Community ManagerI get what you're saying, but this would not be a quick, 10 minute addition. Regardless, I don't have any new information on this. I've passed on the feedback and will let you all know if I have any news.
@EA_Aljo Well, that is something that I would need to have explained to me for me to believe. The helmets and players are already scripted separately, which is why we can see our players without helmets at times:

You slap in a button for the no sign, circle with a slash through it, that you already use for other things in the game (see mouthguards, visors, etc), have that return a value of 0, and then throw in a
if (player.helmetoption != 0) {
before the script to make them skate off the ice if they lose their helmet. Of course, you add the closing bracket at the end of that script. For someone familiar with the code, I cannot see it taking them the full 10 minutes.

Granted that I may be early in on the Dunning-Kruger scale when it comes to programming. I took it in high school almost 25 years ago and one course in college before the loss of conio.h and the professor's description of programming as translation made me lose interest. There may be plenty behind the scenes that I am not considering - but unless those things are explained to me I'm not going to believe it.

The feature itself is obviously already implemented in WoC. A lot of the hard work is already done so that saves a lot of time. However, adding it to other parts of the game means integrating it into those screens, making menus work properly, going through testing, etc. It's something that would take a lot more than 10 minutes. This is why I always say it's very rare something is quick and easy to add.
- @EA_Aljo Thanks for the feedback.
With the addition of Roster Sharing, being able to create helemtless players would be awesome for offline users and probably create some Viral videos with some of the rosters created.
We even got YouTube star The Hockey Guy to give his approval for this option.
