AI Line Changes Are Completely Broken

OK, this is ridiculous. Is anyone else seeing this in their Squad Battles? Your AI teammates skating off the ice when the puck is entering your zone OR WORSE, already in your zone. I have had multipl...

    The stick can pass through objects/bodies when they aren't poking or using the defensive skill stick. This behavior is normal. I get that yo don't like seeing the stick clip through objects and players, but this is due to not having 1:1 control over your stick. You don't have the ability to move it out of the way. So, it can pass through players and objects, but can't affect the puck for a bit if it does.

Thanks for those. I'll get them over to the dev team. The last video is set to private so I can't see it.

Should be able to view it now. That one is BAD, let me know if you can now see it.

    just to confirm, I also noticed some strange line changes in season mode. For example, had the situation that my AI D man just left his position and crossed the opponent AI and went off for a line change. This in the middle of a counter attack that led to a 2 vs 1 situation and goal for opponent AI. Unfortunately I dont have a video proof.

    I provided EA with multiple videos of this issue. Now, let see if they fix it. This is a big enough issue that it has cost me games. It needs to be patched immediately. It simple, just go back to the code from NHL20, it was not an issue then.
