Prompt #2:

So ultimately I'd like to make a player that is a two way sniper that focuses on the transition game. Imagine a player that specializes in backchecking then creating a 3 on 2 situation where they end up being the trigger man. So based on that I think the most important stats for my player are Checking and Stickchecking, (in order to get the puck off of opposing players) along with Getting Open and Shooting Accuracy. Then some secondary attributes would be Acceleration and Defensive Read (to help with getting back fast enough to strip a puck off of a player and then make the right play defensively). This season specifically I'm focusing on my defensive game in order to help become a contributing player in the bottom 6, the offense will come later. That means I need to increase my Checking, Positioning, Stickchecking and Defensive Read. I'm not really interested in Hitting or Shot Blocking because I don't think laying big hits is important and I trust my goalies more than myself to block shots.
