Yep, just heard it again. It's way off. WTF, last year at least it was fairly close!

Oh well, if that is my only complaint, and custom goal horns are in, I don't really care.

I just had a disallowed goal. Getslav was driving the net and lost the puck right at the crease and he had a slight kicking motion as the puck went in. Awesome to see. They showed replays from a few angles and the ref went to center ice to wave it off

Damn Navy lol....I'm stuck out to sea for the week so I can't download the demo

You guys are making me anxious to get the Demo!

Thanks for confirming what I was thinking...seems to be a bit of a delay before it pops up...

For sure, way harder than last year, but I think with some slider adjustments it could be good again...need to reduce the cpu shot accuracy for sure, and manual passing sucks...

Anyone know if you can change the game speed? I looked in the settings but didn't see an option.

I think the problem re: the line changes and strategy lag is the little graphic they added. When you bring up the menu, there is a quick "materialize" animation that really throws off the timing, IMO.

Played with authentic puck size & shadow. Shots really feel like you rip them now. I feel like Niemi is VERY tough to beat in this game though. Moreso than any of the goalies I've faced during HUT or Leighton (obviously)

One awesome feature (finally!) is that you can pull your goalie during a stoppage in play and he will already be out pre-faceoff. It was ludicrous that this took so long to implement but thankfully it's finally there.
