Can't wait for Leafs and Habs reveal.Bobby Orr would be awesome as well.

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

Just please get all players for each team although I’m very very skeptical. If I had to guess, it will be allowing the 5 or 6 alumni to join their respective team only and not a full team. I pray I’m wrong.

This may be the 90s kid in me, but they need to be wearing the Robo Penguin jerseys.

Sent from my XT1650 using Operation Sports mobile app

Coffey never wore that jersey, either. He was traded away when they wore the black and Pittsburgh yellow and would have a visor on and a should be wearing the “A”.

Jagr never wore that helmet in Pittsburgh, either.

This whole thing just seems half-arsed.

My guess is there won't be any new jerseys from the past. The early 90s Pens jerseys are in but with a patch, so they probably thought: "F... it, we just go with the early 00s unis". Pretty sure other cool jerseys like the Kachinas or the Sabreheads or the navy Whalers won't be in. They just go with what's already in the game for years. For equipment it will be the same.

And if I had to bet, I'd say there are 5-6 alumni players per team, not full historical rosters. Half-arsed as pretty much anything they do.

It’s nit only the Jerseys, player helmets. The boring goalie masks are since years the same.

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

A full functioning Franchise with all the alumni’s and scoring cranked up is very appealing to me. Lemieux is my all time favorite guy so the thought of chasing a 150+ point season with other guys in the league doing the same would be awesome. I hope that the mid-00s pens jerseys aren’t the only ones avail to the Pens because if I can’t have the robo-pen Unis I want the early 90s with the black and athletic gold not the Vegas gold stuff. I haven’t bought a NHL since 2015 (so NHL 16 was my last one) because I hated having 125-130 with Crosby and no one else in the league cracking 100+. I heard that there’s a setting for that this year’s and with the addition of the legends it has me intrigued.

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

No roster share, no player separation, and no improvements made to the AI.....once the luster wears off from the additions to franchise mode and the additions of legends the anger will set in on everyone but EA will already have snatched your coin.....

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

Really EA... Gartner is a Caps legend. For this the Caps better be getting Langway, Hunter, Bondra, and Kolzig (and Oates, but he will most likely be a Bruins legend)

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

When the trial goes live can someone post the alumni teams rosters?

Well, since Chelios is on Detroit and Chicago, it's likely Gartner and Oats will be on a few teams....

Re: NHL 20 Will Feature 33 Playable Alumni Teams - Available in Play Now & Franchise

So downloaded and logging in from my phone at work. The rosters are full, on the Jets are guys like Tkachuk, Babych, Ellett, Steen etc.

Thing is, all their ages are their real life ones....can't seem to edit in edit player as birth years are blacked out.

Hope there is a way around this...typical EA.

Will check more when I get home...lol all legends will retire after one year in franchise.

Thanks for posting.

I can’t believe the devils roster doesn’t have Brodeur, Elias, or Stevens.
