It seems as if you get two different games going at times....
Some games seem fine.... both sides seem to be equally matched. There may be a glitch goal or 2 that decides the outcome, but you get shots, they get shots. Goalies play well and may have 1 to 2 bad plays. My eashl club plays with guys who are Legends and we have tweaked, maxed, ect.... to maximize our performance... This does give us a slight advantage over teams with lesser rated people, but we by no means run them right out of the rink...
Then, with out explanation comes the nightmare game. The other team moves at the speed of light, their CPU controlled guys are puck vacuuming gods. Their goalie is the reincarnation of Roy and Broduer if they could procreate. (cpu goalie at that). Their human players just dominate in every way... speed, agility, toughness, awareness, passing, shooting..... Our goalie is as useless as tits on a boar. Every exploit is used to further the humiliation.....
What I want to know is ..... what is going on... The point of the attributes and player choice is that you have to give something up to be good at something else. If my skills are optimized then how are they that much faster, agile, tougher, and skilled at every level. I can recognize when someone has better stick skills in a game, but this is not about skill with a controller. It is a dominate attribute advantage that has no explanation.
Questions: Does your choice of team effect the skill sets of your CPU controlled team mates? (Ours seem mildly handicapped in my 2nd scenario above)
What determines the skill sets of the CPU controlled goalie? Our opponent's cpu goalie moves on the cross crease pass at will and denies the shot. Our goalie waves at the puck as it goes past them for a quick goal on the other side.
Is there a way our opponent either has gained "extra" attributes or some how reduced ours?
The game when on a level playing field is one of the greatest experiences I have had in video gaming for 20 years. This makes it all the more frustrating when you walk into a buzz saw that has no explanation what so ever. Something smells and those who are using the exploit are not talking.....
Feedback???
Late,

I think you can take this post and apply to to real life NHL. I mean some games your team looks soft, some games they are aggressive. My team, the Sabres, some nights Miller plays lights out and other nights he is a revolving door.
You just do the best you can and hope in the end you can pull out the W.
