Tactics - player roles (even strength vs special teams)

DFyvie · 10-02-2018, 02:05 AM

So as I'm coming to grips with the new tactics system (which I think is really great so far). Am I to understand that players have one role and for both even-strength and special teams? Is there no way to change a player's role for the powerplay only?

This.

That's an oversight, surely?

Waiting for an answer to this before even trying to continue with the game. It's great to have Hagelin hanging around the blueline, waiting for a quick break and not caring about defending at all when it's 5v5. Not sure if that's a good thing when he's on penalty kill...
