I've come to the conclusion that this game is all about chance now and requires no skill anymore. You can have no team work at all and just loft weak wristers to the net which the goalie will have the hardest time saving and will produce a nice fat rebound right to the incoming attacker who will have a wide open net to shoot at. I refuse to play this type of garbage hockey. I guess I'm not like the other cheesers/cherry pickers that play this game just for a cheap win. They should just patch it so weak shots that produce rebounds go to the SIDE of the net not right in front of the net.

Don't even get me started on these faceoff spammers that should NEVER win a faceoff. EA's reason for not kicking/penalize these spammers out of the faceoff circle is because it will slow the game down. Trust me, if you're constantly spamming and get penalized, you're going to learn and stop. EA really needs to stop catering to "casual" fans. I don't think I've ever been so furious with an NHL game in my life. You can dominate teams in this game in every way but they'll come down and shoot a weak ass shot that has no possible chance of going in and your goalie will be handicapped and let it in. Really EA? Fix your shit!
