Didn't the old game list face-off's and turnovers as part of the stats ? That would help get a visual on whats going on... Passing scores affect turnovers? Yikes. Thats way harsh IMO. So if the logic fails for a completed pass from a d-man, it's a turnover? Jump on teamspeak for the explanation - too much to type. |

IMO, passing scores should affect alot of a teams offense. From the breakout pass to the simple pass, otherwise it would be a game of keep away where players just rag the puck until it is taken away from them by opposing players.
If a guy is a lousy passer, he wont make accurate passes and either turn the puck over or dump it out of a zone. If a guy is a lousy shooter, he wont score. If theres a team full of defensive neutral zone trap guys--well, that has been outlawed.
IMO, its good to have a balanced team, passing, shooting, defense and goaltending. As I am proving that defense and goaltending are valuable, outshooting opponenets on a consistant basis and getting a fair share of goals only to allow opponents more than I am scoring.

Agreed, the issue that we were having prior to today was passing rating was based solely on the (number of assists a players head/number of minutes he played). This is going to reward the guys who get the assists but penalize the guys who are defensive studs who don't get a lot of points. Prior to today there was only 1 check made to see what happens when a guy was passing: The players pass rating was measured against a defense or neutral skill of an opponent to get a -9 to +9 variation. A table was then consulted which has percentage chances of all of the following: pass 1 zone back pass same zone pass 1 zone up pass 2 zones up pass 3 zones up odd man break pass goes out of play missed pass - loose puck missed pass turnover The higher the -9 +9 number the better chance there was for advancing multiple zones and odd man breaks. Conversely, the lower number, the higher chance for turnovers and loose pucks. Now this has been broken into 2 parts: 1st part is does he complete it This now uses a passer's random neutral score if the neutral score is higher than the player's passing score. A table is consulted to see what happens. if completed, his passing rating is used to determine how far or back the pass goes. That's it in a nutshell. The good defense players now won't be penalized for not putting up huge offensive numbers. |
