I put up 8 against the Flyers in their barn and their fans let them HAVE it lol

There is no presentation option this year, just broadcasting option ...off, goals only and play-by-play

Last year's game had an option for condensed presentation elements which I believe was the default. You have to go into settings > audio & visual settings > tab over to broadcast settings > set presentation to Full. That may be why some of you aren't seeing much presentation, unless there's a bug or something.

Really liking the fluidity and momentum. It’s a subtle but a well implemented improvement. Passing feels amazing both weight and direction - accuracy.

I only play on True Broadcast and on default the game speed is way too fast. I so badly wish they could put a zoom setting for the camera as default True Broadcast angle is again way too near the ice, but the camera itself is amazing. I can’t believe people still play up and down as the graphics are so 1990.

Player models look more real life. I don’t know if it’s the shadows or textures but they just look better.

Overall very good impressions.

First glitch. Simmed a BAP shift and it got stuck, had to quit the game.

Anyone get any goals on deflections yet or seen a deflection at all? After those were basically patched out of 22 the game lost a lot for me. I've played a few thus far and haven't seen any yet but am hoping against hope. Just ain't hockey without deflections.

Yep, second goal of the year

I had a nice goal from the corner where I turned around on a shot with Rantanen and MacKinnon deflected the toe of his stick in front of his skate near the crease and it trickled in.
