I know, slim to none.

I would love it if they would though. Being able to have Ramage, Arnold, etc. would be nice.
You wouldn't have them anyways, you'd have LW #12 etc. (you could customize though), and with the lawsuits they're already facing I doubt they'd want to open yet another can of worms in the whole player likeness area.

Yeah, exactly. I know you can buy custom downloads from other sources for NCAA games, but the NCAA has strict rules when it comes to using players' names and likenesses for profits. Incredibly ridiculous when you consider how much the NCAA itself profits from them but whatever.

Someone else mentioned that a few times, and their comments weren't deleted. Maybe it's because this guy had the NHL '12 cover as his profile pic. I know I mentioned it as well, and my comment was deleted, haha.

Love it. My biggest pet-peeve was going full speed to hit a player, when one of our players hits him right before my and my hit ends up doing nothing at all, as I fly into the boards injuring myself.

Well that's awesome. Me and my friend are going to be terrible because all game long we're just going to go for double checks.

Come on, how many on here are going to go out of their way to absolutely destroy Tim Erixon? I know I will.

One game I hit someone and literally killed him. I hit him in the d-zone and he ended up in the o-zone behind the net, and stayed down in pain for over 12 minutes (until the whistle).

I have never seen that ever except that one time, he was just lying there and couldn't get up. Me, my buddy and one of his teammates started tea-bagging him for like 7 minutes. Hilarious.

This will be minor compared to what I will do to Tim Erixon.

Why stop there? Slam one and while a 3rd person has the puck, try to double team the other.

I believe it means the Sim will occasionally kick players from the FO circle (Which it already does if you use the Sim Game function). They took out being able to kick players a while ago...

The new sim engine and Action Tracker is cool, but they Be A GM blog was extremely underwhelming. A promise of a more refined trade system (promised every year), modified contract demands, and retired numbers. Meh.
