I actually wonder if the declining sales are a reason for the lack of a game this year, have to wonder if the budget got cut.

The game didn't break a million in sales last year and had a big drop from NHL 13. Have to wonder if the poor sales led to a limited budget for a team that was already working on two games.

From what I heard they've been working on this title for 2 years, I know the EA NHL series is a small budget team to begin with so I don't see EA cutting out funding for the series. IMO its just bad resource useage on the dev team.

Didn't Rammer promise us a brand new Stanley Cup celebration for NHL 15 as well...... it looks exactly the same as 09 but without the stupid video projected on the ice.
