NHL 13 trailer promises advanced goalie A.I.

If you thought the goalies of NHL 12 just weren't up to snuff, you'll be excited to check out the new A.I. improvements coming to this year's installment. Now goaltenders remain aware of more players than just the puck-carrier, and can react accordingly to an advancing offense. This and other new features have NHL 13 looking like the best hockey game yet. Will you be hitting the ice for this one?
