Let me start by saying this is not a complaint, but a question so i can better understand. I've played FHM since FHM4 and it seems that goalies are wildly inconsistent and I can not figure out what I should look for in a goalie. In one season, my 4 star starter will be horrible and the two star backup will be top 5 in vezina voting. The very next year though, either they're both terrible, or the 4 star is back.

I know that it's realistic for good goalies to have bad years and "less good" goalies can break out. I'm fine with that, but it seems pretty much random. I decided to create a goalie with a goalie rating of 950, and sim 20 years. He was a subpar goalie with a few good years and it seems he was a backup to someone else most years, playing 30-40 games.

Which attributes matter for goalies? Does height have any influence? Mental toughness? Etc.

Thanks
