I think I put WAY too much up there. For a game your goalie isn’t starting, but is the back up, has to be simmed. Because “You’re Not Starting Tonight”. BUT, I’m the back up. Sitting on the bench. In pads. If the starter gets pulled, my goalie goes in, but I can’t control him. Sure, I have auto sim penalty off, but that only protects the line score. It does nothing for my save percentage, which is key to challenges. I’ll try with Auto Save off, but I’m just starting a new goalie in the Champions League.
Turn off Auto save… when you complete the game you played, you overwright your current game. Then you continue. IF your goalie gets pulled and your stats are ruined, simply leave the game and reload from where you saved. Problem solved.

No, that isn’t the issue. I’m the back up. I HAVE to sum a game that I am not starting. The starter ends up being pulled from the game, my goalie gets put in, but I’m not controlling the goalie. I can’t. I had to sim. If there is a chance that my goalie goes on the ice for a game, I should be able to control him.

If you are looking for a solution to your question, the answer is no. There is nothing you can do about it. It sims the game and it wont stop if the starter is pulled. Thats how the game is. If you are worried about your stats, then the only way around it is to turn off auto save.

Talk bout a massive design flaw. Why not sit on the bench and sim the game through that? Sorry, makes too much else to implement into a game where you control one player, but they make it to where you can’t control it all the time. Brilliant. Auto saving isn’t going to save my stats that I don’t physically play my goalie in. That’s only going to work if I’m literally controlling him in a game and I mess up.
