do the player attributes go up to 7 like last year? I think it would be better if the attributes were from 0-100 like in nhl 2001 or madden 2001

I doubt thats the case but its a great idea...when ratings only go up to 7 you cant distinguish between players as much...so while 1 player might be better than another on a certain skill they may receive ratings that are the same or only 1 point different.
