The sad part is that Hockey is one of my favorite sports to watch and play in games, but I have been disappointed with many of the recent releases. Just the little things like Penalties....I know some have posted they get decent PP opportunities, that hasn't been my personal experience and I can't play a hockey game that can't nail a fundamental and important part of hockey. EA seems to have problems with penalties on their games....football, soccer, etc. Setting up shots always seems lacking, whether its my own teammates or the computer opponent. Most of the time it seems like you skate up and down the ice simply taking shots and by the end of the game you have some absurd shot totals. Rarely do I see a well developed play while distributing the puck, dumping and chasing, etc.

To be honest, I have never played any of the other modes besides Franchise/Seasons so maybe I am missing out on that experience.....just never thought I would like that aspect...but maybe I do need to try that.

Who knows....maybe I pick it up in one of the holiday sales .......
