It really is. There's zero balance to the game now. Defensive players are at an amazing disadvantage because none of the defensive tools work anymore (poke check, pass interceptions) and the skating engine was tuned to allow figure skaters to run the show again. Nerfing goalies brought back several cheese goals from previous years again too.
The demo played fine. I'm not sure what the hell happened between then and release but this game needs a huge set of tuners released in a hurry.
Aside from needing to play more games to level up my NHL pro is there any way to boost up my stats? I have the "CCM pack" and "Warrior Pack" codes from pre-ordering through Amazon, are they for stat boosts?

I dunno, I wouldn't call it ass-raping. We were only losing by one or two goals. And the goals they were scoring were all from the same spot, between the circles, stick-side.
