- Possibility choose colour of face mask to college helemet and hybrid shield
- New minimum height for created player, now minimum height 170 cm (5’7”). Big part of female players are under 170 cm (5’7”) tall. Forexample Lamoureux sisters Jocelyne and Monique, which played in team USA at many world championships and olympics are under 170 cm (5’7”) tall, Jocelyne and Monique Lamoureux are 168 cm (5’6”) tall. Another forexample is Japan team, in 2022 IIHFWomens Wordl Championships all Japan team player was under 170 cm (5’6”), shortest player was Remi Koyama 147 cm (4’10”) and the tallest players was 168 cm (5’6”). I can’t understand, why EA Sports not updated minimum height for created players, when they added female players to NHL 22. They probable knew that thing, that big part of players are under 170 cm (5’7”) tall.
- New hairstyles for female players. When you create female players, you can choose of 13 hair styles. When you create male player, you can choose hairstyle of 73 different hairstyle, but for female players is only 13 different hairstyles. For example ponytail hairstyle need add to game.
They have other hairstyles - we saw them in the preview - but they only appear in HUT on the players they were crafted for. Rather than taking the short time to make them options they chose to pretty much go out of their way to keep them to HUT only. It's like how you can play online without a helmet, but not offline; we are told it is unrealistic for us to use it when we can only possibly ruin the game for ourselves while online players can apparently ruin it for everyone else.
The minimum height thing is a great point - they really don't want to represent anything feminine in the game, despite the advertising.
