How they play
The trap. They clog the middle and wait for you to make a mistake. Patience is their whole personality. When the computer plays the Mules, that's what it does: the style sets how often it shoots, passes, cycles, forechecks, stretches the ice and hits. Same style: Toronto Raccoons, Chinese Wall, Buffalo Lake Effect, Colorado Yetis, Swiss Cheese, Slovak Slowpokes.
- Speed 3/5. League average. 16 other teams have it.
- Hitting 3/5. League average. Hitting is weight in collisions: who flies and who stays up.
- Size 5/5. Huge. The biggest players in the league.
- Shooting is the same for every team. A Mules slap shot is as hard as anybody's.
The 88 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.
