    Sportcenter type presentation eg weekly roundup, plays of the week etc. I know this because it was leaked to me by an "insider".

    It's about time they implemented this, I can't wait to see how it looks.

    Just kidding. I wish this was true though.

          From what I've seen in the demo, they aren't.

          2 things: When I was playing the Battle for the Cup CHI/PHI matchup, there was a cutscene on the Chicago bench that showed the players and the coach. The coach still was the same generic looking one from past years.

          The other thing is in the Ultimate Team tutorial video, the coaching card the guy unlocks is some fake coach. I think it's a pic of a dev team guy with some random name.

            Looking forward to being a GM mode.
            Only respectable people deserve respect, you destroyed the game.

              Maybe not the character of a real coach, but maybe "coaches" that will give different attribute boosts to your team? We are, after all, the GM's and seem to be doing a lot of "coaching" as well in BEaGM. Shouldn't we sign a "coach" for that.

              An example I've used before might be to be able to have the coach "handle" your team more from a strategy standpoint once we "discuss" that with our new coach...
              - like throw the right line out against scorers
              - throw the grinders out more when you get a lead
              - yank the goalie more when things get out of hand
              - even have a coach for the AHL affiliate that you could groom for the NHL
              - AND have that guy make sure he plays ALL your players throughout the season so that you get maximum growth out of prospects
              - play with line combinations to get optimum performance based on past record
              ...you know...coach stuff!

              Oh ya...and FIRE the guy if he sucks, so that I can save my OWN job as GM in the owners eyes

              Either way, I'm salivating at the thought of 11.

                So is that all that's new and exciting for BaP? 7 draft rounds and more leagues to play in? BaP is my favorite mode, but it's getting kind of stale. There needs to be training and more outside of gametime stuff.

                      In the demo's help menu it says, in BAPro, "You will make decisions on and off the ice that will affect your career" What does this mean I wonder . . . Certainly this couldn't just be referring to clicking x button to sign your new contract!

                      I'm guessing there will be some sort of extra-curricular interaction off ice as a BAPro a la the older Maddens and NCAA BApro modes. How sick would that be eh?

                        Or maybe even getting to weigh in on where you get traded, and how much you want for your pay.
                        Maybe even the ability to take a pay cut to stay with a team.

                          7 rounds doesn't mean anything if the scouting continues to be piss-poor, and the players don't improve. Simulate 10 years and you might not have a player rated in the 90s.

                            It says in the help menu that they re-did the rookie generation to match real-world tendencies.

                              I always had the opposite problem, the new top picks constantly became the top scorers and performers in the league.

                                All I hope for is that the sim engine is improved. If it's true to life this year, then I will probably spend copious amounts of time on this game.
