Watch: This year’s improvements to the skill stick in NHL 14

A new video from EA Canada details improvements made to the skill stick in NHL 14.

Most important of the changes are tweaks to faceoffs, so those who used to exploit a last-second spam-fest as the puck dropped will soon find themselves out of luck.

As a real-life defenseman myself, I really appreciate the improvements to poke checks as well. You really can’t beat a good poke check.

NHL 14 will be available from 13 September for Xbox 360 and PS3.
