Quick question, I have the game on 360.

My buddy created a goalie for Be A Pro and every time I try to create a forward or D it goes back to the pro he created but just for a different position.

Anyone know how I can delete this pro? I want to play BAP with a forward at some point.

wow you werene't kiddin. First loss in 8 games, got shut out by Anderson behind a brutal Sens team(injury riddled).


So anyone figure out a reasonable way to play the CPU?
I can beat them on the score-board and the games are good for the most part, but I cant touch them physically. My guys bounce off there's like it's Gionta vs Chara. My players fall down so easily!!
I've tinkered with the sliders and settings, but I still get dominated physically every game.

ps. I'd play strictly online if they'd let you tinker with the "Game Speed" setting, hate how slow the default setting is.

Also, the sim engine drives me a bit crazy...

First season, I wasn't trying to compete but started 26-10-6 and finished 22nd.

Second season, I made some big moves to become more competitive and had a monstrous start (something like 28-10-2) and finished 17th overall (which again, is BS as I previously stated).

Just started my 3rd season last night, going in with the following roster:

Hall (88) - RNH (88) - Yakupov (84)
Bartschi (85) - Staal (85) - Eberle (85)
MPS (80) - Dubinsky (84) - Callahan (83)
Eager (74) - Lander (76) - Aliu (78)

Petry (87) - Whitney (86)
Leddy (84) - Schultz (84)
Morissey (83) - Plante (78)

Bernier (83)
Bunz (81)

Guess what my record so far this season is?

5-4-1... so a worse start than prior years despite improving in goal (Dubnyk -> Bernier) and my young guys receiving a bump in their OV's.

wonder if an improved goalie affects the game results more than a better scoring lineup. The settings your team rolls with also affects results.

The goalies are unreal, but I love it. It makes the game much more interesting and challenging as well.
I think i'll try that... hopefully I improve. It reallllly changes the game when you dominate the play...

Well that ex-Flame Bartschi certainly isn't helping

I did improve my goalie though - Dubnyk was an 80, Bernier is an 83. My offense improved slightly as well, and the only place I downgraded was at D - last year I had 87, 86, 85, 84, 84, 80 and this year I have 87, 86, 84, 84, 82, 78. So over the D-corps I dropped a total of 5 and improved in goal by a total of 3 (5 if you count the backup).

I figured it out, made by be a pro and started playing in the memorial cup. I'm going to be drafted right after.

I'm in between Sven Baertschi and Ty Rattie with Portland, my guy is built like Claude Giroux.
