Unfortunately, not all of this can be put on the game. I have watched the video too and some of it has to be put on the player base who in a sense does not play hockey in a game that is based around you trying to play hockey (skating in circles and only using one shot type doesn't show any sort of hockey experience).
This game does have issues overall but if you play offline (I have put in 80 games so far), the issues that are mentioned are not an issue at all, plus one timers are not as guaranteed and AI defenders can block them, deflect it or the goalie can actually stop it on higher leveled difficulty.
AI isn't perfect but better then last year which is why you see less mentions in the thread about it and when you do its just relating to online portions of the game.
I posted a thread a few days ago about how bad online is compared to off-line. The game is wasted online due to how people play.
I'm happy sticking with off line this year. Its better for my sanity and the gameplay is really good offline.
