Hundreds of new skating animations have been captured for NHL 2K7. Not only will skating look much more natural, but players will also experience the true momentum of skating every time they dig into the ice to accelerate or carve the ice to make sudden stops.
In addition to the many new skating animations, several new checking, passing and shooting animations have been added, making all the action in NHL 2K7 fluid with stunning detail. New gameplay improvements have been added to Pro Control, giving users offensive and defensive tools to use on the ice.
On offense, players now have the ability to execute drop passes, allowing users to set up new screen plays and create new scoring opportunities to catch the goalie off guard.
