That's one of my biggest gripes with this series.
Instead of making the AI smarter so that gaining the offensive zone is harder, they simply give the CPU speed boosts so that they can back up faster than your forwards can skate forwards.

Last night I played a game and Chara kept up with Mason Raymond while skating backwards.
Stuff like this annoys me.

I wish you could play Be A GM in the CHL. It seems that in the AHL and CHL the player separation is way more noticeable so your stars stand out more to the point you want them on the ice in certain situations.

Sliders may help this, but right now, I'm going to rent NHL12 first. NBA2K12 looks too darn good to simply hand EA money for nothing. One game will enter the ring, only one will come out.
