This is great news. Always hated that you couldn't really run a legit looking PP.

Glad to see them back! It's also going to take a while to relearn the alternate goalie controls. But I'm glad we have that option with different trigger/bumper placement.
I really wish the NHL team could sit down with the FIFA team for a lesson on how to handle post-goal behavior. The player scores, does his user controlled celebration, then we see 10-15 seconds of replays, and then another shot of the player celebrating. What was he doing for that 10-15 seconds? Just skating out there on the ice by himself, doing various different celebrations? Really kinda kills the immersion factor for me, because it looks so awkward.

I never could get consistent penalties. It didn't bug me much back when I didn't care much about realism, but over time i've grown to hate it more and more. The powerplay is such a huge part of the game, and taking bad penalties can really hurt a team. But in the NHL series it's always been such a non-issue.

I like the celebrations in FIFA as well. You start out with an individual celly, then your teammates come and mob you for a group hug. You'd think since both games are made in the same building (EA Canada), NHL would be able to handle more than two-person celebrations by now. FIFA has had cellies that transition smoothly from an individual to a group for many years now.

First Single Player Season game in HUT and I won 34-0. That does not fill me with warm and fuzzies. I think my highest rated forward is Emerson Etem. My team is low 80s, the team I was playing was low 60s. While it's a definite mismatch, this was something else.
