The FIFA team is also much larger than the NHL, team.
I'm bummed the options aren't in the game, but I'd rather they get things right than a rushed, buggy version.
If gameplay and AI is improved, and with all of the extra power, the little things really enhance the game, I can forgive the missing extention functions (personally, I buy NHL games for the NHL game and use things like EASHL/OTP as a secondary attraction). It's if the gameplay is basically a port of last-gen gameplay with a slightly better gift wrapping that I'll be upset.
