If everyone has Checking as a weakness, no one has Checking as a weakness tbh.

I think there might even be some more fundamental problems surrounding the usage of Phy in the lines that would really show people the benefit of physical play. Hell, Crosby has 65ish CK with 40 FG in the NHL sims.

Physical players still go checking, not sure what you're talking about.

People that pick checking for a weakness are looking to score points, can you blame them? Also a less chance of getting penalties, so you're on the ice more. Strength/Defense is way better in that regard and offers secondary attributes to assist with scoring points.

There's no TA/GA in this sim version so if you want to win the Dar, you don't take checking as a weakness.

I have some random idea that's a suggestion but i'm not taking it too seriously. Why not just make min salaries based on a player's sim production? So players like McZ who spam themselves a lot and Minny can have their top players making bank.

But really regulate some ice time stuff on forwards. I went back and checked since I remembered that Armia double shifted himself at times but realized it was NOWHERE near what people are doing now. It's ridic, he had a 88 point season and plays significantly less minutes than what i've been seeing.

Armia S11 88 pnt season Avg is 24.1 TOI
O'Callahan S19 63 pnt season 27.8 TOI
Hall S20 67 pnt season Avg is 21.7 TOI
Kane S29 67 pnt season Avg is 23 TOI

McZ S30 69 pnt season Avg is 28.8 TOI
Banananov S30 67 pnt season Avg is 28.1 TOI


Kian Hamilton has 28.4 TOI this season, Mc-- Like legit I go through the toi list and all I see are a bunch of defencemen with Minny/Manhattan forwards.
