With the NHL trade deadline just around the corner (February 29), EA Sports has released another NHL 16 roster update. No details were revealed, so let us know what you're seeing.

I noticed ghost, panarin, and Larkin got a bump

Weird they released this when the trade deadline in Monday. Could have just held it until then.

That would have been the smart thing to do. And that's why they didn't. Haha. Watch, now we won't get the next roster until playoffs.

Larkin beat the speed record at the all star game and is blazing fast.. He has an 85 speed still. Come on guys

Makes you wonder how closely the developers actually follow the NHL. Did they know there is a trade deadline on Monday?

Seems like they could've saved themselves a lot of work if they just waited a few days: made one roster update instead on now having to make a second one.

Well, I for one think it's a pretty smart move. Their roster is now up-to-date and ready to be revised as per what happens at the deadline. This will give them more time to focus on trade deadline moves and get the next update out quicker.

Not sure why everyone is complaining about this? There's no way they don't come out with a deadline version.

I wonder if it's to give people the option to have the proper rosters before the deadline, so they can decide who they want to go where when it does conclude?
