How they play
Puck possession. Short passes and keep-away. Pretty when it works. When the computer plays the Poutine, that's what it does: the style sets how often it shoots, passes, cycles, forechecks, stretches the ice and hits. Same style: New York Noblemen, Finnish Fish, Czech Mates, Madison Squeakers, Danish Pastries, California Gold.
- Speed 4/5. Quick. Few teams catch them in open ice. 11 other teams have it.
- Hitting 2/5. On the light side in collisions. Hitting is weight in collisions: who flies and who stays up.
- Size 3/5. League average.
- Shooting is the same for every team. A Poutine slap shot is as hard as anybody's.
The 84 OVR is how sharp their computer players are: how fast they read the play, how true they pass, how clean their sticks are. It doesn't touch how hard anyone shoots. Above the league average, so against them the computer is quicker to punish mistakes.
