Again nothing about EASHL this is worrisome. Cancelled preorder for now.

Usually their preorders have some sort of gear for your eashl avatar. I'm worried about no eashl as well. What would be the point of 12 man physics though!!!

The backlash of no EASHL will be hilarious to watch. But have they said anything about HUT? I skipped 14 but I know they included a new thing that showed the average price that every card was going for, which I hated. The fun of 13 and before, was that if you were savvy and knew the market, you could work it and get steals, and it actually benefitted you to know the market. Now it's just dumbed down.

EASHL blows. But if it's gone, it'll be brought back as an exciting new feature next year. More wool over the eyes!

If the card quality from these weekly packs is anything like it was in last year's Season Ticket, I wouldn't expect to get much in return for your $10.

I had the Season Ticket for the Xbox 360 in NHL 14, and gold Rick Nash + Milestone Jaromír Jágr are the only worthwhile cards I received in the 20-plus packs from last year's promotion. Of those two, only Jágr is still in my lineup at the end of the year, as there are now way better wingers on the card market than regular edition Rick Nash.

I should also mention that, unless they've changed the system for NHL 15, you won't be able to sell any of the cards that you get in these packs. You couldn't quick-sell them or put on the trade market in NHL 14. So any cards that aren't good enough to make your lineup will literally be worthless.

More than I got. I also managed to get a lot of dups. Coincidence?
