NHL SERVERS!/New Servers
Can anybody tell me where all the NHL servers are located? Apparently there is a new North Central Server, Is this in Canada and where abouts if so?

Community ManagerThe difference in ping is due to the distance to the server you end up on. Except for Online Versus. That's peer to peer so you're not on our servers. You or your opponent are the host. For EASHL, you're on the server that meets the average pings of the players in the game. For example, mine hovers around 60ms because my club is based in the NE US while I'm in the southern US. With HUT, you should end up on the server that is closest to you, but if you're several hundred miles from that, your ping will be higher than if it was a lot closer.
How bad is the delay? Are you noticing any or are you just basing this on your ping? A 53 ms ping is still good so you're really not at a big disadvantage.
I notice a big difference. There are guys playing on eashl that are getting 10 MS or better, the guy I play with is 6 hours south of me with upload and download speeds lower then mine, and gets 35 MS consistently, him playing with the same build as me as a player skates quite a bit faster, and his reaction time is better because mine is delayed. I even notice a big difference from 53-55 ms to 45.
