    NHL 21 Roster Share Would Be Huge Win, So Why Does It Remain Absent?



    Every sports game needs a roster share or general "share" feature. But in a sport like...

      Great work, Chase. Would have liked you to explicitly state the need for virtual portraits for generated players as well as current players, even if that isn't share-feature related. That's really been bugging me since they made franchise worth playing again!

        Hey Oskar, who do you think you are telling me what to put in my article? I'll let Triple H do the talking for me here:

        When somebody goes, 'Well, you just can't get people over with 50/50 booking,' [I'll always say] 'Oh, I'm sorry, how's your territory coming?

            Something else I always wanted - give us the ability to edit rosters from an app on our phone. I would use this like crazy!

              Great job on the article.

              As I have pointed out many times over the years, EA must not realize that by not adding roster share or being able to use current saves on the new edition of the game you are making people really look at the new game with a microscope. To see if the game has improved enough to buy the new game and spend weeks editing rosters or starting careers or franchises over again. Luckily this year sounds like it is worth it but i can't say the same for the other past years. I spend so much time editing rosters that I now wait until the trade deadline rosters to come out before i buy the newest game, just so I am editing the roster with all the rookies in the game. Therefore i never pay full price for the game, but if there was roster sharing i would buy as soon as there was a good roster to download

                No roster sharing means no Dollars from me.

                  I pray to all that is holy, they add this soon... This and bringing back music customization for arenas...
                  If you keep bowing down and praising the developers, (NHL series) nothing they give us the consumer will ever be a "finished" product. Take a stand, it is your money!!!.

                    I didn’t buy this game for the first time in 10 years. This is the exact reason why.

                      Agreed 100%. Would also like the ability to edit attributes during a season like Madden or The Show. That way we can keep up with the ever fluctuating attributes of players instead of having to start a franchise all over when new attributes are released

                        I haven't owned a hockey game in decades but I have been getting back into hockey the last couple of years. I was actually ready to purchase NHL 21. The biggest problem with the game is no 31 team setting. I hate how the CPU runs the teams and I like to keep it a little realistic and match the current season. I don't understand why this feature has not made it into NHL 21 either.

                            If they give us roster sharing, I’m going to throw a proposal out there:

                            Cycloniac, Alkostopolus, Shanster - what do you say we get together and make the best rosters ever? Maybe we can get Shogun too. I’ll reach out to Puckhead from the Revamped days again too.

                              LOL... I wouldn't hold your breath its NOT going to happen for HOCKEY anyway..

                              Neither is connected GM.. There in no way for EA to make money by adding those features for offline players.

                              MICRO TRANSACTIONS are the only revenue stream for any game makers
