The team needs to work on puck physics some more to make it livelier. Hopefully that's next year since they revamped (and needed to) the skating.

This is the most true thing I've seen. Pucks and sticks go through defensemen like they aren't even there. Perfect positioning on a play isn't rewarded nearly enough. Forwards can put their stick through a D-man's skates to get a puck then shoot it all in one motion while the D-man sits there swearing at the screen as he should be.

Saying defense has an unfair advantage whatsoever is just an ignorant statement.
