    The lack of changes will disappoint some, but for 20 bucks the minor tweaks and new roster nicely enhance what was already a great game.

    The AI is still riddled with holes and your money plays from last year will still work. [Oct. 2006, p.94]

    The total package feels soulless and, as a result, rather unappealing. [Dec 2006, p.95]

    But for this season, pay the extra bucks and go with EA's NHL 07 instead. [Nov. 2006, p.110]
