I'm pretty sure EA doesn't have an exclusive license with the NHL, it's just that nobody bought the 2K games so they voluntarily stopped making them.

No, the NFL has given EA exclusive license. The 2K hockey games just didn't sell well enough to compete with EA, and went severely downhill in quality after about NHL 2k5, so they stopped making them. Can't really sue when there exists a possibility for more and nobody wishes to make it

A.I. should engage like their player types
A.I. should take less penalties
A.I. should almost never go offsides
A.I. should manage offensive blue lines much better
A.I. should actually engage defensively instead of imitating backskating pylons
A.I. should not have different rules (no pass charge when users do/unrealistic speedboosts)
A.I. should not be line changing on odd-man breaks
A.I. should always change lines and not glitch out
A.I. goalies should adapt to repetitive shots
A.I. defenders should adapt to repetitive plays
Goalies should cover posts much better
Goalies need to be much less awkward with the puck
Goalies need to be much less awkward with skating
Goalies need to be much less awkward with passing
Goalies, that belong in the NHL, should almost never get beat on an unscreened flop shot attempt
Player differentiation
Bring back Vision control
Still skate while stickhandling
Player animations show when tired
Player attributes decrease when tired
Players tire when playing big minute games
Players need longer recovery when playing long shifts
Shots from the outside should require higher accuracy to hit
Your player should focus on the puck while stickhandling/dekeing with lower related stats
When focusing on the puck while stickhandling/dekeing the more susceptible you are to injuries
Should be able to absorb hits
Grinding out puck dump ins shouldn't be so awkward
Endurance should matter in fighting skating dekeing and shooting
It shouldn’t be Easier to get a SH than a PP goal, something code wise is broken
All dekes should be effective if done at the proper time in the proper way with the proper attributes
All dekes should be ineffective if done at the improper time in an improper way with improper stats
Give auto, cycle, and manual (RT + RS aim towards the player you wish to select ) options for player selection
Modified attributes relative to the injury in-game and out
Play through Injuries (more susceptible to becoming more severely injured)
Needs to police forums to allow for addressing product concerns
Encourage sportsmanship
Punish unsportsmanlike play
The “reward system†in this game does nothing but encourage bad play/sportsmanship while simultaneously discouraging good play/sportsmanship.
