CD event Feedback: What is your GAMEPLAY pet peeve?

[Qb]

OK, to get the ball rolling, I've got a little idea. Please post your SINGLE biggest "pet peeve" regarding the GAMEPLAY of NHL10. In other words, something that happens on the ice that drives you nuts. For example:

Got it? Remember, stick to what happens ON THE ICE please. Thanks.

Mine is the same thing QB it makes defending harder than it should be.
In 2k it seems if im in good defensive position i can usually make a play of some sort but In NHL i cant .

[matt8204]

Bozos whose idea of playing defense is having their players dive and flop all over the ice to get in the way of the puck or my players. Ridiculous. This pertains to online play.

The CPU being able to change directions so quickly.

There's more but that's the first that comes to mind.

+1... Especially your not too sharp offline cpu teammates

CPU going into berzerker mode and watching non-skilled players shoot and pass like all-stars.

Try to be as specific as possible. "Lackluster AI" is quite vague, whereas something like "the CPU is too reluctant to shoot" is more what I'm looking for. I want specific items I can look for and/or point out at the event.
