The additional enhancements suggested by omjo are good ones. It would be particularly good to display puck position on a rink background in real time if at all possible.

As for the momentum bar, I remember expressing concern on the forum that it seemed as though once momentum favoured a team, that team went ballistic on shots on goal, leading to two, three, or four times as many shots as its opponent by the end of the game -- quite unrealistic. I wonder whether the more realistic shots on goal results we are now seeing are related to dropping the momentum factor (and indicator).
Maybe it can be toned down a bit in that case. Though in a few games I've simmed that has still happened, I recall outshooting an opponent something like 16-3 in a third period which does happen IRL occasionally.
