Not really.
It's a cosmetic feature barely anyone would notice that affects 1 or 2 cutscenes for 1 team in a 30 team league. Of the 9 announced cosmetic changes, it's easily the least noticeable, which begs the question, why prioritize it in the first place?
It may have been as simple as changing a value number in some code somewhere, but even then...I mean, why not make the coach for Calgary's hair a bit grayer for more authenticity...
It barely deserves a mention, and probably wouldn't get any in a patch update that addressed some of the more substantial cosmetic issues people have noticed, like the colour of Ryan Reeves' skin...
I know you've been getting slammed since the game release, buuuuuut I think the sour reaction is pretty warranted, all things considered. It sounds like a joke because it sort of is.

I still stand by my statement that this game is the best hockey game (in terms of gameplay) they've ever released.
I tried going back to NHL 14 and I can hardly play it. The skating, physics, and overall gameplay are such a huge step up on next gen. It's so much more fluid to play.
Once they get the gameplay modes back in, it'll be even better.

I gave NHL 15 a try on the 360 finally. I was very frusterated...
I do not like the EA server crap. I've bought this game every year and it was giving me issues signing in with my same email and pass...
The graphics didn't seem very good, the gameplay was glitchy, and I just think I'm going to pass on this one... unless the next gun versions get better GM mode.

I'd agree. It's the most realistic/best playing entry yet. They'd got a good foundation in place for this generation...still a damn shame about the lack of modes though.

The computer players are so god damn stupid. Any oddman rush or rebound or just for any reason they'll run into the goalie.
Like it happens 20 times a game. What a joke.

Just finished a couple of HUT games. That poke check is way too powerful. It made up the entire defence of some.

I bought a used PS4 copy of this game over the weekend. There's not much to do other than HUT, so that's all I'm playing. The 2nd pack I opened had Toews in it, so that was pretty neat.
I didn't keep him though, I sold him on the auction market and spread the talent around a bit. Now I have a good team all around, instead of Toews and a bunch of plugs.

You do realize that NHL 15 for 360 is basically NHL 14 with a roster update?

Finished collecting all of the New Jersey HUT cards last night and got the six gold pack bonus reward. Opened them to discover that all of the cards received that way are untradable (so no putting them up for auction). Regardless of the card you don't get any coins for a quick sell either.
Essentially you have to swap them for the duplicate in your collection (and they havent built a convenient way to do this) and sell that one. The problem hits when you get doubles from the reward packs. Completely useless cards if they are players or coaches.

Just for fun I built a team that looks like this...
- Toews, Quick, Landeskog, and basically a bunch of guys with huge upside and low-ish salaries, think of all the really highly rated draft picks of the last 4 years (excluding Edmonton)and I have a lot of them.
I'm $10M under the cap and 30-2-1...
I'm going to sim the season and see what happens

Err, I thought they changed the Stanley Cup celebration? It's the exact same thing as last year minus the dumbass high-shot of the ice with all the teams flashing through the graphic.
Also, how in the hell did they possibly manage making the game WORSE with an update? The CPU players are hyper-aggressive all of a sudden, and worst of all they never, ever miss with a hit. If it's a one-one in my favor the CPU defender makes a bee-line for me every single time, and he always delivers a big hit. I've had to essentially neuter their hitting power and aggressiveness, which hasn't done much given the insignificance of the sliders having any effect whatsoever.
Just when I thought I had the atrocious momentum controls and AI dealt with or compensated for they throw in some more ludicrous garbage that seems specifically designed to drive me to homicide.

Serious question... if the game makes you this upset, why do you still play it?
You can also sell it on ebay, I'm sure you could undercut this guy: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/NHL15-PS4-Pie...item23422d8046
