WE NEED CONNECTED FRANCHISE IN NHL26!

Question

&nbsp;Ive spent over 57 days on NHL25 so I am a very committed NHL25 player and a die hard hockey fan. I get the game every year but this is the last straw for me this year.&nbsp;WE NEED CONNECTED FRANCHISE!&nbsp;Plase EA I'm begging you. It's been over a decade since we've been able to play against a friend online for a Stanley Cup... Imagine that! I can't play against my friend for the Stanley Cup in franchise mode, IN AN NHL VIDEO GAME! All of EA's other sports titles have an online franchise mode and those games are all more successful than NHL.... My friends and I are all super hopeful we can finally get this mode in NHL26 and I promise you EA the SECOND that this mode is announced to be back my friends and I will ALL pre-order the game. Otherwise we'll wait for the boxing week sale... For us to be able to be the GM of our favorite teams and use custom rosters for an in depth and realistic ONLINE franchise mode and truly compete for the Stanley Cup I would be willing to trade in my freaking car.... Please EA Please 🥺&nbsp;&nbsp;- A hopeful hockey fan.&nbsp;

Likelihood of this being added? Also In addition to NHL 26 news can you please let me know if more players will have the new ai generated face scans in NHL 26? This years rookies(at least top 10 draft picks and last years(all of them missing)? Also can you please rely that many Buffalo Sabres are missing face scans including Jack Quinn(39 points) . Now that they have the ai generated face scan tool with generic hair it should be easy to add almost every single player while only giving true scans to &nbsp;players worthy? I just really hope they didn't just add that all last year and are not going to add more this year. It should be something they build on correct?
