Regarding deflections, I've noticed personally that it seems a lot better since the last patch. Probably about 1-2 out of every 10 goals and nothing unrealistic visually. Maybe it's a slider issue. I dunno...

Played 2 online games, one HUT and one DC, and I was able to generate shots. I got 32 in the first game and 27 in the second one. Before the patch, I'd sometimes struggle to get 10. Small sample size, but it feels much better, and I was generating shot totals like that in beta.

I just checked. Looks like more generic customs, no classic NHL.

I think the patch has also fixed a little bit of offline framerate drop that I'd very occasionally see on PS4 when skating through the neutral zone. The human goalie certainly seems to have improved.

What I'm finding slightly concerning is that I'm 60 odd games in to a 7 minute period, not simmed a single game, season and I've been averaging between 3 and 4 powerplays per game which is a nice realistic amount.

After playing three games post patch and tuner in this same season with the same settings, that has dropped to one and upping the CPU pen frequency a few notches had no impact. Perhaps a streaky coincidence, these low pen games do happen, but if it continues, might max out the sliders just to make sure. In the third game, even relatively consistent puck movement to draw pens was attempted but the AI wasn't having any of it.
