Then there's the always fun "skate into the crowd and come out the other side" strategy. But it's still a crapshoot who will pick up the puck first and when a forward is speeding at the net there's few tools at the defense-man's disposal to deal with the situation. It can be defended by getting a defense-man positioned correctly to try to get the rebound before the offense can. Take the "weak shot from the sideboards for a rebound" goal for example. Not because the offense is overpowered but because there are just so many times when we score or the other team scores and there's just nothing the defense could have differently to prevent it. We've always been a defense-first team and this year has been incredibly frustrating. This is exactly what my club was talking about last night. Now, there are too many helpless moments on defense. It's just nearly impossible nowadays with all the weird gameplay mechanics. I think its time for NHL or Pro hockey player consultation for gameplay behavior. not saying the current staff at EA is bad because there are alot of good things but clearly the direction of the game changed after nhl 11.Īlso David Littman was an actual NHL player. Am i wondering what NHL 17 could have been had it built on the key hockey fundamentals displayed in NHL 09? YES!. Now, am i saying that i am dropping 17 to play 09.? No. ( not that Doc is not good IRL but EA did not capture the emotion he is known for) Bill Clement actually has more emotion when you score than the current DOc emrick. There were a ton of bugs like player going for a line change and just standing at the bench until a whistle blew.Ĭommentating is WAY better than it is now. Goalies went into weird save animations but for the time the game came out.its tolerable. especially when you rip one in the net and it pops back out or glides out.Īny body contact made you lose control of the puck which is what happens IRL Skating aminations were bad but i had more control of my skater than i do in NHL 17 My 5 year old was playing this game this morning.and i thought to myself.let me see what this game feels like after all these years.so i interrupted my sons play time to see if the gameplay was better than nhl 17!
