Your player is most definetly injured. The only way it's possible to get that low of speed is to get injured. It doesnt say your injured because of one of many bugs in Live the life but you can expect bugs in an entirely new game-mode. You most likely have either a leg injury or a head injury which is causing you to skate so slowly. Continue playing and eventually your injury will be healed and your attributes will be back to normal. The only down side to this is that there is no way of knowing how long it will take to heal.

I am replying to you in the hopes that you see this. I wanted to address your comments that OP's character's speed became 40 due to a hidden injury when it was previously in the mid 90s. No injury could cause such a speed decrease. I have seen broken leg injuries to players that only applied a -20 speed modifier. If a broken leg injury applies a mere -20, what could you possibly attribute OP's ~50 point drop to? The amputation of a leg?
I don't know why OP selected your solution as the solution that "solved" their problem. I suspect they were lazy and wanted to grasp at the most reassuring explanation they could first find, without actually testing to see whether your solution was correct or not. Hint: It is not correct.
Please see my posts earlier in this thread for details on what happened to my BAP character. I have now played 2 in-game months since my durability went from 99 to 36 (the bar completely emptied). The stat has not refilled. My character most definitely is not and was not injured.
This stat point loss is a complete or near-complete loss of stat points, and it is permanent. Before the off-ice event gave me a free +10 durability and free +10 endurance, my durability was at 91. When the character was generated, his durability was in the low 70s. Do you know how much XP it took to raise my Center Playmaker's durability from the low 70s to 91? Thousands of XP, especially when I was in the upper 80s, as each point required 325+ XP. All that XP is now lost.
This is a significant and serious bug. One could argue that your Be A Pro stats are at the core of the Be A Pro game mode. Why is this point overflow/point reset/point loss happening? Was this not playtested? How was this bug not caught before release? It's so critical to the Be A Pro game mode and yet players have lost entire stat bars worth of XP!
I consider myself lucky because I only lost durability! OP lost all of his speed! My condolences go out to players who lost a critical stat like that. Imagine playing a character with 40 speed! You might as well break the game disk and throw it away, because you're not getting back on your feet, gaining XP, and filling your speed stat anytime soon with a speed of 40!
I understand that there are other bugs for which players are clamoring for fixes, like HUT puck loss (which I have encountered), glitch shots, and music issues. However, these issues don't break an entire game mode. Be A Pro can become wholly broken and unplayable if you lose an entire stat's worth of points, depending on the stat.
While I suspect this is due to off-ice event stat freebies, I don't pretend to be a playtester or dev. I won't assume the fix is easy to spot or perform. I won't threaten to boycott EA or call the company names. All I want is an acknowledgement of the problem, and ideally, if they can figure it out, a concrete explanation of why the stat loss occurs. Is that really too much to ask for? I have been and plan on continuing to play every game in a season with my Be A Pro character, but I don't want to invest that kind of time if my guy's stats are going to hit rock bottom whenever I get a stat to 99.
Note that prior to this I was saving my game with two different names, leapfrogging them every so often, like a prior poster suggested. This should not be the proper way to try and avoid a ridiculous and major EA bug since the bug shouldn't exist in the first place! If you use this method and encounter an off-ice event that boosts your stats, since the events occur after games, and since your prior save will be before the game, you will have effectively wasted all the time in playing that game. What if you had a great game? What if you had a great game that helped you work towards a Legends Milestone? What if the off-ice event still happens anyway?
I will continue to bump this thread until this gets acknowledged. If I have to start another thread to reignite this discussion, I will. If necessary, I will contact EA support via chat, email, or phone. I am not the only person to have this problem, as a quick read-through of this thread shows that others have encountered the same thing.
Thank you for your time.
