Sub injured goalie during game

mikelupu · 12-24-2016, 12:17 AM

Hi,

How do you sub an injured goalie during a game?

My starting goalie was injured during the game and when I tried to change him the game kept displaying a message that the "2nd Goalie is Injured". When I tried to remove the injured goalie from the backup place it returned a message to "Set the 2nd Goalie" (which cannot be a skater reasonably enough). The problem is that now I go back to the game because I have only one goalie available.

This happened twice to me. The first time I just had to close the game, this time I'm posting here

That's strange, there's actually a check to prevent new injuries to the remaining goalie when the other one is unavailable. Did the second goalie have a pre-existing injury before the game of some kind, or was he completely healthy?

Both goalies were fully healthy before the game.

The issue though is not that the second goalie got injured but once the first goalie got injured I cannot sub him out because of the different error messages I get.

The scenarios are the following:

* If I leave both goalies in I get a message that I have an injured goalie and need to remove him.
* If I remove him then I get a message that I need a second goalie.
* If I try to add a skater as a second goalie I get a message that a skater cannot be a goalie (which is reasonable)

Thanks,
Mike

Ah, I understand now. Definitely shouldn't be doing that, we'll check it out.
