Goalies

They are so bad it totally wastes the game. 

Unscreened goals from just about anywhere in the o-zone 

Every perfect one timers is a goal 

Dives out the road of the puck. 

Gets beat too easily near post and far post.

Glide - protect puck - shot = goal every time

    I have seen some doozies sail in from the blue line, that's for sure. But I think you're overstating it. "Just about anywhere" just isn't true.

    Not true.

    There's some floppy stuff going on, that's for sure. They're not diving out of the way of the puck but there's definitely some urgency to execute flashy save animations.

    Yes this is true. There's some wonkiness happening when goalies come off the post and you can exploit this by shooting short side while skating out of the corner.

    This is not true. I'd challenge you to post a video showing you scoring this at will in succession.

    This is at least a better description then your post WeTheNorthhh​, examples and clips are key.

    Stubo_NHL24​ can you provide some clips as well, itll be easier to see whats happening. Maybe its post collision of the goalie avatar that is an issue for those near sided shots, maybe the screens are lasting too long in another, things like that can be seen in clips. Appreciate it.

    I keep experiencing regular slap shots from above the circle and along the blue line go in so easily, not screened either. That has been 90% of my goals against in HUT Cup Chase tbh.

    Im not familiar with the mode myself but a slap shot is faster than the wrist shot naturally so I assume its the same issues of the goalies reflexes being too slow for the shots their facing. Are the goalies in Cup Chase named NHL Goalies or generic like in WOC? Either way, if they dont have an ability to stop that specific shot, I would bet that its a similar issue, and even more so if youre using an ability like rocket.
