NHL 13 Screenshot Teases Something is Around the Corner... What is it?

[Steve_OS]

EA Sports posted this NHL 13 screenshot on their Facebook page, asking people to "like" the screenshot if they want to find out what it means for NHL 13.

Have any ideas?

updated European jerseys. It's Giroux taking the faceoff as Eisbaren Berlin.

don't think I've ever seen a ref wear a white helmet before.

looks like updated European rosters including locked out NHLers....can't think the NHL would be too happy about that inclusion though LOL

White ref helmet? I'm guessing ref mode. Maybe they're sick of us complaining about lack of penalties. EA to consumers: "Call your own damn penalties."

Maybe all refs on the ice. That would be nice; like (NHL2K10)

Probably has nothing to do with the referee. Ea mentioned that due to current gen limitations, they decided to only have 1 ref on the ice cause it would cause the game to slow down. It has to be a roster update.

In the DEL the refs are wearing white helmets...

Its a roster update with the nhl players on their respective european teams..except for the KHL since they hate America

Not sure what it is, but could the crowd look more bored? 90% of them have their heads down, and only a handful are actually looking towards the play. Guess it must really suck to live in Philly......

Europe is a good guess, but the crowd is still sporting Philly jerseys.
Cross matching games but that's not new

I put this up yesterday and one person responded and then Steve puts it up today and 10 responses. I suck haha. I really hope they don't update rosters with guys on their lockout teams even if they are just duplicates. And BeARef mode would be useless in my opinion.

I want ref mode. With grades on positioning and cal strength.

But the Euro rosters are coming as soon as the season gets canceled. I don't have Facebook somebody like that for me even though I am morally opposed to liking anything online for popularity.

The faceoff has two Giroux. One on the Flyers the other on his Euro team. Zoom in on the photo.
