate but in my opinion any goal that is used over and over again with success would be classed as a glitch goal, a sweaty goal or whatever its called where you're from.
23 had the wrap around
24 has the cross crease and the far post goals.
It may be possible to defend against on occasions but its how the goalie reacts. Exploiting something that you know has the highest possibility of beating the goalie everytime and doing it continuously with success no matter what the player rating is, I'd call that a glitch goal. I don't know all the lingo you guys use in the US/Canada to describe things, I try my best with the limited knowledge I have of ice hockey. I'm Scottish, we live and breathe football (soccer). I'm in a tiny minority here that has any interest in NHL gaming.
I'm not trying to nit pick. Just curious/desperate to see if 25 is going to be better than 24.
It's ok if you think they are glitch goals but these are not labeled glitch goals. An example of a glitch would be the puck going thru the back of the net and going in. The goalie throwing the puck into the net.
Now goalies are getting lots of improvements that may cut down on some goals, but people are always crafty in finding ways to beat the CPU goalie regardless.
