Have the Devs ever watch anyone skate?

Have the devs ever watch anyone skate? or ever watched a game of ice hockey? I doubt it, or they would have noticed a few things.

The skating and movement in the game is laughably funny at times, it's so poorly implemented. You have AI skates moving laterally on their skates, while the skates are pointed forwards, then they can spin without their skates changing direction... it's real physics bending stuff and it looks hilarious.

Seriously question the talent of the Devs at EA sports... generally speaking updates are supposed to improve the game and remove bugs, not make the game worse and add new bugs. 

Seriously the game is just at such a poor level right now, it's as if they borrowed ideas from the FC 26 team in how they could make the game worse.
