I think the patch made the game much more playable than before. It is definitely a great game if you lime video hockey. Great article on the updated patch as well

EA has definately gone above and beyond with their support for this game.

Definitely a deeper franchise mode. Also, why don't they let you know whos in the all-star game? Am I missing something? I had to play it to find out if any of my Blackhawks made it? They should have the voting like Madden. They should also include in franchise a headline feature as well as results from all the days games. Just my 2 cents.

Hi,
This is great news but means Zip to many who have moved on already do to 0 replay value Offline in dy Nasty.
So please add a Control all teams / play all games mode ALL sports games now have this back accept EA games ? I know your hot for having everyone ONLINE only but dont punish OFFLINE gamers , Options are good for all .
This game would be so great with a little Offline depth.
Oh and bring back Playoff mode that we used to have last gen ?
Its very nice you are addressing these issues and I cant wait till 2010 .
But Bring back some Fun for OFFLINE in all your games EA.

Good article. This is definitely the best sports game of 09 (The Show being second) but yes, it has glitch goals. In fact, there are still some there post patch 2. You can skate up from the back of the net sideways, angle your stick at 45 degrees and the goalie has to chose to guard short side or back, whichever one he guards, you simply wrist it into the other. It's cash money every-time. In fact, it's easier now that it was before patch 2. Back then, you'd always go short side, now it's almost always back side. But it IS there.
