Here is the online innovation article. First part is all about HUT. No really major changes that will make you want to play more.

EASHL changes are cool. I like this screen shot that now shows you points earned or loss, rather then us having no idea how close we are to going to the next rank.

One major thing now for goalies is, it is seperated from your player card. So you can't just play 150 games as a forward/defence and get your legend card and apply it to your goalie. You need to play 150 games as a goalie. lol Good luck on that one. I think combined in 3 years I've played 40-50 goalie games.

I hope user goalie is fun enough to play it all year.

This isn't the big announcement though, is it? :shifty:

Or at all haha. The EASHL changes sound good, although I haven't changed my players attributes in months, I have him set up as a power forward but I still play wing and D.

The big announcement is the online communities like madden.

I doubt that.

This year I found it didn't matter. I set my guy up and played both. Years passed I found it mattered a little more. But I guess the big thing is also wing and centre. Because there is a fairly good change when you go from RW to C. If I'm RW, I'm not jaking faceoff and a few other things. Just will be nice all around to set shit up and not have to keep doing it over and over. I wish they would also change it so you can tweak it. Like don't lock it in. If I go back to the attributes screen, let me slide things around and get points back without having to set things to a different skill, then back to the other one and start again.

I have a sick feeling that it is, because of the white board, Communities is the only thing that doesn't have any info. I see no chance at an OD this year, and I highly doubt they did anything to the league set up which is a damn shame.

Probably not gonna scoop. I bought NHL 11 late (like in February of this year). I'll probably use petrpuck to make the key prospects, do the offseason movement by myself, and go from there. I probably won't buy another NHL game until they get a legitimate online dynasty mode.

That Ultimate Team thing is fun for a while, but it's way too hard to build up teams. Especially when people are allowed to pay money irl to buy better players and such. Just takes the fun out of it when every team you play is loaded with superstars.

Thats the whole point.. to get people to feel like they need to pay.. so they pay to compete.
