You should be able to do hit as a power forward. I played a couple games as a PF and rocked a few guys.

Re: Your Thoughts on the EASHL Beta

After playing about a dozen games and watching about the same amount of streams/youtube vids,I found that the RD's(yellow) icon and to some extent the LD's (teal) are not as sharp as the forwards or the goalies;they seem more blured.

I wouldn't call it a troll post. My impressions also made mention of the yellow icon and the icons in general.

EXACTLY!!

The way it should be.

I finally played two games and we had 4 humans in the first and it was damn fun.

If you have teammates that pass and work the puck you can have a great time. I found the poke check to already be much better than last year....I felt rewarded for a well timed check and in good position.

Our AI teammate was adequate but not a star....which is the point of the mode.....rolling with teams of 5 or 6 will be the norm....past versions of EASHL a two man team could really dominate out there......not saying that could still happen....but its going to be much harder.

Going to play some more but so far liking it a ton.

Please try to avoid calling others out for "troll" posts. If you really feel something is trolling then just report it. In this case, I don't see much trolling. It's perhaps a very specific observation, but it's not trolling.

Re: Your Thoughts on the EASHL Beta

played my first game today...EVER!

Game is slower which I like...less arcade-y. Passing and pass/puck pickups are pretty random, which I don't like. It seems that once again short passes are the least accurate.

Skating is going to take some getting used too....sometimes it is pretty unresponsive which is frustrating.

Shooting is toned down which is cool, but I have seen some slappers that were floaters that were pretty unrealistic.

Obviously a work in progress, but a good start.
