I like it! This is likely the most realistic build of NHL ever.

I played 3 periods of "Play Now" and failed to score a goal. It's going to take a while to get used to, but I think the game will reward players/teams that play a good cycling/passing/team game. It's certainly going to be a big, fat turn-off for the figure skating type of players that are so common, and that's a very good thing.

The puck and stick physics are vastly improved. The checking works well, and the skating, turning and stopping feel perfect. I can't wait for the full game!
