One major issue people in the 6s community have seemed to complain about a lot this year is the amount of missed one timers, whether it be whiffs, flops or catching it and wristing it instead of slapping it. EA replied to someone's Twitter asking for videos of this happening. If anyone has some please post it here or reply to the tweet posted below. If not try to remember to start recording them in your games and hopefully we can work with EA to get them fixed. Thanks https://twitter.com/easportsnhl/status/829420850101178368
Randomly whiffing on regular slap shots in all locations on the ice should be a pretty glaring red flag as well. "OK coming hard around behind the net stay wide aaaaand nevermind I fanned for no reason again."
I rarely whiff maybe I'm just lucky but have seen several teammates whiff on completely easy and slow passes.
i miss from time to time but it's usually when receiving a pass while drifting backwards to get into position or waiting too soon/late. It's all about timing in those situations. I think user error should play a part in sports games or we could all just play on rails and allow the AI to play for us. I agree shit like puck pickups/loose pucks need to be addressed going forward but not every EASHL player should be ripping ovie one T's just by pressing up anytime after the pass is released.
Probably has more to do with builds, fatigue and just not setting it up clean. Snipers do not whiff one timers often at all. If you're using something like grinder, you should be fanning on shots and missing more. If you've just sprinted end to end 3 times, you should not be able to shoot the same way you would if you were just starting a period.
I'm a goalie but I do play a lot of versus and I find myself missing on one timers when I am trying to shoot too early, before the puck even reaches my guy. Maybe this is the problem maybe it is not. I know in all the prior NHL games nobody including myself ever had this problem.
"Someone's twitter account." I'd like to know who runs that account so I can properly thank them for publicly praising me.
