::::::::::Quick Review:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Note{Just because my name is Ten_Out_Of_Ten, does not mean that every game I review will get that score.}

The Good
************
- Fluid gameplay
- Returning game modes are fun.
- "Be a Pro" mode is interesting
- Online roster updates are much appreciated
- Graphics are the better than any other hockey game
- Love the addition of minor league teams in dynasty mode.
- A full, 6-on-6 online game is very fun.
- Overall great presentation

The Bad
**********
- Online has its bugs, and could be improved
- Faster load times would have been nice
- Can be VERY difficult to score on goalies.
- Computer player is sometimes too good.

9.5/10
:::::::::: This game is the best hockey game around, and is funnest when playing with friends or online with loads of people. Well, if you can figure out how to score on the goalies. GO SENS SO!!
