Redirects in front of the net for goals?

[bzehrt24]

I've played about 30-35 games so far and seen about 5 or 6 redirects for goals. Since I play at a relatively fast game speed with high shot power, this got me wondering if maybe lowering these things would cause more redirects since the puck would be traveling slower and allowing more time for the CPU to try and redirect.

However, it could just be the same as it is now, only the animation will be slower.

Is anyone getting a lot of tipped-in goals?

I agree that it feels rare. I get a lot of sweet one timers in traffic and more than a few deflections off skates (both attacker and defender skates) resulting in goals, but yes, straight on deflections in front of the net feel rare.

i've only played 14 games in my BaGM and Bertuzzi himself has 5 deflection goals...he would have had 6 but one was waved off due to him "kicking" it in (although there was no kicking animation, but that's what the announcer said)...

anyway, i have game speed set to 3 if that helps you at all.

Thanks for the feedback, maybe someone will make some big discovery and find out if/how it's possible to achieve more.

I've also noticed that deflection goals seem very rare compared to both NHL 11 and NHL 10.

Aim the shot at a player in front of the net for more redirects. I have at least one every couple of games.

Play as a BaP goalie......

You`ll see more crazy deflections than you`ll care to.
That`s when you`re not getting gooned every 2 minutes.

Yeah, in my limited offline goalie experience, deflections kill me. I'm OK on most shots and even screens/traffic, but if they get a piece of it... red light. That being said, it is nice to see them shoot more. If I had the time I would do a goalie BAP starting in the CHL.

As for regular offline play, if you want to see more deflections, shoot more wristers from the point. The big slappers are hard to handle, as they should be.
