Agree with Glenn to some extent, but I'm not impressed with gameplay, at all. AI is slightly improved on the defensive side, but offense is horrible. AI might cycle the puck a bit more, but only when human player's errors let them do it. If you watch AI play against AI, all they do is skate into checks when they have the puck.
Gameplay still has the same issues it has for years, puck control is too high, pass assist is too high, some checks still result in the good old rubber ball effect, where the player just bounces off the puck holder. Players still warp in an unrealistic speed when picking up a loose puck, yet skating past a loose puck without acknowledging it is still rampant. And the way you can skate through traffic without losing the puck is ridiculous.
I was pissed off at the missing game modes before, now I'm just pissed off. Worst NHL game since 07. If this had been released on 360 with the missing game modes I would've been happy, but this is not a nextgen game.
