How about a fix to the goalies

This is just my opinion, but I firmly believe a goalie's ability to make a save is somewhat determined by human actions. If you make a terrible positional lapse, I'm of the belief (not saying this is true) that the goal probability calculations are affected if the game determines you've made a particularly egregious error. 

In your example, you can see there's a defender being controlled by a human. This is determinable by observing the player actively skating towards his goalie during an incoming rush.

 This was a terrible defensive lapse that allowed McDavid to take a totally uncontested backhand.

When you consider the nature of Ultimate Team modes where every player is OP and maxed out attributes mean every shot can be pinpoint accurate, the way this play shakes out is par-for-the-course in HUT.
