Furthermore, when you’re on the powerplay as the Sharks, the fans all make the clamping movement with their hands while the Shark mascot goes wild in the stands. For New York Islander fans, the arena in Brooklyn is really well done. The areas of the rink in real life where there are no seats and the jumbotron being off-centered from above the middle of the ice is also there. Other things like the lights in Vancouver’s stantions, lightning tesla coils in Tampa Bay, fire in Calgary, cannons in Columbus, etc. were there so each team has their unique feel.
This is the kind of bullsh** I wish they wouldn't spend so much time on while the game is incomplete. I still need an online league mode, GM Connected done properly. I'll think about buying this game for EASHL purposes but it bothers me that they always want to prioritize this tangential window dress stuff instead of the gameplay.
