So I pushed a guy seriously just a light push and the glass shattered and he was not that close to the glass. Was not happy about that

Feels like NHL 11, which is a good thing. Few problems I noticed were

Problems pinning opponent against boards
Hitting a player down from behind with little momentum

Just saw something pretty cool.

I was in the Bruins zone and tried to pass to my dman who was pinching in.
Marchand tried to intercept but it went off his stick and deflected right on my pinching-Dman's blade for a decent shot.

In previous versions this would have been an automatic interception and turnover.

Two things.

1. I really like the realism on the boards. First, David Krechji was boarded, they stopped play. Showed replays and David limping down the runway.

2. The coolest thing ever happened in my first game. CPU took a slapshot, it hit of a Bruins knee and then the CPU baseball swing it out of the net into the goal. The referee then waved of the goal. It was the most amazing sequence to ever happen in a sports game.

I liked it a lot! Quite sure i'll be buying it.
My only complaint about the demo so far is that I find it hard to score goals with the sliders and shot aim both locked. Loved seeing player's loosing helmets in addition to getting Luongo into a fight!

love it. the gameplay is tightened up, seems more alive as you move around the ice.... plenty of options become available on the rush and setting up in the zone..

they finally removed the " C " off the bottom of luongo's mask and replaced it with a " V ".... and re-did burrows' player model.. graphically the game looks fantastic...

I beat thomas on a one-timer, but he stymied me down low with lateral movement with no rebounds... but it looked and felt like June 15th to me, he got in my head lol

I like the interference calls in this game. They were BRUTAL in NHL 11. Hopefully this will help hold back some of these obnoxious big hits in OTP/EASHL.
