Any BAP Goalies on yet?
If so, what are your thoughts on The goalie animation and play, the goalie build and the goalie style you choose? Are the attributes the same whether you chose Hybrid, Stand-up or Butterfly? Are the...

I'd watch some be a pro Goalie YouTube videos. I've seen a few already out.
Ive seen a few as well and this is what Ive noticed.
- The goalie looks exactly the same. Same animation. I HATED how the goalie looks in ‘26. Looks unnatural. The elbow on the stick side is as big as the characters head. Ive given EA videos on how the glove side arm would stretch and look like a tenticle and not a human arm on certain goalie stances. But the glove side arm would stretch and touch the ice. I have to wait until these guys posts videos of them in the NHL to look at their limbs and how they move.
- The attributes appear to be identical to last year’s version. I mentioned that in ‘26, regardless of goalie style. Hybrid, Stand up, or Butterfly, the attributes will be the same. Glove high, stick high 86, 5 hole is a 66. In ‘26 I tested this out and sure enough, regardless of style, all attributes were identical. In other words. EA broke it. I watched one of the youtubers video and it briefly showed his hybrid goalie having 86 glove and stick high with a 5 hole rating of 66.
Not exactly encouraging to see what is essentially NHL’26 reimagined yet still broken
