I wouldn't exactly say playoff crumbler. Daniel had 20 points in 25 games. Henrik had 22 in 25 games. Now if you want to say finals crumbler go ahead the two combined had 5 points in 14 combined games.

That a good job right there so players feel different. What I can't understand is the fact that you have "rushing D" and another type of D. That means that guys like Boyle, Campbell or Markov will react exactly the same as guys like Green, Doughty or Keith. People who watch hockey enough knows that Mike Green can't play in his zone to save is life while Andrei Markov is pretty solid. Both are solid puck movers and chance takers, but the comparison stops there! In the same way, guys like Chris Pronger will play the same as Johnny Boychuk or Matt Carkner? Because I mean, these are 3 stay back D, but I guess there's a difference between the 3 of them. I'll have to see, but like I said, since NHL 11 is a dangle-fest, McDonald's Caravan Tour hockey game, there's no surprise to me that again, we will see D-man get dangles out of their skates by players who wouldn't even dangle their mother to get their pop-tarts out of the toaster!

I was just joking with this comment,....just in case it didn`t come across that way.

I can say that a big part of the problem is that many people just don`t know how to play defence very well.
I`m not saying they aren`t trying to do the right things,....it`s their effectiveness.
They wouldn`t make the cut,so to speak.

i am glad they are doing this. i was wondering about this with 11. when i play PES, NBA 2K and a couple other games, the players do feel different. with 11, i could not really tell the difference with the players whether on my team or against me. i thought it was just me not being good at the game.

They probably haven't secured the licensing rights for this iteration of the game yet.
