Yeah, not a fan. It's not very in depth as far as the # of players involved, and I'm very skeptical considering it is roster related from EA, as far as them continuing to provide timely updates.... I mean speaking of timing, how long should people have to wait for accurate AHL/CHL rosters??? As usual they are failing miserably at this.

Its a joke, only for "play now" and online versus modes..what a joke.
i want this in Season Mode!
..sorry...very disappointed!

Don't get the complaining and whining about this update. The rosters now better reflect the current state of the NHL. Actually pleasantly surprised that they included the dynamic ratings in online versus play as well.

It's funny how the very day EA decided to put Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on a "cold streak" he proceeded to score 2 goals and 1 assist later that night.

I asked this on the EA forum but didn't get an answer. To get these dynamic ratings is there a roster update do get these? It's confusing to me.

Ben Bishop, similarly, was given a hot streak, then chased from net that same day by Boston.

What sense does it make to have them included in Season or GM? Unless, it was a totally seperate thing based on play during your season.
