If I win 7-0 and Im on the ice the entire time, why would I only get a plus 3? this makes zero sense.

Did you have any power play goals?

Many people ask me why I sign off 'til we meet again.' It's because goodbye is so final.

Powerplay goals do not count towards your +/-

If you/they are shorthanded and score, that goes to your +/-

actually it makes perfect sense, like they've said above, only even strength and shorthanded goals add to +/- stat, powerplay goals do not count. so if you were on the ice the entire time(which is what makes no sense)in a 7-0 route, than your team scored 4 ppgs

If it's not in the game, don't put it in the game

you can set BAP to no line changes scojo which would mean he can be on the ice the whole game

that doesn't change my comment though, why would you want to be on the ice the whole time. just difference of opinion i geuss, i play for realism, don't even call for line changes during bap, just go out when they put me out, like in real hockey, just played the sport to long to want it any other way i geuss and i don't understand people forsaking the realism

If it's not in the game, don't put it in the game

Sorry I should've added that I play OTP.

I didn't know it was only even strength that counted I thought it was all goals. It seems tough to get a decent +/- in OTP.
