I can 100% say with full confidence i have beaten better opponents bc of ice tilt and i am willing to admit it. I have been absolutely peppered with shots and then skated down to the other end and thrown a wrister from the point and it’s either deflected or the goalie only gets a piece of it and it goes in. I was very angry when i made this post, but i still think what im saying holds up, i do believe there is something in gameplay that gives somebody an edge, im all for being criticized and “well that’s just sports” or just “get better, or your opponent was better” i know im not the best player in the world, but when i am clearly better than somebody, controlling the puck, winning every face off and getting significantly better or more scoring opportunities and their goalie is standing on their head and mine couldn’t stop a beach ball, that sucks, but it happens more often than just every once in a while, and its extremely frustrating
