I'm just saying, every year we have people claiming a goal is a glitch when it's really more about not recognizing your opponent is taking the same shot over and over again without defending it. A real team is going to look for holes in their opponent's defenses and exploit those. If there is a goal that's a legitimate glitch, we'll get it reported to the team for investigation.
First off, if you want to defend, DRAFT AND HIRE defensive players. It is much harder than it appears. It is far easier to find offensive forwards than defensive forwards. After several years of franchise building I was able to stock my team with forwards that could play defense as well as the average defensemen. I always have at least 3 guys on the ice with superior defensive ratings.
The goaltenders are definitely a problem too. It is dumb to spend a fortune on an "elite" goalie when he doesn't perform any better than a "starter" in most cases. SAVE YOUR MONERY
