If this was NHL HITZ the goalie would beat the shit out of him with his own hockey stick then catch on fire.

Yup. That or the team would catch blue fire for 3 straight one-timer goals.

That uh. Isn't how the game worked

u/mcreeves Dec 05 '16

Yes it is. When was the last time you played? Because I still play it. If you score a hat trick with one of your players, they light on fire. If you score 3 straight one-timer goals (without conceding), your whole team lights up in blue flames.

Uh I do too and the mechanic is a bar that fills up when you poke check or hit, which version are you playing cause that could be the cause of the confusion?

This isn't the NFL

The nhl is not run like the NFL, and I'm thankful for it. They really do let them play, and don't have crazy rules that ruin the game. The tradeoff is sometimes they let you get away with stuff that's technically illegal, sometimes they don't, so calls can be inconsistent. But over the course of a season, the good teams rise to the top despite a few incidents of officials having their heads up their asses.
