    Demo Impression: NHL 13 makes tremendous leaps with gameplay
Posted by: Alex Rhoades  NHL 13 continues the long line of
critically acclaimed NHL games. Upon playing the game, you'll
notice a few changes that make the game better than ever.
Acceleration and speed actually matter in this year's game. In
previous versions, you would be able to start and stop on a
dime, while this one makes you take physics into consideration.
Speed is also important for the first time in years. Gain enough
speed by handling the puck and you'll be able to blow past idle
defensemen with ease. The combination of acceleration and speed
is also relevant while checking the opponents, sending them
flying with a hard check going at full speed.  NHL 13 Gameplay
One of the other biggest additions to the game is the
improvement to the goalies. Instead of being able to easily one-
time a shot (passing in front of the late goaltender and
shooting the puck off the pass) the goalie is now able to watch
both players skating towards him.
