Yep, everything is default (Seb said he disabled all the game engine settings before the beta release so they couldn't be changed).

The goal scoring drought continued through the season, by the way. No team averaged more than 1.6 Goals per game. Only one player scored 20+ goals. Leading point scorer had 64 points. There was a stretch through January where no team scored more than 3 goals in a game. There is the occassional 7-1 or 6-2 game, but I can count those on one hand since early October. Still about 90-95% of the scores are 1-0 (in S/O), 1-0, 2-0, or 2-1. Shots are about right (25-35 per game per team). Goalies are crazy, all but 3-4 have a GAA below 1.00.

The other leagues are okay. ECHL seems a little low to me, but the AHL had some scores of 8-6, 12-4, 9-4, 7-4, etc. during the year. Foreign leagues were okay and didn't see the great goal drop off after early October. I'm going to start another game today and see if it happens again.
