Great podcast - http://www.puckpodcast.com/
The 30 minute interview starts from [56:00 - 86:30]

There is some bits of info that I learned from it (that have not been announced so far)

NEW INFO!:
- Presentation has been completely overhauled this year. EA has worked with a company that does all the graphics with ESPN, TSN. (ex: the new scoreboard tsn style)
- A new game mode that has not been revealed yet, Rammer has said that it is the most addictive mode to date that he has ever played on a game.
- No goalie fights...
- EA has tried to make every NHL arena as unique as possible to the real life one.
- New intros for all the teams in NHL 11
- Rammer gives a big hint that in this years Be a GM mode you will be able to give Offer Sheets to Restricted free agents (well find out more in 2 weeks)

I'm assuming that the addictive game mode is Online Franchise.

I hope in be a gm they fix the way free agents are done.

I really hope they tone down the progression though, thats pretty much the killer in offline.

Just started listening to this. Kinda when he basically said you can't turn off the broken sticks.

You can turn down the frequency though.

[leaffan]

You can turn down the frequency though.

I want to be able to turn them right off though.

To add on.

Rammer said you can play the Euro leagues in a franchise mode. They even have their unique playoff structures as well.

[Rudi]

Can't wait to see the presentation sounds like it should be sweet.

[Senators26]

He also said something about that you can sign in Europe in your BAP. Wonder if that will happen in Be a GM as well.
