How to Fix FHM8: Every Voice Matters

Potential sim issues that we don't have nearly enough data on aside, I honestly like this idea. The big issue with goalies has always been that it doesn't feel like they matter, and I would gladly support widening the TPE scale to make low-TPE goalies worse and high-TPE goalies better, so that there's actually value in max earning as a goalie.

J base 16 Stamina, but once you go up to the SHL it drops to 5.
Seems fair

Have there been complaints about the sim? I haven’t really heard anything negative so far. Other than I guess so far FHM8 gives as much of a fuck about goalie TPE as FHM6 did, which was eel.

I don’t see the need for a fix. The main reason we switched is parity and there’s an argument that 80% of the league is competitive right now, something that hasn’t happened since I’ve been on the site. I know some high TPE teams are frustrated because they’re not steamrolling the league but wasn’t that the point of the engine switch in the first place? 
Goalie changes could be good though just so they matter, but attribute caps, archetypes, and especially any return to sim testing imo isn’t needed, let’s at least get a season under our belts and see how it shakes out.

My goalie is doing well (knock on wood), so don't change anything for goalies until he starts doing bad.

The question of goalie attributes is a long running issue with FHM, unfortunately every bit as much with v8 as with v6. If you're running a historical franchise, there's very little point in giving away assets to acquire a 'marquee' goalie. Especially since many average guys can actually outperform an elite guy. Sadly, it's just the state of the game right now.

There's been a lot of suggestions/complaints in this regard over on the OOTP site, and the hope is the devs will finally address this in v9.

Other than that, if as the thread title says: "Every Voice Matters," then this voice joins the chorus saying it's much too early to contemplate complex surgery. Please give it some time to play out so we have a sufficient sample size of empirical data, upon which to base any  decisions.

But our backup goalie won two games, everything is fine. I mean goalies still don't matter....

Bit salted eh? I am nowhere close to saying this place is broken. But I figured this thread would be a solid opportunity to get a thought out of my head and see what the rest of the community thinks about traits and build archetypes that are in the game.
