One by one questions #1

Hi, Why when you take a slap shot without aiming (or sometimes even while aiming), the puck goes straight (on)to another player on the ice? What's the mechanic behind that? Thanks.

No. I meant when you are in your own zone. Try a free aim slap shot. It will go directly on an opponent (AI or not). Not near, not close, DIRECTLY on it. Have EA ever talk about or explained the magnet?

The "Magnet" here is a ridiculous "pressure system". Hockey players are leaping like basketball players, effortlessly catching my 130 mph slapshot with their glove without any injury. Everything goes directly on an opponent. That’s EA’s implementation, and it’s just absurd.
