NHL 14 Demo Arrives August 20th, Bruins vs. Blackhawks, NHL 94 Anniversary Mode & HUT

NHL94 LOL.....

Considering we're getting to sample three different modes, which includes starting our HUT squads in the demo, I'm fine with only getting one period of play in Play Now. I think we've become a little too jaded in expecting so much from a demo. It's meant to be a sample, not a full game. NCAA needed to include three matches because it had a lot to prove and even then, the games were stripped of a lot of the bells-and-whistles to allow for that.

I'm just anxious to get my hands on Anniversary mode and to start my team in Ultimate Team.

Also, the trailer was fraking amazing. This makes the pretty awful Madden demo trailer even more of an embarrassment.

So wait- there's going to be a 4 team HUT tournament, that means 4 full games against Halifax, Grand Rapids, Boston, and Chicago, right? Would make the 1 period argument pretty silly.

I believe it'll be like last year where every game starts in the 3rd period.

since i pulled off my Live (after 10 years of being a member, getting PS4 and perhaps X1 in 2 years time) i'll just read the comments in OS if in this demo you'll see all the new features and improvements in the game.

do I need xbox live to download demos?

When I first heard the demo video music I thought for sure I was going to see Dean'r Youngblood one touch deking through everyone and then squaring up against Racki at center ice.
