I'm sorry, did I say Madden didn't have this?

That's exactly what I said lol

The reason would be that these are two entirely different development teams who use entirely different infrastructure. Madden is developed in Orlando, while NHL is developed in B.C.

I never said HUT was ahead of its time. I was saying the vision for GM Connected was ahead of its time what with the iOS app and the ability to have full team play. As evidenced by the inability of the underlying infrastructure to keep up, it was clear the mode was too ambitious and ahead of its time.

I don't think anyone has ever suggested removing World of Chel in favor of GM Connected. However, some kind of integration between the two would be absolutely awesome.
