IGN has posted an interview with David Littman, Producer of NHL 10.
IGN: "With the playoffs in full swing, how will you simulate that in NHL 10? "
David Littman: "The 2009 playoffs have been amazing to watch because of all the raw emotion both on the ice and in the crowd. The first thing you'll notice in our game this year during the intro to each game are the brand new crowds that are all standing on their feet and waving towels. You'll also notice other props such as foam fingers and puck heads. Once you get into gameplay, we have features all authentic to what you're seeing right now in the NHL playoffs, such as team's starting their 4th line to set the tone, post whistle scrums, fights after the whistle, coincidental penalties, penalties after the whistle, grinders and tough guys finishing their checks to wear down opponents, and glass bangers reacting to the action right in front of them. If you stop behind the net with the puck, you'll even see the one guy all by himself that every arena has who will stand up and bang the glass by himself."
