I might argue back at EA's execs—if you want the NHL team to deliver a $70 value piece of software, invest the appropriate resources. Maybe you can grow sales like the NHL series managed to do at the peak of its innovation last gen.

Let us be able to play WHL teams in Be a GM along with pre-season games

I love how they act like drafting players is a new feature.

Rammer -- Is it possible to patch in GM Connected? The framework already exists for online 1v1 games, and the platform for GM modes is there, too.

I know you said not many people played it, but it's a big deal to me and the league I've had for a total of 10 or so seasons across NHL 13 and 14.

Well let's give props where it's do. The game on ice plays a lot better then 14 and does look great. However with the lack of game modes could you at least add vs friend vs in HUT? That would improve replay ability. Excited about this game regardless of the lack of modes and I'm expecting the greatest EASHL experience ever next year.

How will goalie equipment work if this is just impossible to get in? Thanks so much. I know your twitter feed has taken some heat over the past few days that you don't really deserve. But this is simply a feature I love to use.Note: I will be buying on Tuesday

Thanks for the note.
Edit player is important and something that you will see back in the game.
At this point i can't commit to a timeframe.

Not as part of these content updates.
Goalies are still a priority for us as they're a key part of the EASHL.
