NHL 15 Screenshots - New Faces in New Places

[Steve_OS]

EA Sports has just released some more NHL 15 screenshots. These feature Paul Stastny (St. Louis Blues), Christian Ehrhoff (Pittsburgh Penguins), Ryan Miller (Vancouver Canucks), Thomas Vanek (Minnesota Wild) and Jarome Iginla (Colorado Avalanche).

I wish that the jersey are work in progress and that the final result it's the jersey of paul statsny that look incredible well and different of other, the jersey of the stastny screenshots looks very real insted the others look cartoonish!

In the picture with Stastny the crowd is looking completely in the wrong direction, when in real life they'd certainly be looking at the goal. With all the talk about realistic crowds in this year's game I hope this is just a fluke in this screen. MLB 14 has the same issue (crowds are always looking toward second base even when the play is at the plate etc).

From which year is that Vanek face? 07 or 08?

Really like how they basically ripped off Eddie Lacks mask, put it on Miller. Yet Jimmy Howard is wearing a mask form NHL 07. Don't know why I'm surprised, Van. always gets and looks great. I wonder why LOL

Any artists made mask they need permission from the artist themselves or risk lawsuits, its the same reason they won't have tats in madden this year except for specific players who had their tat artists sign a waver. After that NCAA lawsuit I don't blame EA or any publisher for being weary when it could mean a million dollar+ lawsuits over likeness in a videogame.

I just like to attribute that to something else. I know when I go to a game, I try to follow the play as close as I can. However, sometimes you can't help but look at the bench, scoreboard, players, etc etc. I think it would look rather stupid if every single fan was watching the play. I do think EA should add some people holding their faces, on the edge of their seat, standing up holding arms or just some sort of emotional gesture if it's a close game and the opponent is in the other zone or a break away.

Hahah you are so right, I didn't even notice that. The only time the crowd would be looking away like that is if there was a fight about to break out.
