I know experience is probably minor in it's effect anyway and I get why main goalie stats start lower (seeing as they have fewer things to update) but why should experience also start lower? We can't add points to it on our own anyway, it has no update scale, so why put goalies effectively 1 season (since the minimum earned per season is 5) behind skaters?
Like I said, I don't think it really does much anyway, but I don't see a reason to put goalies at this slight disadvantage. They come into the league at the same time as skaters and play the same games as skaters but are doomed to be at least 5 under them in experience forever for no reason. Should just start it at 40 like everyone else. It's also easily as hell to slap in because you just need to add 5 to all goalie experience, thus simulating that they started at 40 instead of 35.
Anyway, this has been my more or less pointless suggestion for the day. Was just thinking about it while I updated.
