We can't use numbers in the team name

EA_Aljo 


What is the problem

  • We still can't use numbers in team name, when we create teams in NHL 25. If try use numbers in the team name, to the screen come to text " ERROR, You have entered an invalid character, please try again". We can use numbers in team nickname and abbreviation, but still can't use numbers in team name. I think it is bug , I'm not be totally sure about that, but it seems that way.

 

How you find this bug

  • Go to the  team creation and try use numbers in team name, nickname and abbreviation, you notice, that we can't use numbers in the team name, but we can use numbers in the nickname and abbreviation. 

 

What should be done

  • This problem has existed since NHL 18 and EA Sports has not make nothing to fix it. I.e. NHL 17 is last NHL video game, where we have been able to use number also in the team name. I wanted see, that EA Sports finally fix this bug. I've tell about this bug many years.

 

  • This screenshot is from NHL 24, but this same problem is still in NHL 25. I would've added screenshot from NHL 25, but some reason I can't change language version in NHL 25.

    Hello. I'll get this reported, but I'm going to need screenshots from NHL 25. Can you get those for me?

    Sure I can. Does this help anything? If you try to use numbers in the team name, this notice come to the screen, when you press R2 button (Done)

    I have reported this issue for many years but EA Sport has not fixed it. Would be nice, that EA Sports now fix this problem.

    I'm looking into this, but I have a feeling it's intended since it's been this way for years. Most likely to stop the very high number of teams that would use certain numbers in an offensive manner.

  • However we can use numbers in the team nickname, abbreviation and arena name, as this screen shot show.  ðŸ¤” 

  • Hopefully EA Sports can finally fix this and we can use the numbers in team name in the future.
