What kind of stats are you seeing with these? It's always been tough to tune the game for more than 8-10 minute periods because shot totals are so high but I would love to be able to play on 20 minute periods or close to it.

Re: 16 minute periods, all star/hardcore

shots total are still below 40 which is nice... the issue is with goals. I usually would always have 4-6 goals. I still miss a 5:1 or 2:1 game; I reduced to 15 minutes in the meantime. I'd like to have better goalies, and back hand passes are far too accurate
