No worries about the confusion. Yeah, the CPU skaters are still frustrating to play with. A lot of guys have figured out how to regularly make them look like fools with the R-stick only toe-drag move. If we have five human skaters, having a CPU goalie doesn't bother us too much -- still prefer our goalie of course -- since we usually don't give up too many great scoring chances. But there are always the WTF moments and breakaways when someone gets caught pinching or not covering.

I guess all we can do is hope it's better in NHL12, as this is something we won't know until well after release.
