Canucks would trade Ballard for a bag of pucks or bury him before trading Edler.
Maybe it was just selected in the options? Or does it happen randomly, sometimes OT, sometimes tie?
It's a demo. I don't think I've ever played a demo that didn't have some kind of problems.
NHL14: True Performance Hits, Real Life Ragdoll hitting physics.
Or NHL15. Not 13 for sure.

I really hate that one-timers seem to be non-existent now, they needed to be tuned down but I think this is a little too far, seems like the AI reads every single pass and perfectly blocks it.
They need to fix the shooting physics before they do anything else.
Make better passes?

They are pretty good passes, just one of the things I don't like, though overall it is much better than 12.
Looks like I'm retiring then. Hitting seems to be overpowered, you get knocked off the puck if someone sneezes on you.
Also my go to Shootout move seems to work even better, excellent.
The hitting is overpowered, too many hits where the player getting hit gets cleaned out.
Skating is a big improvement and looks like dump and chase might be more important.
The one timers were pretty tough when you aren't close to the net but I was able to get a few tap-ins with cross crease passes.
Had a tie game with no overtime.
Playing on default difficulty.
I noticed more shots going wide which seems more realistic.
Are the nets smaller?
I'm going to play with player lock on tonight to see how the ai works when you're on the same team.

Does it involve the leg kick? That seemed to work a little bit in free skate on breakaways.
Nah, I come down full speed then slow down about 6 feet in front of the goalie to freeze him then just tuck it around him.
Who says one timers dont work.

More Jerome.

My best scorers are Horton, Jerome and Brown. Mostly powerforward type guys and guys like Raymond, Grabner seem to weak to fight in front of the net to get open for some passes. I guess size matters in this game.

Some key tidbits from Gilman's interview with Team 1040 today:
- Confirms Doan wants to stay in Phoenix IF Jamison buys the team, keeps them competitive and stay in Phoenix.
- Kesler's hole will be filled from within the organization.
- Highly touted D-Prospect Frank Corrado is developing faster than expected.
- Sedin's $6.1 million is not the internal limit for players on the team. Salary can be negotiated as long as it fits team's cap structure.
- Canucks are sticking with the Wolves for next year.
- Mike Gillis likes Wine, Bicycles, and High End Mens Clothing

But from within the organization.....

He's really taking the whole You Can Play thing to heart.
It's pretty hard to do in game because the AI plays you real tight if you get in too close. That goal would be a problem during shootouts/penalty shots but not really a big deal the rest of the time.
Osorio, this game is pretty realistic, you should get it.
I just want everybody to know, I hate all of you.

Guess your "plan" backfired then, eh?
I was a misanthrope before this thread. Don't get ahead of yourself.
To be fair, his joke WAS the most hilarious of all the attendance jokes so far. It's nothing personal.
To be honest I'm cakebossed and thought he was making fun of Marty.
All of you make me sick.
He always gets ahead. He knew the Rangers were going to lose in the first round so he stopped watching them in January.
Is he from the Tri-State area? I feel like he's from like Rotterdam and has seen the Rangers 3 times in his life.
One more appletini will help you get over that.
I could use one. Nothing more annoying than running dry before 8:30
Aww thanks bro. I love you too man.

Takes some getting used to it, but it will be a lot better online and in EASHL, so we don't have 6'6 265 pound guys skating around like they're Datsyuk.

According to "Marvie's Law", this joke has been used past it's expiration date. Please refrain from any further uses. Thank you.

Queens born and raised Braj. Where you at? Probably someplace where the majority of the people care about the Rangers or the Flyers no doubt.
I like the menu and presentation. I could be wrong, but did they do more work on the players' faces? They seem more lively (in terms of skin tone), but still a bit robotic in expression.
Skating does feel a lot different from 12. I like how it looks in motion (especially when a player makes a turn), control-wise, it'll take some getting used to. "Heavy" seems like the right term. It's literally like controlling a bowling ball that's thrown on the ice.
Can't really judge the goalies yet until the actual game comes out, but I've seen one diving save so far from Quick. Scoring goals seem tougher, but I can't really judge that from a demo, I think.
Presentation is pretty good. I'm assuming the whole roster pops up in the menu background eventually. And I'm assuming those update reflecting trades or signings. I like having the goalie cam in the net for the highlights, but I'll probably skip those when the game comes out. Everything in-game seems "warmer" in colour. More depth of field, just blur in places, too.

I'll take this over the stop & cut on a dime shit in past games. Skating in 13 feels pretty realistic to me.
Oh yes, agreed. I'm still playing 12 due to my Be A GM save, but I'm jumping on 13 day one.
Jersey City, land of annoying Rangers fans.
He probably had his head down and couldn't avoid the contact.
Nothing you can do in that situation. Should have been a non-call.
