NHL series new creative director

Saw this on reddit. I'm not actually sure who the creative director is now. I know Rammer is a "producer" and Ben Ross is a "gameplay producer," but this is the same position Rex Dickson occupies on the Madden team.

I think it will be interesting to track none the less. This could go a lot of ways for this series. Especially with EA's want to emphasize esports (even mentioned in the job description).

Interesting, great find! I'm not sure if anyone has been referred to as the creative director on this series, though now I want to dig through the credits when I fire it up tonight and find out.

Either way though, I feel like at this point this can only be a good thing, assuming it means that there will be some fresh blood in prominent roles on the team. The series desperately needs a shake up and I can't think of any other way.

This has been desperately needed and hopefully we see the benefits in NHL 19. The game is just not progressing year to year like it should.

Fantastic find and news!

What would be amazing is if 2K Hockey is truly dead, I wish they could bring some of that team over to EA and work together to really make the NHL game we all want/deserve.

Cool news!!
This series needs a spark for sure, whether it's more attention to detail in graphics, or an overhaul in certain modes.
