I seem to be the only one who loves HUT the most... I have an untouched Kesler with a 95 rating. +5 all and a +2 all. Also have a few various 2nd and 3rd line NHLer's for sale. (Stafford, Connolly, Brown) Message me if interested, also looking for people to play against.

I don't know who else knows this but, this is a glitch that always works to hit the puck free from a goalie who covered the puck.

If you dive on your belly and swing your stick, it ALWAYS knocks the puck free. Sometimes I will hit it in the net, like in the video. I've probably scored around 5 or 6 EASHL goals that way, lol.

Just lost 3-2 and all three goals a result of three things that big me about this game so far.

1) Killing a penalty. Win a faceoff in your own zone. Defenceman skates behind the net to slapshot the puck around the boards and down the ice. Common play IRL. However when the dman is in the middle of his windup he bumps into the end boards causing him to miss the puck. Opposition picks up the puck and scores.

2) Defencemen hits opposing forward in the corner. The puck is sitting right under the defender but he decides not to take control. This continues long enough that the foward has time to get up, get the puck, bring it out front and score.

3) #1 again...

Maybe it's just me, but I personally think that EA should change the goalie requirements for legend.

For a goalie to get the legend card, he'd probably need around 10 consecutive shutouts or more to get that A- overall grade in the EASHLblink.gif

If one has 8 saves but lets in one goal, it's an instant F or D. In order to obtain B for the stats, you would need ~25 saves with 2 goals against.

Now this wouldn't be a problem but there is almost never 25-30 shots in the EASHL. If you play bad teams, they won't be able to even take shots because they won't be in your zone.

When facing a good team, they don't spam shots and go for high percentage chances only. Thus, if 1 goes in, the goalie gets a bad grade.
