This so much. Most of my EASHL team from back in the day has moved on to other games, which is sad because theyre all big hockey fans, but people just cant deal with this game anymore. Me and one or two friends try to play once a week or so but its always a struggle. We win, but its just not enjoyable. Everything is just a big cluster****.

FIFA is now releasing information before the NHL series.

The World’s Game.
First Look: June 5, 2017
#FIFA18

Make that Madden, Nba Live, FIFA, 2K Basketball, and WWE 2k18 which is released well after NHL to be announced before NHL 18.

They also refuse to answer any questions regarding what is going on from fans on twitter, EA boards, etc.

It might be because FIFA has competition with PES.
They're forced to be more proactive.

Okay no info this is troubling. I guess the good news in this is that E3 is only a week away so it will be answered pretty quickly.

They might have an embargo placed against them to not release any media with the new jerseys or the LV team until after the sweater reveal and the expansion draft. It would make a lot of sense, but I really don't understand why EA wouldn't communicate that to the fans.

Thanks for this, unfortunately this is from February and some of this is incorrect.

UFC 3 is releasing next year and not this year, so that already makes this inaccurate. Things may have changed with the NHL series. Granted, I believe it will come out this year, however it is troubling that it feels every other series have announced and transitioned to their '18 series and moved on from their '17 products. Just take a look at twitter if you or anyone else has it. All of the EA products say their '18 games, even 2k basketball and WWE 2k18 have done this. Only one who hasn't? EA NHL
