Although I can see where you're coming from and I do agree with a lot of what you say....Try to keep your forums posts clean and free of profanity or insults.
Yes they charge 80$ for a yearly released game that doesn't work online, and no they will not offer you a refund apology or anything else. But they are aware of the issue since they released the game and they're trying to find a solution. Unfortunately you just have to hope NHL26 will have these issues fixed. On the brightside it is infact a yearly release so if the game doesn't work you just have to wait 1 year and it probably will work on the next one. Try playing HUT in the mean time and buy some packs to make your team good then you can have fun.
Me and my team have been playing over decade EASHL but this year we're all having fun talking in a party and opening HUT packs on stream with each other instead of playing EASHL. It's not the same rush as playing, but spending a few bucks to see what you get is a thrill of it's own.
😂 found the EA burner account. Above this post. Still can’t play the game. Ridiculous and they don’t give a **bleep**. I’d like a refund Community Manager
With no help to EA, it looks like I have found a solution on the PS5 side of things. I noticed ever since I would load into NHL 25 it would absolutely break my Internet connection with my PlayStation. For a week it was frustrating by the end of the week my PlayStation would almost shut down when I loaded up 25. Couldn’t see friends list. Couldn’t see current parties anything After I booted up 25. Would get game configuration error, failed to retrieve data error, etc. I went into my network settings and manually change my DNS numbers to what I searched on google for the generic numbers. #1) 8.8.8.8 #2) 8.8.4.4
And boom, booted right up and I was able to play 5 consecutive games last night and never had a crash, lose connection or anything.
Hope this helps for everyone!

Interesting. I'll keep this in mind. Since it's more of an account related issue, it doesn't seem like this should work. Regardless, we're hoping this issue is resolved with tomorrow's patch.
crazy thing about it is that seems to have literally been the exact situation for me as well. it’s like the game bricked my PS5 and my router wasn’t allowing access for internet to my console even with a ethernet cable. i had to contact psn support and he gave me the same solution and it’s worked ever since then as well. but this only happen as soon as i started playing NHL game modes online
