All their pre-order or learn more pages are 404'd. Nice job guys.

First freaking shot of the trailer shows a game with completely empty benches. 99% of the trailer is just showing the same goalie animations and stupid dekes for years. Everything looks the same as NHL21 except with some newer faces, different lighting. Only thing I'm hopeful for is that the crowd looked a lot better than 21 and maybe they really amped up the atmosphere which would be a major improvement.

I mean, this is just...a really bad trailer? Like really bad? Compared to Madden or FIFA this looks like an intern's rough cut.

This dev team, man.

I really enjoyed NHL21 and expect the next-gen version of the game to feel different for sure but these guys are just terrible at marketing.

Also just realized Matthews has been on the cover 2 of the last 3 years. These guys just let the jokes write themselves. Incredible.

Auston Matthews is the NHL 22 cover athlete.

It's pretty wild to think that when NHL 07 came out, this would end up being the basis for every NHL game for the rest of time.

Is this an NHL game or a Madden game? Cause all I see on their webpage is HUT, HUT, HUT!
