Anyone else notice the away CPU team doesn't show the line they are putting out?

I noticed this too. Made a thread about it, but nobody posted. I don't think anybody knows.

It's a huge problem I hope gets fixed in a patch. At least the ability is there. I just think the new cutscenes and stuff have caused it to stop showing up every time.

It's really a bummer.

great article .... plus some tips in regards to the play: Behind-the-net, overload etc.

line matching as some people already mentioned is non-existent in NHL 12. perhaps they will put this in NHL 14 and add it as "new feature"?
