    Yeah, I agree that the way NHL 18 lobbies are setup now (no way to join mid game), restarts would make goalie pulls annoying and time consuming. You can join mid game in games like Overwatch tho, so it is possible right now on PS4

    The difference is with NHL compared to something like Overwatch or COD is that while you can rejoin midmatch in those games, they dont replace the player like NHL does. Just imagine if a player lagged out in a LG game and it was just 5 on 4 until that player joined back?

    We did a season with NHL rosters which meant there were line changes.

    I got to be Roberto Luongo on Vancouver but the guy playing as Shane O'Brien wasn't thrilled.
