Cons:

- Goalie AI is terrible! It wasn't good last year but its been terrible
so far. My teams goalie let's in the absolute worst goals from low
percentage shots that 85% of the time won't go in real life. Just
kills the enjoyment out of the game.

- Last year I loved the Hardcore settings with the new physics felt
like real sim hockey. This year on those settings I find it very arcadey.
Feels way to fast and a little to cluttery and I'm not noticing the physics
that much. Just looks and feels like a very high end arcade game.

- Computer very rarely takes penalties still a total buzz kill

- They need to get some real authentic sports pump up songs to play
in game like you would hear at a real sporting event during breaks in
action. They also need a new PA announcer thats louder and try to
capture the reals sounds of pucks, sticks, crashing into boards etc
you'd hear at a real hockey game.

- Passing seems to be worse although to early to tell

- The price! I paid $93 with tax and the 3 dollar protection. I almost
had a heart attack and told the guy at EB Games WTF!
$93!
I traded in nhl15 mlb the show15 and battlefield and got it for $29.
