Agreed. I'm loving it. Everything truly does feel more dynamic. There's more variety in the way goals are scored just because of the small things.
Defensive AI players sticks are a lot more active, and more importantly - the puck actually interacts with them.
Also, the way in which the goalies get interacted with seems to fairly well done. I've full on crashed into the goalie and was given a penalty (I had the puck so the play was called immediatly), but then I've also had one of my players very clearly checked from behind into the goalie which threw the goalie down to one knee and as this was happening I had the puck at the top of the faceoff circle and let go a shot which went in (and it counted).
