• Based on a really small sample size, whatever they did to the keeper slot has largely been positive. I suspect they increased some auto responsiveness timing as well as increased some agility attributes so you can move laterally quicker but I digress. The biggest thing I noticed (which can be a combination of very small…

• Surprised I'm seeing so much hate for skating. I've played as a playmaker/defensive d-man/offensive d-man/ puck moving d-man and with those 4 builds I have noticed an increase in agility/turning radius. No it is not that of the older days where you could spin circles and puck rag forever but it is much closer to a…

• Looks like brilliant EA logic. Bet it was a pivotal GA late in the game too. But people hate the game because it is too real. LOL

• I would like to thank all for participating in my thread. I was surprised to log on and see how this thread has erupted. It's cool to have EA commenting...but it just shows how oblivious the dev team is. Several times the EA rep states how people are likely frustrated because this is the most simulation game yet to be…

• I play defense in EASHL and I hate it. Not because the defensive tools do not work, but because EA has implemented balancing techniques to make the weaker team competitive. This year (more than any previous) you can make the correct play and still get burnt because of a "bad puck luck" or a **** CPU goalie. Its…

• You may have said it better than I did. What this game does is use the AI to balance the game so the weaker team is competitive. Its quite evident just by the posts in this thread. Just throw the puck on net. Offense is easy. I'm scoring more goals now than ever. Gonna go out on a not so wild limb and say these individuals…

• I understand the concept all players are not made similar but I wish for OTP purposes they just made every player the exact same. Same height. Same weight. Same attributes leading to same overall. Let the players playing the game decide who wins.

• Disagree. More and more what your player does is automated. Dekes have become one touch. Goalies have become the equivalent to playing pong. Mismatched team AI in anything besides 6V6 keeps the 30 -10 shots and 2-3 score games coming. I think the last part is my biggest complaint. CPU is repeatedly advertised as…
