What I don't understand is one getting upset, and throwing vulgar language because they didn't like what they read. As Bryzgalov said: "It's only a game." There's no reason to get bent out of shape over a simple Q&A or a video that doesn't show much about game. I wouldn't pass judgement on a game until I learn more about it, and actually got to play it to get a true impression.

At the same token, people shouldn't be disallowed to voice completely legitimate gripes with the game, especially in relation to how EA treats it's NHL franchise compared to it's other intellectual property and sports licenses.
The only reason I buy the EA NHL series is because there is literally no other hockey game on the market. I think for many, many fans, if there were an alternative, they would switch brand allegiance.
With steam getting into the console market, I can only hope they start developing generic sports franchises that don't have to deal with licensing agreements and pandering the way EA does.
