I guess Fleury ain't a top 10 goalie anymore.... how many shut outs did he have last season? LOL

And guys with slightly better stats and slightly lower stats will play the same, regardless if they are 20/30 goal scorers or Selke finalists every year in real life. Like I touched on earlier in my OP, they should look to Eastside Hockey Manager's ability to set individual line tactics as well as personal tactics for each and every player. This way, it's not just a crap shoot to see any player with a high ahoy rating reach 30/40 goals, its also about which players are TOLD to shoot more, play less defense, be more patient, etc. It's the next logical step, 'okay we have the ratings, but what do we do with them?'

EA had a shooting/passing bias years ago on PS2 (I think), but like many good features it seems to have been removed (often to be re-introduced years later as a "brand new" feature).

I've brainstormed what Player Tendencies could be here.
