Toughness has never had the impact that it does now. For the love of God, how many times can it be stated that there have been no changes to toughness or intimidation for the past 3 seasons. A-haaaa, so you're saying there was a change? ? Just kidding....Whatever...something is bonkers though....not just for my team!!! Look at yesterday's boxscores...7 of the 11 games were ties...cmon Glenn, you have got to admit, at the very least, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE....riddle me this: Why are the Defensive Ratings on our forwards ramped up this season ?

I am not sure they are. I can run a query to give me an average score for al forwards and compare it to similar runs for previous years.
In regards to number of ties in a given night I am not sure if you are serious or not as this is a function of probability that is largely based on the competitive balance between the two teams playing in any given game or series of games.
Also, please refrain from prefacing your questions with "riddle me this". That was the schtick of a previous owner.

Well, RUN that query.

I shall but even a more telling query would be if goals are up or down this year compared to years past. It seems to me that scoring is up but I will need to run the query to prove that.

Phil = new Sal Chris = new Owen So....Owen was truly a whiner, at least towards the end and he did quit the league at least once...so I can see the Suffolk owner comparison. Now Sal....Sal was best known for being a cheater, so am I to take it that you feel the same about me Mike ? And...who shall we call YOU, young Michael? Maybe we just have to stick with 'Canadian Hockey enthusiast who after 4-5 years, still can't build a team'...or 'Mike' for short. That sound about right? FWW, I still wish we had BOTH Owen and Sal in the league, minus the cheating of course. Sal was a worthy adversary and all-around target and Owen...well...Owen, tried....hard. I guess. Cheers, and good.... Hockey.

I hope Owen doesn't contract Ebola. Seriously.

I don't think Mike has been here for 4 years, definitely not 5 years. Pretty sure he showed up after I did.
On topic, I don't toy with the percentages in my lineup page. I think sometimes toughness can bite you in the ass putting you in the box for half a game against a great team where you wind up only getting 7 shots, and sometimes it can give you that little edge where you beat better teams that you shouldn't have a chance in similar to my wins over Baltimore and Cornwall this year.
The underperforming teams will go on a run soon and then everything will be back to normal.

What is considered "up big in game?" I had it set at 100% and was up by 3+ goals for almost 2 full periods and my 4th line saw 2 minutes in the entire game. Even crunch time - up was set at 50%.

I will have to check to be sure but I believe it is being up by 3 or more goalis in the 3rd, 4 or more goals in the 2nd or 5 or more goals in the first. Crunch time did not play a factor at all in this game as that is being up or down by 1 or 2 (can't recll exactly how i defined it) late in the game. Most times your 4th line will be using the competive box which means it doesn't meet one of the creteria above. What was your setting for that?

Query's....Were they run? Results? Details? Defensive average composite for forwards is up by 3 points. It was 20 last year and it is 23 this year.
