This has been a problem with hockey games since the dawn of time. No hockey game as ever gottne this right and it MUST be addressed. A right handed shooter needs a pass from the right side of the ice and a left handed shooter vice versa. This is an important part of hockey and any powerplay. Handedness and the ability to shoot onetimers. Also the ability and skill to deflect or tap pucks in on cross creases. With the new passing and maybe some added stick control for one timers and deflections maybe they can make it really authentic.

While it does sound similar to 2k's enforcer system, 2k's implimentation of said system was pretty sucktastic. A system like that affecting players over the course of an entire game or series rather than a minute or two could add another element of depth to strategy.

Agreed on the onetimers, though aside from 2k's fighting system, face offs and some of its goaltending animations there's not much else I'd want to see stolen for EA's game.
