I dont see that goal as cheese, for 1 anyone who plays halfway decent D will stop it the player before he can shoot, most of the time and its also reacting to the goalie, it the goalie stays high and doesnt butterfly it wont go in. someone given time and space behind the net should find a way to score be it off a wrap around or a nice pass. thats setting up smart shots, not the bad shots that would never score in a pee wee game let alone the nhl. that the seem to have gotten rid of for now.

WOW 12 powerplays. I am not that much better on them, I have good chances but nothing hits the net. Maybe I feel like I have to score being that it's a PP and end up pressing.

Well, in your defence you haven't had any chance to practice them until now

Did they nerf the poke check a bit or is it just me? I haven't played in awhile so my D may just be off.

Shooting is much better. I really like what they did so far.

The line change bug fix is long overdue!

do you need a XBOX live GOLD Memership to get the patch, or will a silver one do?
