I do too.. I find myself cycling the puck around the boards in deep more so that 19 or 18 for that matter. Is it at the level I would like it? No, but the game has improved to me in some areas this year and has been flat out a blast to play again.

Fair enough, I'm not too sure many more will agree with you but we're all entitled to our opinion.

I respect your opinion as a long time poster. Also don’t know if it was you or someone else who suggested overhead camera but I love it!

How many minute periods do you play? You guys have sold me on buying the game now lol. Plan on just copying my settings and sliders from NHL 19 as starting point. Do you feel like you need to increase the minutes with the improved nuetral zone play?

I love the overhead camera.. odd thing for me though, the game plays differently, not in a bad way just more open ice and faster game play. So I have to decrease period minutes.

So I'm back to default dynamic medium. For me, it's a tighter game play. I still play overhead when friends come over to play.

You might want to redbox it or something, I'm just stating my impressions so far in franchise mode, AS defaults with fighting on 2/2 and penalties on 4/4, 8 minute periods.

I'm only 3 games into my Blues season but all 3 games have been fun. I just remember having to dump the puck in much more this year.

6 min periods for me using Al's sliders.
Pretty much gives me the requisite 30 shots per game.

I find it more difficult this year too. Just trying to carry the puck in results in my guy getting hammered.
