NHL 10 Video: New Goalie Animation

Personally I thought it was impressive in that it marks an end to the whole pucks rolling off goalies backs and magnetic bandaid saves.

He didnt push off his leg, he morphed into that terrible animation

He didn't actually make the 2nd save either. It hit off the side of the net.

He pushes off his right skate in an attempt to make a save. Its a bit choppy but thts what happened.

Wow Dumb A.I .Not only are the skating animations bad since 07', I can see they haven't adjusted them. Example, don't focus on the puck or Luongo making the save, just notice how the players in front of the net miraculously ...FLOAT on the ice. Now, try and point out Sergei Gonchar # 55 that is playing on the blue line in the video, just turns his back to the play and looks LOST. Now, that bugs me, because you guys probably have all experience this : In NHL 09, if you would pass to the point in he attacking zone, some of them would be completely ignored by the defenseman , or would not even be in position.

You guys still can't watch it? I can... It looked like he morphed into the animation, but from that angle, it is hard to tell. We will just have to wait and see, looks like EA succeeded in teasing me into following the game.
