I had no issues last night and the night before.

My only problem is I can't win any games!

Diverse and I played our game with no problems last night.

I love the idea of the GM Connected thing but whoever was making it needed to get their head out of their ass first.

Like having to sit through that 20 second load time to load the main screen and 'retrieve match schedule' any time I go to do ANYTHING else and come back. Or having to scroll through every box score in the league to find out how my CPU/Sim games turned out. Then only being able to see the score, no expanded results to see who scored, etc.

Just messy, sloppy, almost as if it wasn't tested. Typical EA though... more and more modes and none of them ever really that well done.

I'm still having fun, but it could've been made so much better through really simple things. Doesn't make sense.

Agreed. This could have been a game-changer, but I feel its not quite there. Back in the Xbox 1 days Microsoft had a XSN Sports system- scores/changes/etc would all publish to a website, that anyone could view as well.

If they add that, it will be a solid addition. Web view for the league/management/ would be huge. And make the darn menu's faster!

I'm with you guys, GM Connected seems almost in beta testing right now and not a finished, polished feature. But neither was Be a GM or Be a Pro right out of the gate. Here's hoping they're currently working frantically to improve GM Connected for NHL 14. The wait times and interface need some serious work. And give us the damn draft!

Sure, with anything there could be improvement. But realisticly, its a free server. Ya, load times could be quicker but its really not that bad.

Well, I wouldn't say no problems. Miller letting in a floater from the blue line from big Bert in ot was a little problematic. For me anyways

so the waiver issue seems to be regardless of when you sim at advances or have set the CPU to play for you? if that's the case perhaps teams should still set to CPU if they cannot play? i haven't gotten a game in at all during this advance and it kind of sucks

Yeah, I guess I also tied it up w 1.7 seconds left in the third to get it to Bert putting it through Millers glove.

At least you're still undefeated in regulation!

Can we confirm that somebody who didn't allow users to play his CPU had their roster F'd after a sim?

Lesson learned. When I have it... Clear it. Had a chance to clear it a couple times but tried to pass it out. You win some you lose some. It was a good game. I had fun.

Trying to set up textplus. Takes forever to register. I have tried numerous combinations and seems like every username I try they already exist.
