This is just like last year's dilemma between capping and containing, with one difference: it was more advantageous to cap because it allowed you to own a goal that was already capped.

This year, the only difference between the center goal and the side ones is the score. So I think that though we will see a lot more teams going for the side goals than last year, shooters will still outnumber non-shooters.
I agree. When I voted it was 2-roller 9-shooter

I expect the ratios to be the opposite if you do a post-ship poll.
