God damn I cannot wait for NHL15. I skipped 14, after finally realizing 11,12 and 13 were practically the same game, but this.. this is going to be something.

Demo must only be a couple of weeks away, right?

Ever since I sold my 360 a few years ago I've been dying to play NHL. I'm so pumped for NHL15 that I went out and bought an xbone. Might find a club to join or start my own. But for sure I'll be spending lots of time on Be A GM.

About two weeks before the release date. If you default to the ea 15 thread there is a bunch of info on the new game this year.

I got an Xbox 1 and this game cannot come fast enough. If you're into the ultimate team, if you get the ultimate edition you get 40$ in ea pucks.

I can't wait for this game. I skipped 14 too since I knew I was gonna sell the PS3 to ease the pain on the cost of a PS4. Boy was that a stupid decision.

I remember one trade I made a few years ago was Gormley for Patrick Kane. I ended up trading Kane because he wasn't working out. After a few players later, I realized it was stupid to get rid of Gormley and restarted my season. :(

What's the point of trading away practically the whole coyotes roster to form a a dream team that barely resembles the orginal?

At any rate, NHL GM mode is for scrubs, FHM or EHM 2007 all the way.

Same here, I skipped NHL 14 as well. I bought an Xbox One but wanted to wait for an actual next gen experience and it's sounding like NHL 15 might actually deliver that.

I'd really like to get back into playing in leagues, it's a blast if you're lucky enough to get into a good league with a good commish. The problem is usually people want to create 20-30 team leagues which is almost always a mistake. Hell it's hard enough to have a strong dedicated 10 team league much less double or triple that many teams. Bigger leagues usually just means a lot more flakes!

This is the first video game I've purchased in about ten years, and I bought it mostly for the Be a GM mode. I tried to take a relatively conservative approach at first but quickly got sick of how this team was built and went in a totally different direction. I still wanted to build around some actual Coyotes, though, so the additions are mostly supporting cast type of players. I just finished year three, and my Stanley Cup winning lineup was:

Max Domi - Jordan Staal - Mikkel Boedker
Brandon Dubinsky - Mikko Koivu - Charlie Coyle
Lucas Lessio - Martin Hanzal - Shane Doan
Brian Boyle - Brandon MacMillan - Henrik Samuelsson

Oliver Ekman-Larsson - Keith Yandle
Brandon Gormley - Michael Stone
Barrett Jackman - Tom Gilbert

Is this one of the games you can get into more physically, like with a controller hockey stick? I had a Wii for a bit a few years ago but sold it. I play computer games but I was thinking about checking out the new systems and see if they've improved what Nintendo had going with the golf, baseball and soccer games to name a few. They could be fun especially if you had a few people over and you could end up getting in a decent work out if you were into the game at all.

EA have pretty much shown something from every team except the Coyotes. Maybe they aren't even in the game :sarcasm:

Coyotes
Sharks
Panthers
Canadiens
Maple Leafs
Sabres
Devils
Capitals
Blue Jackets
Hurricanes
Islanders
Blackhawks

The BOH and main board are using it as evidence of Coyotes relocation.


Just kidding, actually I didn't check but I wouldn't doubt it.

Where'd you find that? And I thought this game was going to have authentic player likeness. I don't recognize anybody from this screen shot lol
It was the background image from one of the achievements. There was a larger version of it, and the only player I could make out was OEL, who I think is in the middle at the back. Otherwise, yeah, don't know who the two at the front are supposed to be :laugh:

Trying to find the original imagine now. It was much larger.

HERE we go. My mistake, OEL on the far left. Perhaps some horrible attempt at Erat at the front, and Vermette on the right?

Back left helmet number is single digit, looks like either 6 or 4, but Michalek had an authentic face in '14 so my guess is Schlemko. Also Schlemko wears a Reebok bucket. Front center is definitely Erat, number 10 and looks like him. Though they didn't give him the tinted visor. Front right can't be Vermette since he also had an authentic face in '14 that looked really good, and that is the same "default" face that was used for Klinkhammer last year. CCM bucket and gloves match up, and jersey number on sleeve looks like it could be a six, so 36=Klinkhammer. Based on helmet brand, double digit number on helmet, and look of the face I'd say back middle is OEL.

That default face on the right player is one I recognize from last year because they used it on Klinkhammer AND Vrbata and that was really annoying. Figured Coyotes would get no love.
