UNSOLICITED ADVICE!!!
i don't know who needs to hear this, but here goes:
i've played every iteration of this game since NHLPA 93. watched it evolve over time to where it is today. I'm going to give you some unsolicited advice for the 3v3 and 6v6 Chel Club players out there:
if you go down by multiple goals EARLY just back out. just quit at that moment. Don't stick around to get pounded into the net. it is not worth it. TIME IS YOUR ONLY REAL CURRENCY. why waste that precious commodity to get pulverized by people who spend Way Too Much Time Playing This Game (no offense. it's your life, if you want to spend it playing this game, be my guest!).
YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO STAY IN GAMES! who cares about backout/quitting penalties? who cares about your club rank? aren't we here to ENJOY THE GAME WE SPENT MONEY TO PLAY?????
go find a matchup you can actually ENJOY! go find an opponent who is on your level BECAUSE EA WON'T DO IT FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
until they fix matchmaking it is up to you to Have A Good Time. Just last night, my club went down in a game within 10 minutes 4-0 and we all said "nah. let's back out" AND THEN WE WENT ON A TEAR AND WON A BUNCH OF FUN GAMES!!!!!!
tl;dr IT IS UP TO YOU TO MONITOR THE MATCHMAKING SITUATION. DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT QUITTING AND FINDING A BETTER MATCHUP.
