I noticed MacDonald's weird over-rating as well (and Lashoff to a lesser degree, at least he has some pedigree). There are a few other guys in the AHL with high 70s to 80 ratings -- Chad Wiseman (79?) and Dwight Helminen (77) come to mind. The only thing I can think of is that they were moved over from the Euro leagues (I know Helminen was overseas last season) and not re-rated.

If their Poise ratings are dropped from 80+ to the standard rookie/AHL rating of 70 or below, that should knock 3-4 points off of the overall. But MacDonald's numbers are just plain silly -- 95 for balance & checking, if I remember correctly...

Re: Under-Rated Players

In my opinion almost every goalie is under-rated. I think every starting NHL goalie should be an 80 at least. Then work form there.

Glad they bumped some stats with the roster update too....I enjoy using LA and Boston.

Boston was a team I won alot with in 08, not sure why but the team was just fast and Chara is a beast.

I'll agree about the shot ratings as the OP has stated.

I miss like in back of one of the NHL's on the genesis, it may have been 96 where guys who had big shots where feared.

McInnis big blast and most notably Sakic's wrist shot.

The next big move in this game is to make the stars the stars and the scrubs the scrubs and the grinders the grinders...then we will start to have a more complete game.

Jason Pominville! Has a rating of 55 for passing. Pretty brutal for a guy that had 53 assists last year.
