  • Not as much as I was hoping for but the shade thrown at Marchand more than makes up for it

  • Why did you add those new logos into the game. I am just wondering why those certain teams logos got featured and if you will be adding more youth hockey logos

    Hi there, @meestboii.

    I don't have any details on why those specific logos were chosen. Sorry for that. It's possible more logos will be added. We'll have to wait and see what happens. Keep an eye on our official channels for updates. Thanks!
