Punishment for leaving games

The amount players that are just leaving games because they are either scared of their stats, or are leaving because of human goalies or their just being blown they should have to play through it because they are a team you win as a team and lose as team and that's not being realize in a game where it's supposed to simulate the of playing like a team. I only want people punished for leaving ranked matches in 3v3 and 6v6 and any other ranked mode except quick play. An Idea would be to a casual 3v3 and 6v6 modes without the rank system in place and even a mode for us to the arcade threes mode without being an eliminator. I'm overall just sick of people leaving it proves that players are losing what sight of fun in a games in hockey you shouldn't be scared to lose and you should enjoy yourself that's real hockey. Punishments should Include massive loss of rp and rank down and if they continue bans starting at 30 minutes and increase to to several days depending on repeating to leave. Another form of punishment is Stat reduction reduce certain stats to make it harder on the players leaving games and you could take from their point stats for leaving all forms of ways to stop people from leaving the games and improving the experience for people and casuals.

    I support you, as I myself face the fact that people leave in the middle of the game. Need to take action for this behavior...

    When you lose the coin flip of the AI goalies specifically and the other team has 5 goals on 10 un-screened weak wrist shots from the point and your team is coming up on 30 shot's against their AI Shesterkin it's completely pointless to stay in that game, it's not going to allow you to win. Now leaving a 1-0 or 2-1 game, sure, it's wasting everyone's time if you're rage quitting that game for whatever reason, but getting blown out because your goalie is throwing isn't fun and out of the player's control. This is reported by a majority of the player base as the main reason they leave/quit games. Now fix that and then you can talk about punishments for leaving a balanced and fair game. It's not "real hockey", it's a video game. Video games are about enjoying your free time, if you're not allowed to actually compete to win in some games than you should 100% be allowed to move on to the next one whenever you want to.

      It’s not how it works. Players should receive punishment regardless of game outcome or performance. Punishment of players is very common in successful competitive games such as R6, Counter Strike and many others, and it works very well. NHL needs to implement this feature.

        No, they don't. I do agree that a quit should be a large deduction IF you can somehow manage griefing in the game. You're saying that people getting griefed should just have to suck it up even though one player purposefully sabatoging their game experience. No thanks.

    This is exactly what i’ve been saying for a while now. So many players just quit the game after a couple goals and just give up. The reason why this doesn’t happen nearly as often in other competitive games is because the players receive considerable consequences for such actions. Take Counter Strike for example, each leave/abandon of a match bans them for different increments of time increasing the more you violate the match duration. Sometimes people have disconnects or crashes, and the game gives you time to reconnect, but if a player doesn’t, they abandon, hence the ban.

    If they prevent clubs and friends from joining dropins, I'm all for it. I don't want to join a team of random people and face a team comprised entirely, or even partially, of people who play together all the time. It's not fun to just get blown out 10-0 because you got the one defenseman that doesn't understand that he is not a forward.
