Cant Connect To EA Server Only On NHL 17

Same here, and there are 2 others out of 6 guys on our EASHL team that can't get on as well.(Located in Canada, US East and Central). Tried everything, reboots, even left stuff unplugged for hours, changed my modem, I don't have router hooked to my xbox thats straight to a cable modem. Did that thing where you goto settings and clear the MAC's and IP's. Sadly this has made me cancel my pre-order for NHL18 as I am not going to buy a game and not be able to play., and EA surely won't reimburse me when it won't connect.   I wonder if those that are here posting are you part of the xbox preview program?  I am and I was thinking it had to do with that.
