Turco stood on his head! Penalty trouble prevented Dallas from getting anything going offensively. If not for Turco, this one is a blow-out. Had so many chances, but couldnt beat him. Only goal i managed was a point shot, rebound and jammed it in.

Hawks top line were animals, had a heck of a time trying to contain them. Finally got some goals on the PP, bout time!

Ok I know that this has nothing to do with the sliders but is just me or are these scenarios happening WAY too much:
1) CPU gets EVERY SINGLE REBOUND. I'm on a powerplay and I take a point shot and get a rebound. My player is standing directly infront of it with no one around him. Then a guy from the penalty kill just skates in and takes it no problem...... this is starting to tick me off quite a bit.
2) If there is a loose puck along the boards and I go to retrieve it, my player "bobbles" the puck on his stick for like 5 seconds and never gets control. Then the computer once again, skates in a easily and effortlessly grabs the puck....
Maybe the first one has to do with the agression slider or something but is there anyway to change the sliders so these happen less often because seriously no NHL teams gets every single rebound whether its powerplay or not because I just can't get any.

First post for me on this website :-) I just wanted to first off thank all of you guys for an awesome job with these sliders. I was pretty discouraged once my all-start settings got ruined by the new patch, but now im playing with these superstar settings and i am quite content to say the least.
I would just like however to make one comment about the goalie reaction settings. I started off with 5/1 settings and played 3 games with them. ! won 3-0 4-3 and lost 4-2. I then noticed you had the sliders at 4/1 which i tried BUT since then i lost 2 games 7-3 and 6-1 and both times my goalie played like complete crap. I find at setting 4 my goalie is too weak, any comments ??

I wouldn't be surprised if we end up back at 5/1 in the end. We started off low due to the fact we lowered the shot accuracy slider by quite a bit. I'm not so sure I like all the accuracy sliders at 1 either. Haven't played much the past few days - traded in my vehicle

I might end up posting 2 sets of accuracy sliders - one for those who like manual shot aim and one for those who prefer auto aim.

In response to the changes made to shot accuracy...ect In my experience with these last night, I played 3 games. I don't have time to post the results but I can tell you i enjoyed them to a certain extent. I liked the low scoring defensive games. However i found it very difficult to score on the cpu even with the cpu reaction time set at 1. I'm attributing that to the shot accuracy being so low. I noticed a lot of shots going wide, and a dramatic difference in blocked shots than i've seen in the past which shows definate realism. So im caught in a rough spot here. I'd like to see the off the mark shots and the blocked shots continue but even with great offensive teams i just found it difficult to put the puck in the net. I'm using the most recent sliders posted i made a few minor changes like penalty time scaling, and authentic post whistle, so basically nothing that affects what i stated above. Any tips would be appreciated.

I tried the game using the 1/1 settings for the shooting and it just doesnt work. The best results I have gotten is from having them at 3/3 4/4 and having the goaltending sliders at 5/1.
