I'm sure the gameplay has changed, but has it changed much more than an updated tuner set would've provided? I'm not seeing anything immediately recognizable as any different from NHL 15 from the videos I've seen.

Not planning to get the game this year and nothing I've seen has really changed my mind.

Also, is there a demo this year?
Here is a just a few things that come to mind.
  • From what I heard there is no demo this year.
  • At least in EASHL player types are huge into deciding on what your player will be able to do during the game which has not been part of EASHL in the past. I am not sure how this will carry over into other game modes but I hope it will.
  • Defensively the Computer AI will block shots and poke check. (Makes it much more difficult to cut to the middle to snipe shots)
  • Game speed is slightly slower
  • Goalies have more animations and react more realistically
  • Added back the ability to view any save or play during a game
  • Added back the tracking of lots of stats accessible at pause/intermission menu.
