Re: My goalie is always horrible!!?

The game wants this to happen so you play stronger with all the players.  In real life a goalie doesn't stop every shot that comes at him, and if you are playing on the Rookie difficulty the goalie will.  This is why I prefer playing All-Star difficulty. Hope that helped 🙂

  • I'm not playing on rookie!! Read the post. On pro difficulty or higher. And I play defence just fine if the computer only take 11 shots in a game and scores 4 times on a 97 goalie, defence is not the issue.

    That's not what davispaz99 said or implied, he was just using this as an example. Opponent's AI is rigged to do better than your own with higher difficulty, as rallycap91 put it. 🙂

    Same here, it's been happening for years.

    I have a goalie rated 84 or better and by the end of the season he has easily the worst save percentage in the entire league.

    Most will be .900 to .935 and my goalie will always finish with roughly an .830 

    I don't get it, and it's always goals late and from the point or some really bad angles.

    Computer only gets about 5-15 shots but scores at least 2 goals,

    where as I always get over 35 shots, sometimes about 60 yet still only have 0-5 goals.

    hahaha

    oh well.
