cool they put in broken sticks. obviously a bonus with how much they occur in real life. i think they did a good job with the fall to your knees and try to score feature last year, so if its something that is worked in like that, i think it will be successful. just hate to see it overused.
hopefully the checking engine will be awesome. obviously some videos will be needed to really assess how improved that will be. they alluded to it a bit in that bug fix post, but i think they need to work hard on making it so set animations don't have to occur in sequence... being able to push the puck ahead as you get hit, or passing as you fall down, stuff like that. this year, if you get hit while shooting, you always score because the goalie tries to save the puck where it would go if you hadn't been hit. the animations would show shot and then hit, but you could tell that wasn't how the game processed them.
