OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Historical Simming and Comparing/Contrasting to RL

I thought this would be a good thread to have for those who are tweaking the scoring for the NHL and Historical Simming to see how the progress is going both for "random" years and modern day. This may change reflective upon the tweaked scoring coming in the new update.

Note: I do not control any of these teams. RL Stats come from Hockey-Reference.com. Everything will be on "default" settings, nothing edited or changed.

1962 NHL
Real Life: Minimum TG was 194. Highest were 221 and 225. 6 Players had 30+ Goals. 9 Players had 40+ Assists. 4 Players had 70+ Points. Gordie Howe led with 38 G/48 A for 86 P. Top GAA were 2.46, 2.47, and 2.49. SO were 5.

Simming
- TOR led with 163 Goals. Range was 132-163. Andy Bathgate and Dave Keon led with 29 Goals. Johnny Bucyk led with 31 A. Andy Bathgate led with 55 Points.

Glenn Hall had a 1.91 GAA and Johnny Bower had a 1.95 GAA. It's clear that the Goalies were way overpowered here (Top 4 were at 2.18 GAA or under).

1983 NHL
Real Life: Top TG range seems to be 335-360 (Edmonton was 446). 8 Players had 50+ Goals. 5 Players had 70+ Assists. 8 Players had 111+ Points. Top GAA were 2.66, 2.84, and 2.91. Top Save % was .903.

Simming
- DET led with 224 G and NYI followed with 220. Mike Bossy led with 44 G. Bryan Trottier led with 52 A and Steve Yzerman had 50 A. Mike Bossy led with 77 P and Rick Middleton was 2nd with 76.

Again, the issue appeared to be overpowered goalies (not sure if that's a carryover from modern day?). Grant Fuhr led with a 1.98 GAA and the top 4 goalies were all at 2.09 or under. Markus Mattsson led with a .927 Save % followed by Fuhr at .925.

I'll try to add some other years later but it seems currently that the goalies (and their attributes? The league settings?) are simply way, way too overpowered.
