@bigwill; I've played 12 games online and I'm 10-2, averaging 1.18 goals against. Sorry if I feel to relate to all of these complaints about bad goalies.
why do you keep glancing over what centurius is really pointed out? Nobody cares how many games you have won. The real issue are goalies not playing like their real counter parts.

I could care less if lundqvist allows 6 goals in a game. I would love to see him play in his crease all game like he does in real life and have his anticipation be heads and shoulders above other guys.

NOt have him play like the other 30 starters.

you must work for EA cause what are you really defending here? you dont even understand the point OP tried to make.

Lastly sliders will have no affect on correcting these goalies. YOu have to edit the attributes to eliminate the warping and fix the a.i. Even after those edits they will all play the same.

shocking how some dont realize these goalies defy physics...

Yet nba 2k8 did....

All we ask from ea at the least is physics. Have these goalies push off a leg if they need to go cross crease. Or how about differentiating between aggresive and passive goalies? Athletic or blocking types.

You can force someone to the outside all day and they can come down and snipe top shelf on the short side by flicking my stick in on a fake and then your goalie will bite hard off the post for some reason nearly every time. They pay no attention to the defensive help they have or the fact that there is no passing option far side, they bite on the pump when it isn't...

You know what man, forget it,. This isn't even worth the key strokes. Take care, enjoy your game and telling everyone how they are wrong and what EA has in the game is right.
you got called out.
play the man.
PROVE IT !
cant just "pick up your ball" and walk away when you get challenged big man.
play him and stream it too.

What more needs to be said? At one point he had 2 goals on 3 shots (both cheap "sweeping" Dekes). I'm not sure if I can take anymore of this.

The goalies feel out of place. The game feels great and all but then you have these goalies that seem to live in the past.
