Check out this article from Operation Sports! They have a hands on preview of NHL 24 with a few more details of the game. There’s pictures of some of the new controls too.

@TasteofChicago91 The article also goes into presentation stuff and I can’t tell if it is saying that full presentation is coming back? It mentions that replays are back which would indicate that it is. Plus there is a photo of a camera angle that says “true broadcast legacy” so does that mean there are two different tv broadcast angles??
here is the quote from the article:
” it’s been a lack of replays, aging commentary, and just a lack of “juice” that’s been more felt since the split from NBC. I don’t think this year feels like a wholesale change, but the new goal presentation is much more cinematic, and we are finally getting some more replays of things like big hits and so on during stoppages in the action. The commentary and TV-style elements of flare still have a ways to go, but much like the gameplay, this feels like the NHL team waking from its slumber and thinking long and hard again about how to best improve what’s here year over year.And, okay, yes I am burying the lede here by posting a picture of the True Broadcast Legacy camera now being back in the game but only now mentioning it. There is also another True Broadcast camera in there as well so you will have two options for that TV-style view if you want to play on that again (and, yes, I do want to play from that view thank you very much). At the time of this writing, I don’t know if there is a “no skip” presentation style in the game where whistle to whistle everything is captured, but I would guess that still won’t be in the game since I think that comes down to re-investing in the tech/animations for that, which maybe has never been returned to since the changeover to Frostbite.”
I hope this is the sign offline players are looking for in seeing full presentation make a return 🙏🏻
also from the article:
“I am worried about the goalies right now. I’m not sure if it’s the fatigue engine or the general goalie tuning right now, but they are flopping around like crazy right now. In a sense, it’s cool because EA has added a lot of new desperation saves so seeing the goalie on his belly but still moving his arm to make a save on a shot looks killer at times. However, the goalies also seem to just be flopping into desperation mode for no reason at times”
@TasteofChicago91 I am curious to see the gameplay myself to judge that
Desperation save frequency should be a slider for each individual goalie. Some goalies revert to diving easier than others.
