Calling my team the wrong name! Please fix

The announcer is always calling my team the Tuscan road runners! I am the Detroit Red Wings. It's very annoying. It does it 99% of the time! Even in wild card and hut. Please fix asap EA. The hut rewards is bad enough this year.  At least call my team by the correct team name.

    Still doing it. Not "Blackhawks" or "Hawks" as I have tried to change it multiple times. Whatever these announcers say here, this is not in any of the available audio options. Video: https://youtu.be/0oF3dKs2qxM

  • I had the same issue when I switched arenas. When I switched back to my original arena the announcers got my team name right again

    This works. I changed arenas a couple of times, and this resolved the issue. It would be cool if we could just choose our fave home arena from the get-go, but that'll probably be an exciting "new feature" in 26.

    I can post videos here later if necessary, but I can right away describe what the problem is. 

    Calling the wrong team depends on the arena in use. From my observations, this only applies to bronze and silver arenas (a friend of mine uses the Pittsburgh Penguins arena and James says "Pittsburgh"). And this only applies to the names of the team's town/country, not nicknames. For example, if the bronze Val-d'Or Foreurs arena is set up, James calls "Griffins" (Grand Rapid). The bronze Trois-Rivières Lions arena gives "Oulun" and "Kärpät" alternately and the silver arena Hartford Wolf Pack gives "Team Kazakhstan".  I don't have any other arenas to check, but I'm sure they all have the wrong commentary names, no matter what logo is set. The set team logo does not matter. So it seems that this year, for some unknown reason, it is the arenas that influence the team name, and not the logo, as has been the case for years. In addition, the nicknames set in the team's audio settings give the correct calls, e.g. Canucks gives "The Canucks", but in the Wolf Pack arena you will hear "The Kazakstan" and "The Canucks" alternately.

  • I've tried switching to whatever arenas I have as well and the announcers will eventually go back to calling the team by a different name in Squad Battles and Wild Card...

    As a Blackhawks fan I normally never agree with a Red Wings fan. My Blackhawks have been called the Scranton Penguins, Brantford Bulldogs, and even a team called [Örebro which I cannot pronounce.  These happen on home games when I do not use the default EA arena. We spent enough money on the game. Release our home areas (United Center) and let us use our correct team names please.
