Agree, if you look on the orange crosshair following the puck it seems that (at least) most part of the puck is inside the goal line.
The whole puck muts be inside the line for it to be goal, but as you mentioned, if the puck was batted from that position, ended up just inside the post, then it seems wierd to have bounce out of the goal.

Seen that in 09 an 10 as well...

Because they scored so many last year right? Just kidding, being a Stars fan I didn't see too many either.

As far as I know he's been on the team since 07.

I think we saw in NHL 10 w/ shooting from the knees and bat in goals that EA is very good at finding the right frequency for these sort of "wow" moment goals. I could certainly be wrong, but based on my experience w/ NHL 10, and the fact that I saw nothing even close to this from two days of playing NHL 11 late in May, I would say you needn't have to worry about this.

I really disagree. They stated that penalty shots would be at a very low occurrence, which happens around twice a game (assuming you're playing online), and they also said where the goalie just swipes the puck out of the air with his super human senses would happen every 10 games, which happens about every other game.

To comment on the video, I really dislike the unrealistic swipe out of the air. He just got totally crushed and is able to swing his stick up in the air, with stellar accuracy, and swipe the puck top shelf. I really dislike stuff like this.

I remember them stating more penalty shots would be called in 10.

The issue isn't that there's 2 penalty shots a game, the issue is that people are tripping guys on breakaways 2 times a game. They are almost always the right call (maybe sometimes they are a bit questionable sure). I think i force 1 opponent penalty shot every 20-30 games because i play with discipline, something most guys don't use in those situations. (actually i have to, because i'm terrlble at controlling the goalie )

Back in NHL09, it was a common online tactic for a guy to be on a breakaway and the human defender would just intentionally dive at his legs, and way too frequently they just called 2 min tripping and not a PS (i think i only had 15-20 PS attempts in 500 online vs NHL09 games) It was so annoying to finally set up that perfect breakaway pass and have a guy just take out your legs successfully.
