BaP - shooting percentage

Minor gripe, but shooting percentage is a silly stat to use for career progression. Shooting for rebounds is a solid strategy that the game rewards. It's a bit frustrating to fail a challenge because I dipped below 12% after scoring 2x the required points with over 90% overall.

I mean, would a coach really penalize a player who averages a goal and assist per game because they put too many shots on net? Might make sense to grade based on either points scored OR shooting percentage so you fail if you are chucking pucks on net without getting results.

  • Or even better - grade on PP points weighted against time on the PP. If the challenge is to stay on the PP (or advance to the first unit), it makes sense to judge based on PP production. 

    There's no world where a coach would make decisions about the PP unit without looking at the PP stats. Shooting percentage is (at best) a secondary stat that could be interpreted to mean a few things. There's no arguing with a PP unit that scores goals.
