It seems really fun and fast paced. I dont have any problems scoring either, can consistently get at least 2 goals + an empty netter.

I play on All Star sim. It helps you get through games and seasons a lot quicker, each game is still about 10 minutes of playing time, plus replays.

they should make it the standard for all online games and HUT. No one wants to play long games online ( especially with the penalty sliders on actual time). Now if they shortened the seasons on franchise then you could get through multiple seasons. 82 games is too much for a video game season. We play games to play and not sim

I disagree. I would love to see options to play ranked games with 10 minute periods. I play hockey video games when it's too ****ing cold to play outside. Please don't speak for me Tgiordano.

I do. I ONLY play 20 minute periods. In fact I am pretty upset that the 20 minute periods are actually not an entire 20 minutes as the clock does go a bit faster.

3 minute periods are not even worth the loading time
