They can't ever get any odd man rushes because the D ends up catching up with my forward before I can even get a shot or pass off.
And what's with only an 85 for O?? That's bottom 10 in the league, even Edmonton's ranked better than that! You can tell the game's made in Vancouver. Just started a franchise mode with the Flames, I think Unky Darryl's gonna be busy lightin up the phones..

I find the best way to play with friends is just like they're aimed to play in real life. Defense first. They aren't going to outrun or outskill the opposition. So you're going to have to be playing a patient game and work on not giving the other team solid chances, while making use of the puck possession when your in the attack zone. Really look to work around the zone and try to open up the slot if you can, otherwise the point may be open up and you can create some good rebound chances, deflections, or just flat out screen goals.
Basically, you have to play smart and systematic with them. It works since I'm in the top 100.
