Wayne Gretzky is 87 overall!\u00a0 But what does that mean?<\/p>\n
The default overall calculation that the game uses for Forwards and Defensemen<\/b> is as follows. \u00a0Take the attributes values (0-6) and multiply them by the following factors:<\/p>\n
Agility x 2
\nSpeed x 3
\nOffensive Awareness x 3
\nDefensive Awareness x 2
\nShot Power x 1
\nChecking x 2
\nStickhandling x 3
\nShot Accuracy x 2
\nEndurance x 1
\nPassing x 1<\/p>\n
Add all of those numbers together to get the \u201coverall\u201d number.<\/p>\n
There are two caveats:<\/p>\n
So for Wayne Gretzky, his calculation would be as follows.<\/p>\n
Agility: 6 x 2 = 12
\nSpeed: 4 x 3 = 12
\nOffensive Awareness: 5 x 3 = 15
\nDefensive Awareness 4 x 2 = 8
\nShot Power: 2 x 1 = 2
\nChecking: 2 x 2 = 4
\nStickhandling: 6 x 3 = 18
\nShot Accuracy: 2 x 2 = 4
\nEndurance: 6 x 1 = 6
\nPassing: 6 x 1 = 6<\/p>\n
12+12+15+8+2+4+18+6+6 = 87!<\/p>\n
For Goalies<\/b><\/p>\n
Agility x 4.5 (round down)
\nDefensive Awareness x 4.5 (round down)
\nPuck Control x 4.5 (round down)
\nStick Right x 1
\nStick Left x 1
\nGlove Right x 1
\nGlove Left x 1<\/p>\n
The same two caveats apply.<\/p>\n
Note that the game has given the most importance to speed, offensive awareness and stickhandling for both forwards and defensemen by weighing those attributes by 3, but this is not likely what you value most in a player. In the attributes section, you’ll see that shot power is also equally important, while attributes like checking, awareness, and endurance are not.<\/p>\n
