I'm a Defensive D-Man. I don't take many penalties, and I pass a lot. On an offensive zone faceoff win I do like to take the pointshot though.

I'm not too sure what you're talking about, the frame rates on this years is way better. Last years was choppy.

I'd also like to know what the Balance attribute does? Like specifically, does it help you stay standing if you're body checked? Or if you body check someone else does it help your recovery time?

You and your friend should both go to the purple blade of the Xbox Dashboard. From there run the Network test, and see what the result is for NAT. For NHL09 to work properly with everyone, NAT should read as Open. If it says moderate or strict you are probably going to run into issues.
To make your NAT open you need to make sure your Xbox is in your router's DMZ, or on your router open the ports that the Xbox needs.
