Now let's say there's a passing play back door like they've shown in a couple videos, specifically the Hockey IQ one. I believe a goalie does need to cheat a little bit but it all depends on how good a goalie trusts his D-Men. The reason for cheating is because they have to travel a pretty far distance (depending on the how far out the goalie is) in a split second because passes are so quick. Now that goalies are bigger (Lundqvist or Rinne) they only play at the top of the crease because they can take up a crap load of net without coming out as far. This gives them a much smaller distance to travel so cheating may not be needed quite as much. In a situation like Quick he comes out of the net more because he's smaller. This means he has to react much quicker and at the same time cheat a little bit so he gets to the back post for the back door pass. He's a goalie who can just tell if the player is going to pass or not.
Overall it truly depends on the goalie. Every goalie/goalie coach is going to have their own theories and what not. To me it just depends on the goalies size and positioning. So truly if they were going to make the goalies realistic in this game, they would ultimately break each goalie down and have them play like their real life counterpart rather than them all just playing the same way. This will most likely never be done because at this point we are still having a hard time picking out Crosby over Raffi Torres in the game. I wish this would get done someday because goalies are the most unique position in any sport. In fact I'm not even sure why EA separates the goalies with Hybrid, Butterfly, and Standup. They don't mean anything or play any different in the game. It kind of sucks because you have guys like Brodeur and Thomas who play so differently compared to these big newer age goalies who rely on pure fundamentals rather than throwing whatever body part they can at the puck. It would just really make this game so much fresher and unique if you could tell the goalies who play differently than the others.

Like we've seen in a few videos already, and the team have mentioned it; if your going on top speed your shots will likely miss target, and you'll lose the puck easy if engaged.
I hope the deking works in the same way.
If they are now introducing a whole new skating engine, and the whole "top end speed" thingy it'd be a shame if I was on a 1-on-1 breakaway, and trying to use my speed to get past the defender, deke, and my player automatically slows down.
No... I'd rather he kept the speed, but lost the puck due to not being able to control the deke at full speed.
If I wanted to, I could let go of the left stick to start gliding, getting in control and then start the deke.
That way I have an option, and the control is on me.

also, i was really disappointed that the 3 interview videos they did focused on the same info they released with the community day video.
i know we have a long way til release, but they hyped it up about being at E3 but we really didnt get any new info.
would have been great if they could have expanded on the GM Connected, just like Madden did.
