So with no hockey and my two year old still wanting to watch hockey every night, I've been simming the games in NHL 20. Holy cow, the game was NOT meant to sim 20 minute periods though - the stats are insane.
90+ shots per team? I mean the Leafs had a two-goal lead and blew it in 10 seconds, so the simulation isn't all bad...
I adjusted gameplay sliders for the Oilers/Islanders game, to make the puck more 'loose' and it's better but still not quite there. McDavid and Draisaitl work to pick up what should be everyday passes, and the d-men absolutely STRUGGLE on point-to-point passing.
Jameson loves watching it, but I'd still like to tweak it more to get more realistic results and stats. We're watching the Leafs/Boston game sim right now and it's still way too shot heavy.
