Is there a line change glitch fix coming?

Franchise only player here.

I've been playing the NHL series every year since the 90's (though since '20 I started going bi yearly) and I've never posted here. But for the love of God, please fix the incorrect/mixed lines coming on when changing lines on the fly. I saw a comment from a mod months ago that "the team is aware"...but we're 25% of the way through the games cycle until the next one, and one of the most important parts of a game of hockey is broken. I get it, I see people complain about a lot of stuff that isn't that big, but not being able to put out the right lines means the game does not work as it is supposed to.

I've seen other people upload videos of it and I will if I have to. But getting mish mashed lines all the time seems like a simple fix. Can I just get an answer if it will be patched so I know if I can eventually play one day, as of now it's just sitting there unfortunately.

Also, whose idea was it to shorten the game intros, not even any goalie stats. Thought we were gonna get better presentation when they revamped it, but the opposite. But that's a minor complaint that can't be changed.

    Hopefully?? It's literally one one of, if not THE most important aspect of the game. It's like someone buying COD but having no reload button, or playing Mario but can't jump. This is unreal.

    I decided to give it one more try. Tonight it had a new line change glitch. Even post whistle the correct lines won't come out.

    Example my PK1 is Kampf and Pacioretty. For the faceoff the game randomly sends out Kampf and Knies

    Next whistle, I put out PK2, Matthews and Knies. The game sends Matthews and Robertson.

    This isn't a minor gameplay bug, it's possibly the most important aspect of the game and no one cares. We should get refunds since it's actually broken, literally paid for a game we cannot play. It's not even about the money, that's irrelevant, they should just have the deceny to fix it or take the game back.

    Hi there. I still don't have an update on line changes. Hopefully, we'll see this addressed in a future update.

    As far as presentation goes, that's something that would have to wait until a future game.

    Appreciate the feedback. Thank you!
