In the WHL finals now, the hitmen have finally learned how to score when I'm not on the ice after losing 6-5 in game #1 with my player being involved in 4 of the goals we've now won 6-1 and 5-2 with my player only have 5 points in those 2 games.

I'm in the NHL now with Edmonton, I've learned that you have to be a lot smarter as a defenseman then in previous versions. Those long passes that you can do in 11, or even in the WHL tend to get gobbled up now by a roaming forward. If you decide to take that one step too many you tend to get knocked on your a$$.
So a lot of times, you have to do the smart thing in a bad situation and bounce the puck off of the glass and out.
The physical fights in front of the net are quite awesome. I absolutely mugged Martin St Louis in one play.
On the power play because the forwards are smart enough to take your spot on the post, I'll take my 6'5 frame and go mix it up in front of the net.
One big mistake, I got two punched in a fight with Iginla. We were tangling up in front of the net, so I turned and said "Excuse me Mr Iginla, first time insulter long time fan, but I noticed that you dropped your purse behind the net, I would be happy to fetch that for you"
So I got pummeled for being nice, turns out that the purse behind the net actually belonged to my team mate Sam Gagne. But who knew.
