    so far everyone has beat me, I am turning the champions into losers :roll:

    Maybe someday I will get a win. This goalie does let some easy shots go by but will stop some very good shots :?

    1. Yes.. big time. Haven't had one scored on me in 3 games and 148 shots against me.

    2. Yes.. I have tried a couple of times, but can't even get set up well with the new sliders. Some old habit die hard. Not that I would try every time, but I did like to try here and there as opportunity allowed. It just doesn't happen.

    3. Can't answer that one.

    1. Yes. Although they are still very easy to score if you are given the opportunity (which I seem to be offering up at an alarming rate so far :evil: )

    2. Yes, old habits die hard (myself included). Even though they are very simple to defend now, we still take them on breakaways or defensive miscues. Because those are really the only times you'll see them scored, everyone seems to be fine with that (since it was their own fault for having a porous defense).

    1.) I wasen't in season two, but from what I remember from season one.. yes they have gone down a fair bit.

    2.) Yes, I think that everyone that knows how to do the swoop goal will always try and use it if they're given the chance (breakaway or bad defence). I still try it a fair bit but it doesen't work nearly as well as it did with the default sliders so I have to try and be creative. I do see alot more people trying to actually setup goals though and get some one-timers which is a nice change from season one.
