I loved the way the bench was reacting during the fight, some players leaning on the boards, some sitting, players on the ice just bent over while others stood up. Sure is a far cry from the old empty arena mini game from NHL13..

I'm excited for the game stepping into next gen.

There's really nothing to talk about in this trailer. I'll still buy it but they need to completely scrap the goalies they had last gen.

This is so awesome! Haha!

Not counting goalies, there's 18 players dressed for each team in the finals. That's 36 players. Of 36, the following wear the 4500:

Greene Lewis Clifford Gaborik Zuccarello McDonagh J. Moore Martinez Nash Carter that's more than 1/4 of all players playing in the finals. Now add huge names like Toews, Stamkos, Malkin, Getzlaf, etc. If there is one helmet that nearly a quarter of the league wears it isn't really nitpicking to want it in the game.

Again, I'm not one to get upset because a random stick is missing or gloves don't look the way I want them to. This is something different. The 4500 not being in the game is kind of like third jerseys not being in the game. Can you live without it? Sure, but it's pretty unacceptable for it to be excluded.

Obviously not much to see here in this trailer, other than the graphics are good, which we obviously knew going into it.

But I can't get that Kane goal that they showed, out of my head. It looks AWFUL. He's standing straight up the whole time, the toe drag/deke thing looks terrible.

Then the shot, the puck just like, rockets off of his stick into the top corner. He doesn't slide his bottom hand down the shaft even a little bit, to get leverage to lift it. It looks so clunky, just like it always has.

I'll wait to reserve full judgment, especially with the AI, but I honestly have 0 faith in the EA NHL team to get it right.

My bet is yes. The trailer said it was all actual gameplay. I know that doesn't mean the commentary is automatically in-game, but I sure hope it was.

Is this game playable on the floor?
