"You'll also notice that the AI goalies also have new animations and poses to refresh the look."

Hopefully this means different goalie styles instead of all the goalies being the same ones!

Pretty sure every goalie will be the same

If he is on the cover they should have him in a St. Louis Blues jersey but in his Kings mask and pads so as to truly represent NHL 16.....sorry couldn't resist I'm still sore over no player edit. I am glad goalies are getting attention let's see if it translates in gameplay.

Hopefully they updated how goalies hold their catching glove as well.

This is all great news and all, but the first thing im going to do when I buy nhl 16 is going to practice mode and shooting on the goalie to see if they actually did anything to the same repeated goals going in. AKA short side and a few other things.

Just need a variety of ways to score. I know some goals are high percentage and should go in more frequently, but the amount of times DIV 1 players in HUT attempt the same goals, it ruins the game. Hopefully "new animations" creates more variety.
