here are 5 videos from a game that I just played. I am playing as an enforcer defenseman. I have the difficulty to semi-pro with 10 min periods in preseason:
this one is me playing my last shift in the 3rd period.

this one is my coaches feedback with 1:28 left in the 3rd and me just sat down on the bench. as you can see I'm well above the percentages, especially in teamplay

this one is my stats for the game right after the buzzer. as you can see I had 1 assist (which I tried not to get but somehow did), 8 hits, +3 and they did not score when my player was on the ice, and NO SHOTS ON GOAL WHAT SOEVER.

this one is at the BaP menu after a game. I went DOWN 1 form score

and this one is at the main BaP menu. as you can see my first game I was at 100 form score but went down after the second game.

this is what we are talking about. why would an enforcer have to score goals just to stay in the league? my job is to HIT people. I even got an assist and it STILL went down. even if it was only 1 point. that's not the point. I played MOST of the game because it was preseason. could you imagine if this was regular season and being on 3rd or 4th line NOT playing a lot? and again this is on semi-pro with their poke check accuracy/power to 0, and stick check to 0. could you imagine playing this on all-star or super-star and leaving all sliders at default? I tried that and my form score tanked over 30 points because 1) they scored when my player was on on the ice, 2) had shots on goal but did not score, and 3) we lost. oh, and again we won which helped (I guess) but I actually tied to lose. please please please fix it.
Thanks for all the input and for gathering the clips. I'll pass this on to the team.

OK. I just played a game on super-star with my enforcer defenseman right after the patch to the game and here is the results:
this video is right before the game ended. as you can see, I have a B+ in overall coaches score. my defense is almost 20% over target and my teamplay is at 100%. offense is just barely over target but it is over. I did not score a goal, get an assist but was was +1 in +/-.

this video is at the menu right after the game. I still dropped 8 points in form score because I did not have a point. granted that is better that before but I should not have dropped at all since I actually had a good game. everything was above target %.

again I'm a enforcer Dman and my job is to punish the opposing players, not score points. it needs tweaked a little more in my opinion. if it is to much to tweak the form score maybe lower the form score percentages. like if right now you need to maintain an 80% form score, drop it to say 60 to 65. as you see in the last video my Dman got 66 so I would have went up 1 point instead of losing 8. not asking for tons of points but let if vary for what your player is supposed to do. even forwards don't get a point every game, even if they win. what do y'all think

This is good to know as I am not home yet to test. That's unfortunate, I was really hoping that it would be tuned to be closer than that to your coach feedback score like you're referring to. At least they seem to make it better, but definitely makes you not want to play as a Defensive or Two-Way Defensivemen, Two-Way forward, Grinder, or Enforcer.

Did you notice that the -8 number is the average of all the games included in the coach's assessment, all 8 games in total? So one game doesn't affect it that much... So if you play 5 good games and 3 bad ones, the number will easily fall below the target.
What i see your stats, god **bleep** 10 hits in one game its like superstar defenceman... Only 20 minutes ice time, real life typical defenceman hits like 4-5 times on 25 minutes ice time. Blocking shots too. This coach not give any respect for good defence.
