You can easily do a Michigan, that rarely happens in a game, but you can't flip the puck out ,something that happens all the time ,and people wonder why this series is heading in the wrong direction
The game had a good eye for a little bit on direction but when putting pen to paper it didn't meet the walk they talked.
Now it became a complete gimmick of arcade mentality and the simulation of real hockey is no more.
- Treatmentworke662 years agoSeasoned Ace@BIGRlTCHY They nerfed the puck flip ,so the pressure system would work as intended so the defensive team would be at a major disadvantage while the offense has basically none , where it should actually be the other way around

I noticed this myself. Seems Defense and goaltending always get the short end of the stick when it comes to stick to puck physics but lets add advantage to hip checks. I'm saying this as EASHL Enforcer D-man who is a big hitter. Hip checks were more consistent back in the day and were mostly done by the boards as open ice is legal but had to be above the opponents knees to prevent clipping. My cousin Terry who played in the BCHL/WHL was known for this during his time in Junior. He was small but could hip check like crazy. When I played Midget the rule was to time the hit so it was intendment to injure. Anyways Defense and goaltending really need a overhaul as offense is way to OP now.

Defending is hard. It takes skill. Running around hip checking people is not skill. If you're just running around trying to land hip checks, I can see what you're having difficulty in defending.
