The patch has made it harder to score for me, for some reason. And my guys are again doing exactly the opposite of what I want them to do no matter what strategy I set them to. I out shot Chicago and had plenty of chances to score but couldn't punch it in, then he just skates down with one guy and puts some bullshit goal in.
I don't understand why my D-men just give up the zone and allow my opponent to skate in and stick the puck right in nabby's ass. Then when I skate with the puck I feel like I have every guy on the other team coming at me and blocking passes/shots, etc. Frustrating.Comment

Originally posted by HeelsoxI'm not a fan of the patch at all...every poke check leads to a player taking a dive and a tripping penalty.
If you play proper hockey you won't be called for it. I use the poke check and stick lift when it is proper to use it and I don't get called, mostly because I am not sitting in my zone hammering the button trying to cause a turnover. Your guy shouldn't be in the zone looking like he is jacking off on his stick.
As I pointed out in the 360 patch thread, Leaf and I played games last night and it was just as hard hitting and physical as any other game we played. I had 31hits in the first period and I had two penalties or a little more, and all my calls were me doing it to show him the changes. But in our OTP game, I didn't take a single tripping call, or any interference calls. Leaf took 3 penalties but he will be the first to say he should have got them all.
This patch is starting to really get the proper hockey play back into this game. You can't sit there hammering the poke check button all day long. So many guys rely on that button and it just isn't realistic, and now the game is making you pay for it.Last edited by Ravin; 03-04-2009, 10:41 AM.All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.
"rammer" and "cummings"
The NHL series is a giver, Madden takes the load.Comment

Shit this started? I thought it got closed because the hockey section got taken away, then I find out they put it under other sports or some shit. Thats weak sauce btw... very weak.
So what do we do here play every team in our division once or something?
Leafs offseason training!Comment
