Features:

Dominate with the Skill Stick – Take over a game with enhanced control system. On offense protect the puck, pull off spins, and dictate the velocity of every shot during scoring opportunities, or take away scoring chances with bone-crushing body checks and aggressive pressure on defense.

Play to Your Strengths – Utilize the skills of your finesse players to stick-handle through the zone, playmakers to set up scoring opportunities, and power forwards to use their body to drive past defenders. Or take advantage of the size, strength, and skill of your defensive defensemen to muscle and angle players off the puck.

Incredibly Realistic Detail – Players look and react more than ever like their real-life counterparts. See a sharpshooter’s stick flex on a blast to the net, a net minder look a puck into his glove on a big save, and how a goalie’s pads remain flush to the ice in and out of the butterfly.

Live the Life of a GM – Sign and trade players, negotiate contracts under the salary cap based on the new CBA. Once signed, it’s up to you to mold young players into the superstars of tomorrow while keeping the team’s overall confidence at its highest level.

The Most Exciting Play in Sports – Nothing matches the pressure and intensity of a shootout. With the puck on your stick, and the game on the line, see if you can become an instant hero by beating the goalie one-on-one.
