I'm extremely excited for this. It sounds like they are revealing more than one feature, but who knows. This is definitely the earliest I've remembered information coming out about the next release. I'm hoping I won't be let down this early. Please let this be good!

Such an peculiar picture of a player with a weird helmet on.The whole picture is odd. Generic hockey player with an unflattering mouth-guard pose and weird helmet that has a non-NHL-like ear-cover.

Of course it's blatantly obvious I'm nit-picking the crap out of this picture...but I feel like that's what we're supposed to do with the first releases lol.

But seriously, to those in the know about the small equipment details, is there something telling about that helmet? Also, check out the body positioning in that picture. His right arm is at an odd angle. Almost looks like he's gearing up for a nice shoulder hit.

Maybe a new improved hitting/physics engine? Lord knows it needs it.

Skates will now come off? Lolol

I hope face off violations, as well as GOALIE FATIGUE are in finally..

And for those who say the faceoff violation will slow online games, I for one don't care about that. At least make it an option then.

What I would love would be a more realistic Draft with more scouting options and Junior Leauges (NCAA, USHL, NAHL, BCHL ect.) also where players you draft but don't have playing for NHL/AHL teams can improve.

As a feature I'd love something like NBA 24/7 (from like nBA live 08 or something) or whatever it was where the rosters get updated everyday including tendencies and hot/cold streaks.

This and correct contracts (50) and reserve contracts (90)

Hoping for a BE a GM Mode Overhaul. I want the similar treatment that NBA2k13 had with its association mode.

Mid season Signings is also a plus. The controlling of ticket pricing and concessions, along with Advertisements and sponsorship.

really bad picture. looks like a retail reebok helmet. Also wearing older model reebok gloves, as the most current generation doesn't have the reebok vector logo on the cuff of gloves. Complete nit-picking... but thats a bad look from ea. haha bad first 'glimpse'.

[Simple Mathematics]

I want the following:

1. BaGM improvements
2. Gameplay improvements, specifically the AI
3. Presentation improvements, specifically the commentary and stat overlays

I really don't care about new equipment updates and all that stuff until the 3 things above get some love.

Hoping they have the option to import gm connected rosters from NHL 13

Re: NHL 14 Features to be Revealed on Monday April 15th with Trailer and Release Date

I seriously kill my self if the big reveal has something to do with EASHL, HUT or other online gaming.

Please, EA, how bout new skating engine for goalies too? Time to re-write the goalies behaviour. Also would love to see other official and two linesmen on the ice. And same snap shots and fights like 2K.

And one more thing: CREATION CENTRE for NHL. How difficult is it? FIFA already have this for 2 years now, we, the NHL players, also like to create our own teams, jerseys, players and tournaments.

- Ability to view stats, awards, rosters of all players and teams, including retired
- Goalie fatigue
- Ability to push/shove/fight after the whistle

I hope they've done something with BE A PRO, that mode is really lacking depth.

Gameplay related, I hope they've changed the puck physics. I feel if the puck physics were realistic, the gameplay would flow so much better. Passing would be better, shooting would be more realistic and so on.
