NHL 21 complete mess!

What happened to EA??? They used to be so... average.... at making hockey hockey games. This one is a complete mess. The goalies are non existent. Even with the sliders all the way to 100, the goalie...

So about fatigue... how exactly is that computed regarding the length of the game? Can you wear a team down to where in the 3rd period even though it says they have full energy it will decrease at a much more rapid pace due to taking hits and how much the player has expended energy in previous periods? It's so hard to get the details of what actually matters vs what does not like even on the attributes what all they mean etc. Shouldn't EA have the details spelled out much better somewhere?

@BillCarmody 

The previous periods aren't taken into consideration. Energy is maxed out between periods and drains as they play. Hits and hustling are the biggest contributors to fatigue.

    So essentially you can't grind down a team over the course of a game. At least I know now. thanks

    Correct, but you can grind them down over the course of a period.
