Why? Because on rebounds and passes from your goalie, he'll freeze your AI up and leave them staring at the puck. In fact, if you try to make a pass with your goalie, the puck will be invisible to your AI-controlled players for about one to two seconds. Think about this when the slot is crowded. An experienced opponent will wait like a hyena, about two skater lengths away from your goalie, and steal the puck easy as that! So try to take controll over a player in the slot on rebounds and don't skate away from the puck when the goalie let's go off it.
If you think about it, any situation where the goalie goes for a pass is a 1 on 1 battle for the puck the first 2 seconds, unless you got more human controlled players on your team, in the slot, than your opponent.
Of course, when you're attacking, Mr. Freeze can be your best friend.

So what you're saying is to not pass while you are the goalie? I haven't had this yet. On an unrelated note, could make a guide for shots? Like when to shoot from where and with what shot?
No, I'm saying you should be very careful with the passes when you got opponents just outside the crease.
I will try to make a shot guide, when I get the time.
