I get that they made it harder this year, the defense is really good at stopping cross ice passes. The problem is when the defense has a break down and leaves the cross ice pass open, there is less than a 25% chance you will score the one timer. The goalies are just way too good at warping to far side and stopping these shots.

One timers are essential to hockey and a play you see in almost every NhL game. I get that they needed to make the defense better at intercepting passes but they have also went a bit over board with the goalies. The goalies also cheat way to hard to the short side. To the point where the low far side twister is basically the meta on how to score in this years game.

To be honest though I’d rather have the goalies like this and more difficult to score on. It at least makes the games interesting
You playing with player lock on like BBA/PK are? I wonder if that's the difference, because I definitely don't find the goalies to be very good at all. I see lots of tip-ins, rebound goals, and a fair number of top shelf goals when a high-accuracy shooter is shooting.

I really wish I was seeing the better goaltending though...

No I don’t play with player lock. I like to control all players on the ice. I have had games where I score 5 goals. And I’ve had games where I’ve been shut out. But the goalies to me aren’t the problem with this game

Re: The latest update has ruined this game

I quit playing NHL 23 and bought FIFA.

After a few days of playing FIFA 23 I crumpled the disk up and threw it in the garbage. These idiots have made a soccer game where you can't stop the AI from taking shots. Ridiculous.

I still have NHL 23 but have ZERO motivation to come back to it.

EA is the worst thing to ever happen to sports gaming.

It's too late in the year to go back to MLB the Show. Baseball season is over.

I am thinking of trying NBA 2K but I'm not really into the NBA.

Re: The latest update has ruined this game

I hear ya. I went back to NHL 22. Much better to play than 23. EA didn't change much in 23. At least you can score in 22! lol.

I think I might come back to 23.

It's the only thing EA made that is even playable

Re: The latest update has ruined this game

Kinda lost by this thread TBH 🤔

I’m having wonderful games and the goalies are perfectly fine as they are… When the are too weak, people complain, when they are too good, people complain…

Now, they are sometimes good and sometimes weak and people still complain, lol 😂

Kind of lost by your stupid comment.

If you didn't have anything of value to add you could simply shut up

Your the number one person that post on every thread complaining about stuff.

Other people see the point I am making. If you didn't thats your issue.

Next time shut up.

You can't make a thread on here without some idiot saying some smart aleck nonsense.

You can't even have a thread on here without you coming on it.

Others on here see the exact point I am making
