NHL 15: The 10 Hockey Leagues Represented in NHL 15


During the NHL portion of Electronic Arts' Gamescom press conference, a brief screen flash revealed the 10 North American and European hockey leagues that will be represented in NHL 15:

North America

National Hockey League (NHL)
American Hockey League (AHL)
Ontario Hockey League (OHL)
Western Hockey League (WHL)
Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL)

Europe

Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL)
Finnish Elite League (Liiga)
Czech Extraliga (ELH)
Swedish Hockey League (SHL)
Swiss National League (NLA)

All of these leagues were present in NHL 14, so hockey fans should be relieved to know that no licensing partners were lost this year, as was the case in FIFA 15.

The bad news for Russian gamers is that their country's top league, the KHL, remains absent from EA's hockey series. Popular Russian athletes like Ilya Kovalchuk and Alexander Radulov should at least be playable and tradable, assuming that NHL 15 still features roster editing, and still offers its usual selection of Olympic national teams.

EA has been reluctant to release any information regarding NHL 15's game modes, so we still don't know how, exactly, you'll be able to use these leagues in NHL 15. NHL 14 let gamers select any league they wanted to inside Season Mode, but the game would not allow your Be A Pro character to play anywhere outside North America.

I guess with the recent Ed O'Bannon lawsuit that there is no chance of NCAA teams and players ever appearing in the NHL series. That would probably interest me more than KHL

How do all these leagues factor into GM mode? (Haven't owned an NHL game in a few years)

I can't wait for "NBC" to be covering the QMJHL, I really hope we have an arena flyover in Baie Commeu or get to see the bright lights of Sydney Nova Scotia in the pre game.

I just hope that when drafting, they provide the point totals of that player in junior so you can really see what they've done during the year.

You can edit the roster (before starting BaGM) by putting Non-NHL and Non-AHL players to Free agency list (like those players in Euro league) that you think can help your AHL team. In fact some of them are good for your D3 or reserves.

Was hoping they added a new league. It's been a while. Oh well at least they have the old ones.

What are the chances they changed the national team jerseys? Those things are uggggly.
