NHL network has been rerunning playoff games from last year and I was watching parts of it thinking about hardcore mode.

Hardcore mode is so much closer to real hockey. 09 was pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, shoot. That really doesn't happen that often. The play is usually much more "sloppy" and things don't set up so smoothly most of the time.

I've made so many rushes through the zone where I try a pass to a winger and miss and it bounces along the boards and ends in a turnover. You see that in the NHL all the time, but rarely in video games.
