Absolutely there should be both Ireland and Northern Ireland. Also Wales should be there. I really hope that @EA_Aljo and creators of NHL videogame understand, that location list should update. They did great job, when they update "play by play name" list to the NHL 22.

When we create players and managers to the FC 24, we have in use country / region list where is all countries. This kind country/ region list would be awesome add to the NHL 25. It could include all countries, regions, US states and Canadian provinces and territories.

@Juhani_91_91True. We also have:
Madrid, but no Spain
Israel, but no Palestine (any explanation for that, EA? Must I add anything to the reasons why you guys suck?)
Lisbon, but no Portugal
Bangladesh and Trinidad and Tobago in city, but not origin
Great Britain in city, but England in origin (?)

Yeah this is strange. For example Estonia will be found in "place of origin" list, but not in locations list. But then Congo DR will be found in "place of origin" list. It's nice that we will have wide collection countries in "place of origin" list, but why there to be countries like Congo DR, Fiji and Bangladesh, which not be any hockey countries. Sure is cool that we would have similar "place of origin" list in NHL 25, what we've "country/ region" list in FC 24. I mean that all countries and in addition US states and Canadian provinces and territories. For example when I create Will Smith to NHL 24, I choose Lexington from locations list and Massachusetts from place of origin list. If I create Teemu Pulkkinen, whom birthplace not will be found in location list, I choose Finland from locations list and place of origin list. We really need updated locations list.

@EA_Aljo
Here are a few examples of why we need an updated location list for NHL 25.
Vantaa is the fourth largest city in Finland. For example, Finnish NHL players Valtteri Filppula, Tuomo Ruutu, Sami Kapanen and Ville Peltonen were born in Vantaa
All cities, which will become NHL team not be in the current locations list. For example Sunrise will be not found in the list
Gävle, Karlstad and Örnsköldsvik will be found in the locations list, if language version is swedish. In other language versions those cities has been replaced by names Brynäs, Färjestad and Modo.
@EA_Aljo
We've hoped many years, that EA Sports update locations list. EA Sports did great job, when they update "play by play name" list to the NHL 22. Now the same should be done for location list. I have listed to this topic all cities, which cities should be add .
