I'm on the PS4 and went into the Rosters section and the roster was there. I didn't download anything.

I made Schmaltz, Opilka, Mikkola for stl


also made Nilsson, Gillies, Wilcox, Baun, Skjei,


2016 Tkachuk and jones


this will hold me over for now until the next update with AHL, CHL, and Europe.

Why should we have to create anyone? I understand the CHL/AHL thing but there always ends up that there are missing guys who shouldn't be. No other sports game is as lazy and incompetent with it's rosters as the NHL series. I'm also sick of hearing about budget being an issue. Budget has zero to do with taking a few minutes to add the players picture to the game. Budget has zero to do with making a guy the wrong hand or 30 lbs lighter than he is. Budget has zero to do with the fact your play by play name list is the shortest in any sports game and has not grown since 2009. Budget has nothing to do with the fact that your game has barely changed since 2009. If budget truly has you that handcuffed then get out of the sports gaming industry. Time for a new developer to step in.

Old photo of no 1 pick
No photo of no 2 pick
Old photo of no 3 pick

Just 3 of so many faults.

I suppose it would be hard to find a recent photo of Connor McDavid as he is so rarely mentioned by the media.

No way any one could have foreseen Jack Eichel making an NHL roster and thus anticipated the need for a picture, play call and player likeness!! ;-)

Shabby, lazy, unprofessional. Just like the game itself.

How about getting the names in the game, at least from the PA announcer!

I am getting tired of playing as Buffalo and hearing "goal scored by Number FIFTEEN! Assisted by "Number TWENTY-THREE!!"

It's been a while since I've played NHL, has this been an issue before, and if so, has it ever been addressed in a patch or anything?

Can anyone tell me if Ben Hutton is in and what they rated him? He's Vancouver's rookie Dman.

No offense to the EA NHL team, but their patching is garbage.

I'm more than confident that most people on here could do roster updates better than they currently are. There are undoubtedly reasons why EA's updates aren't great, but I'd rather hear those than see lacklustre update after lacklustre update.
