Very similar to actual hockey. It's easy for skilled players to score in the slot if left unchecked because the angles are optimal for the shooter and terrible for the goalie and also close enough that it makes it incredibly hard to react in time which is why the shooting% is so high in the slot. It's pretty much the number one job of the defenders to stop from happening. That being said I'm waiting for NHL 16 to see if EA gets their act together.
