God no.

EASHL is going to be even worse than before. Dude's just create huge players to run other plays now - looks like more of the same in NHL 12!

Love those two new animations at 1:30 and 1:33 (with Jason Chimera carrying/shooting the puck). Nice!

If they make huge players, they're going to be really slow. I think you'll see a balance between the two.

Speed differential at play here now with the hustle button and regular skating, so it's a balancing act. Seems like attributes mean more this year.

Chase, excellent write-up! The gameplay and AI adjustments sound awesome. While you're still at E3 and have a chance to speak with any of the developers, could you ask them if they are doing anything to make Create-a-Team and Ultimate Hockey League more robust? i.e. add more city names, nicknames, and logos...
2 more questions to ask them: Will we be seeing NCAA Hockey, the ECHL, or any more Euro Leagues for next year?
Also, any chance that they are adding an EA Locker (similar to NCAA Football series) so that we can share roster files online with each other?

Thanks again for the preview, great job!

Couple questions for Chase:

1.Will Goalies become fatigued this year?

2. Is the Intermission more like one you would see on TV with game highlights and around the league scores and such, rather than highlights followed by the Pause menu?

3. Can you confirm if the Winter Classic is in BAGM or just a Play Now feature?

Yes, it is in Be a GM and after the first season, it randomly picks the teams
