Just starting to venture into online play, and I've noticed two things that I don't know what they are.

First, what are the numbers listed next to you and your opponents EA names in the little black boxes when taking a face off? Eg. I'll have a 14, and buddy I'm playing against will have a 5...the numbers change, but I can't figure out what they correlate to.

Second, a couple times when playing I've seen these yellow circles appear on the ice. It looks like its wanting someone or something to skate/shoot over there, but again, I don't see what, if anything, I'm doing to cause that or prompt it.

Thanks in advance,
