People sit back in their chairs and don't understand why a game that is produced in less than a year isn't breath-taking each and every time. There are some segments of the NHL gaming population who will never be pleased.
The old "you can't complain because you don't do it" argument? Really?

A prime example of what's wrong with the NHL series is the simple fact the Be a GM mode is so horribly wrong and doesn't match the NHL rules for contracts and such that I can only presume its based on pure laziness and not being educated. I post on a message board and seem to know more rules about the CBA, how it works, and how contracts and such are affected then people getting paid to make a game about the NHL.

You can say that there's a time crunch or pressure to push out quality games every year, but I fail to see how titles like Madden and FIFA do it every year, and for the majority of the time, and still improve the game greatly. EA Sports is a great organization, its not unrealistic to expect the same from the NHL series.
