It's tough to keep a power play going. I see in the real NHL how often there are 1-2 players at the point to guard the puck going out of the zone, but here it's too easy (for me and the CPU) to clear the puck all the way down. Does anyone else notice this?
Speaking of penalties, a real freaky thing happened the other day. There was a delayed penalty called on my opposing team. So naturally my goalie automatically gets pulled. I don't remember exactly how this happened, but the puck got poked away from my player, slid 3/4 of the way down the ice and into my goal. AND IT COUNTED! Isn't the whistle supposed to blow the instant the penalized team touches the puck? Of course I still got the 5-on-4 power play afterwards... but it was little consolation.
