NHL needs a trello board
I think it’ll be a great idea for EA NHL to have a trello board, you’ve got one for Apex Legends and it’s a good way for us to see what’s being working on and what’s ready to be released and also wha...

@KidShowtime1867 I'd imagine the primary concern would be how to keep HUT going without the yearly reset when the new game comes out. New game sales certainly play a part, but UT is where the real money is for EA's sports games.
I doubt the player base would be thrilled with having their collection wiped out or otherwise made useless without a "new" game to go with it. But EA would need to somehow keep people on that power creep treadmill indefinitely to keep them buying packs for new cards.
I doubt the monthly subscription approach would go over well. There's not a lot of that left in the industry. Probably a 'battle pass' approach would be more palatable, but they'd need to come up with some way of monetizing it. The cosmetics currently in the game are underwhelming to say the least. Although if it becomes a more primary revenue generator maybe they'd spend more time and money on them.
I think if we set the expectation that teams would be reset annually, it wouldn't be as much of an issue. I like the battle pass approach though.
