I actually usually only play GM mode vs the computer, and this is the best game in years for that in my experience. Its a good balance of being hard without feeling cheap, my season is going to be a battle to make the playoffs, which makes it fun. I also feel like I get punished when I don't pay attention to defensive positioning, and feel satisfied when I pull of some good cycling and offensive zone play and get a goal.
I think the criticism at release for lack of modes was warranted and there are huge areas that need improvement, but the on ice game is actually quite good.
Probably the game I've enjoyed the most in single player since the heyday of the 2k series.
