What are your biggest requests all? What would make this game better for you?

My wishlist:auction house: more filters - did you ever search for a goalie mask? Besides, why don´t have these cards a team name anymore?Rivals: there should be a database where you can view all your games (and opponents)each game should be fully recorded and savedmatchmaking:I don't believe in the randomness principle when it comes to matchmaking (there are streaks of games with the same goalkeeper, the same jerseys or club emblems, or from the same countries…). While searching for an opponent, it would be nice to have a matchmaking table where the search is displayed. On one side, my team would be shown, and on the other side, potential opponents would scroll throughAn overview of the players who are currently online, including their statistics and originWhy is the goalkeeper only allowed to change his mask? Why not also the pads? The players' movement patterns should be adapted to the game situationsWhen players come off the (penalty) bench and enter the game, it seems like they are only focused on getting to their position. If I'm not controlling the player, he will even try to skate into the offensive zone during a counterattack, even though the opponent already has the puck in the neutral zoneWhen the goalie plays the puck behind the net, he occasionally gets stuck on the goalpost when returning (even if I'm not controlling him myself)

Online Franchise is something we really want to bring back. I don't know if/when it will happen though.Here's the thing about the Winter Classic. It's a very expensive and resource heavy addition that doesn't get played much. It's something most people play once and move on from. We have to get the licensing for the arena and authentically replicate it. It's a pretty big expense for something that doesn't really get a lot of use. So, the money and resources that go into that can be put to better use in other, more popular, areas of the game. Hopefully, we'll have the bugs you're talking about addressed in the next game. Thanks for the feedback. It's genuinely appreciated.

For EASHL: rinks (rinks would be the coolest thing), AI teammate name/faces/skating and shooting style/celebrations, fan outfits, coach outfits. But I’d say gameplay additions like how your AI teammates play, where they should position themselves, how cautious they are, and being able to tell them where to shoot and not just when to shoot should be implemented before more hours are put into cosmetics.

Bring back the old EASHL store from NHL 23, end the one time indicator and pressure meter and bring back the old controls such as A to protect the puck and RB and RS to dump the puck automatically (I’m an Xbox Gamer). Also, better intros.

rockstar8080 You´re right, there are many positives for me too: I like the gameplay, I almost play HUT and love the challenges to earn good players for free.
