AI defencemen skating backwards.

Would really appreciate if the devs could look into this. 

When changing to a defenceman on a rush they are always facing play and skating backwards. This causes an instant disadvantage as the offensive player has built enough speed to easily skate past the defenseman.  

In my opinion I think this is why people get so frustrated that their top rated defencemen are being out skated with low ovr forwards.

    Hey there. Auto backskate doesn't affect AI players. If they're backskating when you take control, you'll need to pivot to skating forward. I'll pass on the feedback about them backskating when they shouldn't be.
