Just wondering, if we get this in NHL11....................

How much roster support are we really going to get????????

Probably not much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well we got about 16 updates this year, I would say that is pretty decent roster support. If they match of beat that next year I'll be happy.

I am not excited about this. They already have European teams in the game and it's not like they add anything of any substance to the game.

European teams IMO are the only good part about EA's series. The RSL in 09 was one of the best things I've seen, even though they lost those rights. I still play that game just for its European leagues.

Just imagine, having rookies be drafted in BAGM and if your AHL roster is full put them back in the CHL for development, I don't think anyone else though of that

Surprised no one mentioned that if they add juniors we can actually have a realistic draft. Even if they are generic names/numbers you can edit them (hopefully). Also you can keep guys you draft down in juniors instead of in the AHL. I'm probably in the minority but I get a lot of enjoyment out of playing with the European teams. I even play online with them against NHL teams. For me it just keeps the game fresh with all the variety of teams, much like FIFA.

Yeah but you can't utilize the Euro teams in BAP or GM so I just don't know what makes people think they'll let you do that with CHL teams.

It's all speculation at this point, but incorporating the CHL teams into BAP & GM mode would be the next logical step. But who knows what direction they'll take IF this happens.

This makes me so happy. I have always wanted to play as a dub team. Imagine road to the Mem cup.

Who's to say that won't implement that this year? We can only wait and see.

I for one hope the Be A GM mode is included with the OHL. Scouting for bantams and rebuilding your team every 3 years would be highly addictive.

How many more days before you head out QB?

CHL is also much more of an impact on the NHL than euro leagues. The majority of prospects come from there so it would be an ideal situation to have call-ups from the CHL.

If it is incorporated, i'm just glad I don't have to sign my draft pick immediately.

I think we may not get full integration into BAGM until NCAA is implemented.

Assuming all the concussions I received haven't impeded my ability to count... 12.

PS - Keep your head up!

Re: NHL 11 To Have CHL Teams? (WHL, OHL, QMJHL)

QB when you went out to see the otters play did you see a dman named Robyn Serdic

He doesnt play anymore due to concussion problems but he was a top dman on the team a few years ago

That's not really how it works. Basically teams choose not to send junior aged players to the AHL but rather send them back into the CHL. It has nothing to do with the AHL roster being full. Also, NHL teams usually won't keep a junior aged player in the NHL for more than 10 games unless they plan on keeping him for the whole season because after 10 games played it counts as a year of NHL service which factors into when the player can become a UFA.
