Will Edmonton fans throw jerseys now that their team isn't ridiculous in 1v1?

They will realistically wave in the breeze as they fall to the ice thanks to DCT.

And with the highly detailed crowd models and NBC style presentation, you'll get to see security escort the guy away before Kevin Lowe holds a press conference calling him a poor fan.

Pucks will still bounce off the goalie's glove straight into the air, drop down onto their back and roll into the net though.

I've been hoping for the KHL to be added for years now so it'll never happen because EA hates me.

Re-added. Remember, in the first EASHL game, the KHL was in there, because the Killdozers used (ironically enough) the Lokomotiv as their team.

Something else I get out of that pic:

They are playing the Coyotes. They still have fans wearing TeamAlt3.jersey based on the old school Jets jerseys.

Or maybe they're playing the Jets and coded in the people who have old Jets jerseys when they watch the new Jets (who also traveled to San Jose to do so since Jumbo is in a home jersey).

Occam's razor indicates instead that they are Coyotes fans in San Jose and EA did not really think through that Phoenix fans in California are unlikely to be wearing Jets jerseys from the 90s.

My quick count shows 9 out of the 27 visible fans (33%!) with some ridiculous kind of facepaint, just like real NHL games! Some of those could be luchador masks though so you gotta give them the benefit of the doubt.

That's a Yotes jersey so yes they just went "fans can wear any jersey how authentic" and the Coyotes will have a bunch of old school Jets fans following them around.

Can't wait to see all the Thrasher jerseys when visiting the MTS Centre...

Won't happen since the old Atlanta owners won't release the jerseys for use.

I highly doubt the NHL let them keep that after what they went through with the Whalers.

I've got ten imaginary bucks here that says they still end up using some/a bunch of the old opening and skate-out animations.



And it's just not the true NHL pre-game experience if you don't have to sit through 30 minutes of the flaming and pulsating ice projections and national anthems in Montreal.

Or 10 minutes of lovely CGI locker rooms and laborious stitching of Chicago's racist sweater logo.

It would be funny if they spent thousands of man hours recreating the pregame light show for every team in the league, and then all of us spam the A button trying to get past it asap.

Unless they're now implementing Dynamic Ref Technology™

Admittedly that'd be pretty cool if to call a penalty one of the refs had to have line of sight on the play. It would lead to all kinds of shenanigans trying to get away with stuff whilst the refs have their backs turned. I could finally have the true virtual Milan Lucic experience!

This would likely ruin the online experience as, not only will people score glitch goals on you constantly, they'll take every opportunity to break your arm when the ref gets stuck in the corner staring at a wall.

As an internet scrub, I greatly enjoy all of the cut-scenes, even if you don't. As you angrily mash X from your armchair, you can rest assured that I'm comfortably unemployed, undereducated and have all the time in the world to experience everything EA Sports has to offer.

Am I simply unaware that you can skip cut-scenes/replays? Am I too busy treating my mother like a kitchen wench? The world may never know.
