Constantly Penalties
Hey guys,
Wondering if you can help me out. Started a new season as the Canucks, and I am trying play a fast, physical game tactics wise which was fine for preseason - it worked rather well actually. Then the first few games of the real season I was doing well but taking almost 15 minutes of penalties a game, with almost guaranteed one player taking a total of 10 minutes or more. I then re-adjusted to play quick but more balanced game physically and reset individual tactics as well to make sure those that weren't so good at checking and hitting weren't doing so as often and weren't pressuring too much either. However I am still taking constant penalties and again usually with one player at 10 minutes a game. Also, usually within the first 2 minutes I have someone sitting in the box happened 3 straight games in a row. Any help on being able to just tweak a team to limit their penalties - I understand you can't really, but I need a way to keep my guys out the box. Cheers |

Does your players have a bad temperament rating?

Player roles can also increase the tendency to take penalties, particularly those in the enforcer and grinder categories. If you have a lot of guys like that, you may want to change some of them into other roles.

Temperament wise its kind of even down the middle usually around the 10 mark with one or two higher ones that I make sure aren't playing too aggressive or I have them set up as grinder knowing that they may take a penalty, but I don't mind that depending on how the game is going, hoping it can change the momentum (they should add a momentum bar in the UI).
I feel like I am managing it correctly, with keeping those with high temp playing with mild aggression, and not as physical roles, but it is still constant. I.E playing against Minnesota being 3-0 up then in the last 10 minutes I take a 5 minute for illegal check to the head - go down to 3-1. Then as soon as they come back on the ice I take double penalties and lose in OT - if this happened like once or twice that's fine. But its every third game I end up loosing due to All whilst the other team maybe have 2 penalties a game, maybe or if they do have a penalty they score shorthanded. It's insanely infuriating to play when I basically have someone in the box for more than half the game. It is taking a lot of the enjoyment out of something that should be a challenge but not having the game stacked against you when you're up. I also know I am the Canucks and we don't have the best D in the game and understand that, that may be an issue. But I can't think of it truly crippling the gameplay |
