There def is ICE TILT in this game, to the likes of those who can't understand that are coward gutless glitching cheap players who actually stink and hide behind it. There is no reason for a team that has way more talent to somehow be way slower, cant pass, are suffocated, take constant penalties, AI is significantly dumber and cant even make any passes, just skate into the boards to take a hit, cant check nor do half the things the other team can with garbage level D2 players. Those games are the easiest ones to stay in by the way.
The difficult games are the ones where most of the time you are demolishing, out-shooting, out-passing, out-hitting and when I say outshoot, I am talking quality chances, not just throwing it on net just to get it on net chances, destruction in every possible way and you just can't score. Then these guys just take some junk shot that always goes in the net.
When you add all that up then you have the variable added which is the piece of junk no talent gutless spineless coward most often "Canadian" who glitches his way to victory by taking the all famous glitch shot coming down the right wing boards with a left handed shooter to the top of the face off circles and shoots the opposite direction thinking hes some type of hockey God when hes a no talent scrub pattern memorizing geek that I want to shove his face in dog terds and dump a massive bucket of diahrea on his face while girls puke all over him with a geeky gamertag like fosheezy thinking hes tough wearing a bandanna bobbing his head to rap music sitting in the basement like chunk from the goonies while his mom throws scraps in the basement because he never leaves it.
That factor combined with the unfair ice tilt luck fest creating piece of junk every bounce goes their way and you cant poke check them at all and they can poke check you from 45ft away and track you down like a wild rabid dog with a much slower guy cheap Cheat EA DOUCHE ENGINE, its impossible for people with actual hockey skill to enjoy the game when you lose to these types of players the way that you are forced and mandated by EA to do.
These spineless geeks attribute pump some of the most glitching geeks ever seen where they are 4ft 7 125lbs so they can have max speed and somehow can withstand a check from a MAC Truck colliding with him and force his way with a mites on ice style of NO TALENT FAKE GARBAGE UNREALISTIC STYLE of hockey I ever seen then acts likes its normal and has no idea what you are talking about.
I am never going to by an EA game again and can only hope 2K develops a true hockey game.
