NHL 27 Realistic Must Have's:

Kinda crazy that adding a game mode that's been requested consistently for a decade, one which has already been in the game before and every other sports game has, is asking for the moon

Although your requests have merit. You have to remember. You are dealing with EA here. The franchise that rarely if any. Takes suggestions from those that buy and play their product. And its current rank as the 190th game to be played, having 189 above them. Doesnt bode well for any significant changes, other than the player selected for 27s cover. Problems dont get resolved. So what do you think your chances of just 1 of your suggestions coming to fruition?

they also should add custom goalie masks for custom teams. Im tired of having to find a random european teams helmet that has the same team colors or just using the plain boring white one. 

they also should add the option to add the echl league to franchise. would add a third team and might be harder to manage but you could play your younger prospects that arent neccesarily ready for the ahl. and it would be more realistic. doesnt have to be permanent but could be an optional add on. 

For Franchise mode I'm tired of having a tear down or out of contention for playoffs team in the season and seeing the stands packed with glow up sticks like it's the game 1 of the Stanley cup finals.... when it actually is game 62 of a tankathon season no one want to watch that! I think they should implement adaptive fan attendance depending on team record and status weather it is big market small market that would be pretty cool and visually appealing. 

Another thing is with the development of voice detection and AI I want to see more custom commentary seriously EA..... you could make this really cool.

I'd also love to see a more of a customized scouting panel with scouting teams instead of scouts where you have to rotate through regions you should have a team in each league in the content.

Also maybe an overall refresh on FA for example make it a mini game like the trade deadline and fix the AI logic to resign an RFA that has elite or top 6 potential over paying Jeff skinner 5 million dollars and locking themselves in cap hell.

I do agree with most of what u said however I do love the glow sticks in the regular season 

With franchise mode they need to allow you too use the ECHL affliations as well.  And allow you too loan players to European teams like NHL teams do.

All Id want is for them to actually fix bugs and glitches that have been in the game for multiple years. 

For World of Chel, it would be great to see the level color (blue, purple, etc.) of the players on your team in the lobby. This would help you quickly tell whether someone might be trolling or if they’re playing seriously.

Hybrid control users deserve icon passing. The fact we don't get it as it was sold as a new feature is a joke. No matter what control style you use, you should get access to it. Also stop making putting new jerseys in the game tied to the updated rosters. It defeats the purpose of roster sharing. I should be able to use any roster I want, and have full access to all the jerseys in the game. On icings, when the opponent gets an icing and I change lines, don't show me the previous line is on the ice when they're clearly not. I know it's a minor thing, but if they can't fix small things why would I have any hope they'd fix anything else. I got a PS3 emulator and played NHL 2K7 and 2K8, both are far superior to any EA NHL game we've gotten in over a decade
