These guys can't even get line changes and penalties right, no shot they could add a rejoin feature.
Is that so hard to do ???
It's hard to say. EA uses dedicated servers, so they have much of the infrastructure already in place. So implementing a re-join would likely just be an extension of the systems that already exist.
However, the work comes in when making it abuse-proof and having it work without causing game-breaking bugs.
Slot reservation rules, secure re-join, game state re-sync; all of that without breaking the game or exposing exploits. The difficulty is less about the technical possibility and more about prioritizing the feature.
Given the age of the engine and how it handles game state, adding a proper re-join feature would likely require major changes to core systems. That’s not giving EA a pass or saying it’s “too hard,” it’s just being realistic about the limitations of an older engine and flow that weren’t designed for mid-game recovery.
Unless there’s a fairly significant overhaul of the NHL engine itself, I wouldn’t expect a true re-join feature to happen.
Ok if rejoin is tehnical thing(hard tehnical)
then option B: dont trow players out . 😄

Are you frequently disconnecting? What exactly is happening when you say you're "thrown out"?
Not frequently, but still it occurs more than it should occur. So it is a problem that you, us a player who gets trown out can not do nothing about it.
Trown out = out of the game(when playing chel for example, team vs team).
It shows error code (don't have exact example). Lost connection.
