This is pretty straight forward. Essentially you can hook up multiple controllers to one Xbox to play as a team in Online Versus with your friends or connect with one another to play in a drop-in EASHL game.
Damn. This is not what I was hoping for when I saw it. Hopefully the season mode will allow for multiple users, but I've learned not to hold my breath for that one as it's a bit niche.

edit: Haha, awesome:

Yes. All of the NHL teams that have official mascots will have them in NHL 16.
Sad to see that GM Connected didn't generate the attention in needed to continue on:

GM Connected was a highly requested feature that unfortunately failed in many ways. When we look a the data, only a very small number of leagues had more than 2 players per league and though the mode supported up to 25 years, very few leagues made it past the 20 game mark of season 1. We understand that that there were some issues with the overall speed of the mode. Moving forward we want to work with our fans to better understand their needs and expectations on what a great online dynasty for the new generation of consoles should deliver and where we fell short on GM Connected similar to the approach we took in bringing EASHL to NHL 16.
