My fears confirmed....buying good EASHL players. Damn it. Hopefully all the 12 year olds blew their allowances on something else.

buying stuff doesn't really bother me as long as it's reasonably unlockable through playing the game. forcing someone to wear inauthentic equipment to be competitive will annoy me, if that is in fact what they have done.

Hmpf, EA keep it real. Haven't seen a NHL-player with graffiti on his skates.

It's nice for casual players but something tells me that most of your fanbase is looking for authenticity. I sure am.

Seriously, EA? WTF kind of boost do you get from wearing a camo helmet?

You aren't the one getting the boosts, it is EA's bank account.
