In GM mode (with sliders) I'm experiencing quite different gameplay compared to regular exhibition games, even though the sliders are pretty much the same.

In GM mode, the CPU rarely gets a shot on goal (much like older NHL games) but are incredibly effective (much like older NHL games). In exhibition, the shot totals are usually quite balanced and it seems strange to me.

The ridiculousness really kicks in when you check the hitting stats, postgame. In exhibition matches, I'm still ahead in hits, maybe by 5-10 (so if I get 15 hits total, the CPU gets around 8 or 10). In GM mode, the CPU usually doesn't land a single hit until the third period! This seems even more strange to me since it's such a huge difference.

Anyone else noticing the same things? Mainly the hitting, since I've jacked up aggression and everything and the CPU still refuse to play rough.
