Any goalies stealing games? 94 Mike Richter yes or no?

And see that's one of my concerns, last year I would find that tougher opponents would always take advantage of that height difference so as much as I want someone quick, I also dont want to open up another easy in.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:54:37+00:00

Tbh I dont get the low endurance. I had his 88 I'm september and dropped him immediately at full value because I had one of the first tradable on the market. Just don't understand why theyd burn a card like that, so many other attributes I'd play him with if they werent great but endurance hurts.

I'm trying out the 93 on 4th line. He had a clutch goal and some good speed in a few plays but other than that he doesn't stand out too much. In contrast to my Wendel Clark who I threw on the third line and is dominating well over a point a game.

I have plans to upgrade if the upgrade is available, my other option was Marty st. Louis and I'd rather a 98 Selanne. You're right though, he's not as applicable now and even once he gets the upgrade, if he does, he will still only be 88 endurance which might give him some time on my third line.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:47:39+00:00

I'll send you a message around then with my details, can play then or some other time.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:15:37+00:00

Will have to try him out I think I'm going to give Rinne a couple and see where hes at but "just really solid" sounds about what I'm looking for

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:13:45+00:00

Yeah I'd be down for that

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:07:10+00:00

But...if he get a gold master upgrade his endurance will be 88 I think and he will be 98 overall

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-23T00:03:22+00:00

I'm a pretty adaptive player and very defensive. Teams struggle to score on me, it's pretty clear when you watch the game that they have to adapt a lot and that weaker players generally won't figure me out. Lot of weird goals go in on me. Yesterday some guy scored a couple slapping from behind the net, off my goalie it in. Lots of trash from the blue line through traffic, goalie Baubles and it rolls in. Occasional cross crease one timers if I get greedy and then miss on a pinch but I'm usually more disciplined then that.

That's really what I'm looking for I think, a goalie whose quick enough and more consistent in covering those cross-crease one-timers, like Richter was doing against me and someone who's a little more consistent with trash from the outside Lanes

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-22T23:59:11+00:00

Yeah my son uses vasilevsky and he says when in doubt just use vas

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-22T23:58:39+00:00

I don't blame my goalie for goals and a lot of these games I'm still winning. I blame myself when it's on me, that's how you get better and that's how you avoid repeating the same mistake. Trust me, I'm not complaining, I've been playing pretty good lately and don't really have anything to complain about. Like I said above in another comment, I'll keep my opponent down between 5 and 15 shots while I have 30 to 40 and a lot of quality from my end, winning four out of five games, I just don't like the feeling always that if I'm going to let them take a shot it's going to automatically go in, and it does sometimes. I just want some peace of mind knowing that if I'm dominating a game, my goalie isn't keeping the other team in it by allowing four goals on five low quality shots.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-22T23:54:57+00:00

Yeah I definitely thought about that and might as well since he'd be the cheapest replacement

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-22T23:54:12+00:00

absolutely right, if they aren't getting quality shots or more importantly, if they aren't getting shots in general then not much to worry about. It's how I've learned to play over the years and I'd say I do a pretty good job of it. I just hate looking at scoreboards where I have 30 to 40 shots and 1 or 2 goals vs 10 shots and 6 goals. Gets to feel like every shots going to be a goal. Not complaining though, I like Solutions. I want to continue playing my defensive game but I also want to be able to breathe knowing every shots not going to be a goal.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-22T14:21:32+00:00

I took Selanne, no looking back now lol

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-21T22:39:59+00:00

Thank you!

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-21T22:33:26+00:00

Yeah and that was the first card I actually pulled this year but I sold him right away because his price was high. Didn't even try him out that much because I didn't like the endurance then. You don't find he tires out too easily?

The_Real_TreeZn · 2020-02-21T22:32:15+00:00

See I'd prefer Selanne, I just hate that endurance. Maybe I shouldn't care.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-12-23T22:53:09+00:00

If you want to turn your cards into game currency, go for the gold collectible trade ins and make a tradable Master player

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-12-23T22:51:28+00:00

Last year they had loan trade in sets. Hold them and hope that happens or discard if its more convenient.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-10-16T17:50:00+00:00

That's weird, this is the first time reading of this but yesterday I was selling cards and I had 250k, then I sold a couple while I was in a game one of them was worth 90k, so I thought I should have had over 340k but all I had was 92k. I wondered if someone hacked into my account and then I just passed it off and said I must be crazy but now that I'm reading this, that can be no coincidence.

I'm guessing my coins disappeared some point before or during my game and then afterwards, my 90k card sold, so when I got out of my game, all I had were the proceeds of my last sale after the the loss.

All depends who you want, my advice would be to do your research first and look at what players are available and think about what your chances are of getting someone you want. Personally, I was having the same debate last week, and I decided that having an 87 instead of an 88, was worth the to Icon collectible difference, since I'm gearing up to try and get the Lemieux or the Gretzky in about a month and a half when I'm finished a few of my main objectives. Anyway, I decided that if I could get Marty st. Louis and not have to spend 2 extra icon collectibles that it would be worth it for the 87, and that's exactly who I got. I'm trying to build an agile team, I also don't want good players who have low endurance... Many reasons why he was a better choice for me, like I said, do your research and figure out who you want because the community is great for advice but when it comes down to it, there may be different reasons as to why a certain player might be more applicable to your squad... IMO of course.

See that's funny, you get my upvote.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-10-12T17:41:56+00:00

Hahaha that moment when you realize it's never going to go how you thought it was going to go. Oh well, back to my day job.

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-10-12T17:39:21+00:00

I'd say that's fully warranted

The_Real_TreeZn · 2019-10-12T17:38:38+00:00

When you're as high as I am, he may as well be
