NHL 27: 3 vs 3 game mode

EA_Aljo​ 
EA Sports added the "NHL Threes" game mode to NHL 18. It's a good game mode if you like playing arcade-style 3 vs 3 hockey without rules. EA Sports could finally add a game mode to NHL 27 where we can play 3 vs 3 hockey with real rules. NHL 26 has updated All-Stars teams, but they have a lot of extra players. The NHL All-Stars Game has been played in a 3 vs 3 format since the 2016-2017 season. Next season, the NHL All-Stars Game will be played in the familiar 3 vs 3 format, but instead of the usual inter-division tournament, this time the 3 vs 3 tournament will be played with a national team theme. It would be great to play with these All-Stars national teams in NHL 27, without extra players. Additionally, it would be nice to be able to create your own 3 vs 3 teams, with 11 players allowed per team. Hopefully we can finally get a game mode where we can play 3 vs 3 hockey with the right rules.

    this would also be a good way to get the all-star game as a playable event in the Be A Pro Mode EA_Aljo​. Just run a mini draft before the all-star break, then a 3v3 game such as this post suggests followed by a shootout. if it were divisional, you could run a small bracket east vs west. Think this would cure my fatigue of seeing "all star selections" that carry seemingly no weight or meaning to the player. but custom skill events akin to the real all-star event is still more ideal.
