@KidShowtime18670 XP on every comment you post trying to defend these unrealistic looking sequences and still clearly missing the big picture?
You're the only one (or one of the very few) who believes it's fun and realistic to skate and pass through people and to get rewarded offensively for playing in the most basic and dumb, straightforward way possible. Everyone else seems to agree that we'd like an actual HOCKEY videogame, with balance and basic defensive tools that actually work.
I have full confidence in EA that they'll patch this game into something that makes sense. Those who like this crap so much, should probably go rack up the wins forcing passes and hustling in straight line and enjoy it while it lasts instead of wasting time here. Most likely, soon theyll have to go back to 3s Eliminator where the experience they're after belongs.

Luckily for me, I don't put too much value in how many 'Xp' my posts get. You have to understand most people (not all) come here to cope and rage after something in the game doesn't go their way. When these people post gifs/videos showing things playing out that don't exactly match up with the story they're telling, I'm gonna call it out. People don't like it. Aw well. That's too bad. I'll continue having fun, finding small successes here and there and sharing my knowledge here with those who are willing to listen.
I understand people don't like it but it is what it is.

I don't think this at all and the defensive tools do work, if you use them correctly 😉

The defender in this clip was hustling in a straight line mashing poke check. They knocked the puck loose, but obviously they simply expected to obtain possession, forgetting the puck retains its trajectory. It was a bad defensive play. End of story.
