I should note that I don't play against the AI at all - I only play against human players in online versus mode, so all that "improvements" in the AI unfortunately aren't apparent to me when I play.

The timing thing with one-timers is really strange - in NHL 11, I could hold on to pass + up and when the puck comes to the player he'll one time it, but in 12, if I press Up too early, the player with the puck will shoot instead of pass. I don't know if this is for the PS3 version only but I can't get used to this change in timing.

and no, it's not because I can't score or win games. I stopped playing NHL 11 when my record hit 400-250-30something in online versus mode... started off in 12 pretty well, 7-0-0, then boom I lost 7 in a row because of all those things I just complained about.

For those of you that play Be a Pro or other multiplayer modes, you may not notice it as much, but when you play 1-on-1 against someone you will definitely notice those things I mentioned.
