In every video game, there are things that can be improved. The good thing about having a sports gaming franchise is that there is the ability to make corrections to the next year’s game. What would you like to see in NHL 13? What are the best and worst parts of NHL 12? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

Nhl 13 Should have:
1. Pre-game warmup ( as player or goalie)
2. Have the World juniors Tournament
Yes i agree. The top 5 things i want to see added or changed to nhl 13 are:
1. Being able to request a trade in BAP
2. The world juniors tournament
3. Having the Fantasy Draft in the all star game (GM mode and BAP)
4. Skills Competition (GM, pick a player if no one from your team is at the all star game. BAP can only participate if your player is taken)
5. Better physics. (Size related to speed, so not all players skate at the same speed regardless of the actual stat. Hitting, so bigger guys don’t get run over by Martin St. Louis or so hits don’t make your player fly 4 feet through the air.)
Oh to add to my comment sorry, better variety of shots and more realistic dekes… such as through the leg shots… and have the player actually move in the direction he should after a deke and not have him push the puck one way then continue to go the other way as part of the deke

Me and my friends are waiting for Xbox Live Specator Mode. It would be really nice to be able to watch my friends playing when I’m waiting for my turn to play.
1. Special effects that represent the actual home teams stadium
2. A way to play, say, the Detroit Red Wings back in the day at Olympia Stadium. If created, the players would have the old leather equipment, no helmets, etc.
1. In be a pro mode. Ability to play in world junior hockey championship. If eliminated from nhl stanley cup get a req to join your national team for wc. Every 4 years its olympic time!
2. Player of the week,month

My biggest Wish is that the EBEL (Erste Bank Eishockey Liga (Austria) ) are in NHL13

2. Put 3 stars back in
3. NCAA teams
4. Be able to create your own arena
5. Have winter classic in bap and bagm.
Hi, I would love some improvements about Be A Pro mode:
(I have NHL 11. I don´t know how is NHL 12 at it…)
1. I was drafted in 3rd round and got to Tampa bay team. They said, that I will go right in second line. That´s so unrealistic. I would love to play for example in AHL for some time, cuz that´s how it usually goes…
2. I wouldn´t also mind being sent into AHL or traded after bad performance.
3. It would be nice, if your Pro could get in representation (if playing good).
4. Also, would it be possible to start in some european league and get drafted from Europe? You know, I am from Czech republic, so I would really enjoy starting in czech league. Of course, if you don´t play good enough…you stay in your league.
5. The czech fans are shouting “Češi”! That´s great, but then they start shouting “we want a cup”, which they would never do right? Why not for example: Kdo neskáče, není Čech (Who´s not jumping, isn´t Czech) – that is the biggest classic of Czech fans.
These are just the details. I still love NHL series. You guys are the best!
I really like how recently they added the CHL.
EA Sports should now add the NCAA, the CIS and Provincial Junior “A”
Be A Pro Mode: after each season you guys retire entirely way too many players. Guys even in their young 30′s. By the time im in the 4th season half of the teams are guys i dont even recognize. Please fix this. We all know Lecavieler and Brodeur arent retiring anytime soon, so dont have them retire after the first be a pro season.
Also one more thing, the goal horns are weak. In games, goal horns always blow 3 times and for some reason in the game its always 2 really short ones. whats up with that?
They should have scouting reports for each team you play in eashl. Also you should be able to have a pregame warm up before the game starts. Also you should be able to go into the locker room after the period is over with all of the other players on the team.
And you should be able to see the teams record before playing them. Although that may cause a lot of teams to quit
1.please different commentary please it got soooo boring and annoying.
2. Also instead of one reff add the other and the 2 linesmen please more realistic.
3.also make other players/prospects look like its actually them
when in a fight acctually have better physics and show blood
1. better fighting (not the 1st person crap)
2. warm ups
3. talk to other players that are having a bad game
4. different announcers
5. able to be traded in be a pro
6. have more than one ref
7. during the fights show the other players
8. watching on the ice and the bench
9. play as historic teams
10. create arenas for creat a team
11. use letters for created teams jerseys
12. stanely cup celebration has to change
Aslo you should get endorsments in be a pro like for example you start with easton then work your way up with equitment
1) My name is not David Jones. My name is Jonathan Jones. When I score in BAP I do not want to hear “assisted by David Jones”.
2) I am sick of playing for the Nashville Predators. I want to request a trade.
3) My picture makes me feel like a cartoon. I am not a cartoon.
4) I win the Stanley cup, I do not get to hoist it, but instead watch a cheesy pre-made video that is 4 years old and involves no interaction at all.
PC. Make like the Jets and bring it back home where the game belongs.
I really want the winter classic in be a gm and be a pro so ur team or ur player would have the opportunity to play in that once in a lifetime event
Add the team builder feature
Or
Simply add NCAA teams like all of the other playable leagues
1) bring back better fighting like in NHL 2003-2004 or fighting like in the 2K games.
2) Get better animations for when you run into the goalie MAKE ZIT LOOK REAL. i am a goalie and when someone runs into me i always find my self in the back of the net. Bring that into the game ASAP.
3) have a little blood in fighting or when you get hit and the glass breaks and you get cut.
4) Have goalie injuries like when you run into the goalie and have the other goalie warm up.
5) Finally have brawls like when you run into the goalie make it more like in actual game.
P.S. just make the game more like the game we see on television please
A couple more things for goalies.
1) Have goalies be able to create there own masks with their own designs significant to the team they play on.
2) Have more up-to-date pads through out the year.
add a world juniors mode
1) add the danish hockey league
2) add easton rs stick and skates
3) get expansion packs if new equipment and sticks and other come out
make it so that you can do things other than nhl like get a house and have a life outside of nhl
add 3D!
Bench Clearing Brawls!
First I would like to see in ultimate team to be able to have actual arenas
2. From Nicks comment why have a life out of hockey in this game its not sims or something
3. NCAA teams
4. New announcing
5. Be able to have a shoot around before the game
Thanks
1. different commentators – 3 or 4 different broadcasters (TSN, Sportsnet, CBC) with their own commentators and its you decice who your broadcaster is.
2. fighting – enough of the first person fighting, it should be third person. This way when the fight happens you dont need to change screens and you can still see all the other players on the ice.
3. hitting – it’s alot better but it’s still magnetic and pretty easy to make open ice hits. It should be really hard to knock a guy down, the less big hits there are the more you notice when there actually is a big hit.
4. deking – changing the hitting will make this come more naturally but smoother, quicker and more unique dekes.
5. saves – don’t get me wrong the goalies are alot better then in NHL 11 but I wanna see goalies make desperation saves (diving across the crease, reflex saves). This would lead to more scrambles infront of the net that end with a huge save bringing up the intensity of the game.
#1 world juniors
#2 olympics
#3 better pro( like face customization varieties, its the same every year)
# 4 online be a pro and all be a pros be able to go bast level 90
#5 fighting needs to be better people crashing the net fights ect
#6 refs stop fights get in the way( not to much)
#7 arenas and jersey customization
#8 more teams
#9 better dekes
# 10 arenas have to be smaller feels like it takes forever to go from one side of the rink to the other
#11 players have to be faster because if its smaller rinks bigger players means more hitting. Certain players should have advantages.
#12 trades in be a pro
#13 interviews and warm ups
# 14 in be a pro you should have a life not like everything but have an apartment like i think nfl 08 had and you should be able to work your way up
#15 commentators
this only a few but the game can be way better they should learn from what they see in real games watch more tv ect
ps they should also have teams from the past example detriot team from i dont know 90′s vancouver team from the 94′s stuff like that make the game more fun and time consuming. Also the legends are incomplete they forgot so many maurice richard, plante, they can even have players like sundin sakic naslund ect. Changes like that can make the game so much more fun

Thanks guys…
goalie fights and an opption to reveiw as goalie ( goalie complain)
- All-Star Skills Competition
- Ability to get drafted out of a European League in Be a Pro
- Ability to request a trade in Be a Pro
-Training Camps in Be a Pro
- Warmups before games
- World Juniors Championship
- More realistic jerseys for international teams including european league teams.
1. get rid of first person fights
2. have different horns for different teams
3. goalie injuries
-bring back 3 stars
-everything should be in real time, ie, the cut scene should be in real time with gameplay. Shouldnt see kelser skating when he should be in box
-have all the jerseys. especially the international ones
-every enviroment should match that exact teams perfectly from real life, ie the goal horns, songs, arean, scoreboard etc
-try to work each player personality better
-alow for more than one player in a scrimige
1. Add better gameplay
2. Add better gameplay
3. Add better gameplay….
The gameplay in their franchise is horribly repetitive and the AI are incredibly dumbass.
I can only play against my friends because playing against the AI makes me rage. The reason why I rage is because the goals they score are because of my own AI on my team do not “do their part”. I know how to position my players and I know where to pass, but when holding down the Triangle button (or Y button) to hold a player against the boards doesn’t work and lets a skater get away and score, I can’t help but get mad. When I am skating an offender behind and around the net to a wing, and have all my other offenders skate AWAY (I repeat, AWAY from the slot) to the opposite wing of my offender that is in my control to take away the scoring chance, I can’t help, but…get mad. As I am on the rush on a wing I can never pass to centre because it will get intercepted. If I don’t pass to a centre-man, or another winger I’ll pass the blue-line and wait around until my D-men are at the line and pass back to them. That routine of having to wait until my D-men skate to the blue-line and pass back to them and then waiting for my offense to set up in the slot is the same on every fucking rush.
If gameplay isn’t “enhanced”, then I’ll I ask for is sliders:
For if sliders were introduced then it would give us the opportunity to adjust every aspect of the game and make it the way we want it. If they do add sliders, they have to go “all the way” and have sliders for practically every detail.
knee tackle
elbows tackle
game bans
ITE can edit their own home parks and price of tickets and if you have even five match losing streak to the general public does not place more than usual as the NHL in 2004 and more judges
The single most amazing feature to me would be this:
In EASHL, AI players can be traded, bought off free agency, and track stats.
Just so you can feel like Be A GM as well as playing with your buddies.
1. Pre game warm up
2. Being able to hit the refs, sometimes they piss me off and I want to nail them
I would like to see on NHL 13
* Warm Ups for BAP
* Your BAP ratings go up during the year as you progress
* To be able to do training camp for the world juniors, and nhl team.
* to play for the world juniors, or team canada.
* Participate in NHL all star events like (hadest slap shot ect.)
* With your money you earn for your BAP salary, you should be able to use that to hire new or improved coaching staff instead of using xp. What NHL player uses xp?
* To have scheduled practices in BAP.
That is all i can think of right now
1. Better physics when someone gets hit; im fucking tired of being hit going up ice and then start spinning around and fall straigh on my back. Like, that doesnt happen, especially when someone hits me dead on.
2. Better fighting. Bring back the fighting from 2003-2004, where the punches actually feel satisfying and real. The refs should also be able to jump in if jersey gets pulled over, the tie-down comes off etc.
3. Please make better player customization and team customization. The same generic heads every year are starting to get a little boring.
4. Make players advantages be a much much more noticeable. Like, I dont understand why Hal Gill has as nice strides a Michael Cammalleri or even Dion Phaneuf. This means if a player has better skating rating, make them look better as skaters! Same for speed and etc.
They should put asg skills competition
1.) pre game warmup with helmet off and high five fans
2.) video showing player arrive to rink
3.) create own arena
4.) show the dressing room of like players taping sticks and lacing the skates up
5.)bring 3 stars back
6.)pre/post game interveiws with press
7.) comentators other than the two idiots who do it saying the same things over and over get jim hughson
Do elitserien better, I mean right now they skate much slower than NHL and IRL they dont, and fix their jerseys so they look like they should.
Be able to Bench other players online if they are playing awfully.
Vote to kick bad goalies online.
Better hitting physics
GO TO SHOOTOUT IN ONLINE GAMES
Spend salary
1. BETTER CPUs
2. more custom jeresys
3. custom area
4. more custom logos
5. BETTER AND MORE REFs
6. custom walk out muic during the pre game
XD
Press ie RT+LT to hockey stop! To spray ice on the goalie when he covers the puck, or to make a sweet move on a PS
Have new names in create a team mode this is what i mean
Nighthawks
River Rats
Thoroughblades
Wolf Pack
Have Fans throw stuff on the ice
Brawl with Fans
A PC Version!!
World juniors
Skills competition
3 stars
BAP suspensions and requesting trades
GM mode in depth draft
KHL
Vintage teams (like 2K used to do)
new commentary like doc emerick
real goal songs and goal horns for each team
FRENCH COMMENTARY for the french version. Able to choose goal horn. A All Star game DAY with games like penalitiy shot and different games like in the reality..
1) skills competition during the all-star break
forgot they should put the original phoenix coyotes jersey.
Online play is so frustrating. Without serious changes I am done with the NHL series. I’ll stick to playing in real life.
1. AI is horrible. I love watching my computer players do drop passes from the neutral zone, pass across the slot, dump the puck on a breakaway.
2. One timers DO NOT have a 100% success rate in real life. Make one timers harder and less accurate.
3. Velcro stick has to go. It is impossible to skate with the puck through 5 players take a hit from everyone pull the puck left to right the full length of your arm span and pull off a shot.
4. Learn the laws of physics before you design a hitting engine. I love going full speed at 6-2 220 and getting dropped by a 5-7 165lb player. cause that really happens.
EA you need to go back to the drawing board on this one. Maybe do a title every 2 years rather than worrying about lining your pockets. Stop making the games for 10 year old’s that think breaking glass, one timers, and impossible deeks are the sport of Hockey. Hockey is a very hard game to play. if you want unrealistic hitting, deeks, one timers, and physics. then make a skill level option for that in the options. Some of us actually like to realistic challenge when we cant get to the rink.
what everyone else is saying PLUS!!!!! CUSTOMIZABLE FRICKEN GOALIE HELPMETS PLEASE
BETTER ANOUNCERS
1. All Stars skills competition
2. Goalie injuries in human played games
3. Suspensions
4. Nordiques, Whalers, etc. in team names ( for commentators )
5. More in-depth stats and historical individual and league wide info for Be A GM and Be A Pro careers ( after a couple years for example, all the players moved around, it would be fun to know which team they played with )
6. Edit Team ( custom team or nhl ) feature in Be A GM mode ( ex: I get sick of my custom team jerseys quickly )
7. Custom Arena builder and intro
8. Trueer presentation and fidelity to nhl on tv in general
1.) Realistic looking players
2.) Add an NHL All Star Skills Competition mode. As well as All Star Game game mode, such as how there is the Winter Classic Mode.
3.) Correct location for All Star Game. In NHL 12 it’s in Heinz field whereas it should have been Citizens Bank Park.
4.) When you call a timeout, show the team go over to the bench and listen to the coach.
5.) In-game updates of other games being played.
6.) Passing isn’t very accurate. You can aim the trigger at the guy you want it to go to and it goes to a completely different player.
7.) Goal songs and horns.
8.) Overall better soundtrack(NHL 12 soundtrack is garbage)
9.) Call penalties for embellishment
10.) Bring back the 3 stars of the game
11.) Improve fighting. Add blood or bruises if one player gets rocked.
12.) Request for a trade in BAP mode
13.) Improve team play. Break-outs DO NOT WORK!!! You skate up with the puck by yourself and your team lags behind typically.
14.) World Junior Championship
15.) Different goal celebrations.
16.) New dekes
17.) Stanley Cup celebration HAS to change.
18.) 3 Stars of the week
19.) Player of the Month
20.) Smoother game play. I find a lot of times that the AI players on your team will stand around in bunches along the blue line pr neutral zone and screw up any sort transition into the attacking zone.
21.) Get rid of Gary Thorne. Bring in someone like Keith Jones or Jim Jackson.
22.) Practices in BAP that if you meet certain goals you gain XP.
I’m sure I’ll think of some more as I continue to play NHL 12. It’s a great game, but it can always be improved. Hopefully someone actually looks at the comments and takes the suggestions that some of us have repeated into consideration.
-Go Flyers!
22.)
1.) Add an NHL All Star Skills Competition mode. As well as All Star Game game mode, such as how there is the Winter Classic Mode.
2.) World Junior Championship/ Olympics
3.) Stanley Cup celebration HAS to change.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like seriously the celebration is crap.
4.) Practices in BAP that if you meet certain goals you gain XP. Reward for actually practicing.
5.) More realistic coach grading… obviously it needs to be improved when you get a hat-trick and your team play is down? You score more than 2 points and your coach should be thrilled. If your a rookie and you actually want a realistic gameplay and not scoring 4-5 points a game your coach shouldn’t hate on you when you get a point ever 1-2 games.
5. xp should increase when your in the NHL compared to CHL. Because you obviously gain more experience from being in the nhl compared to CHL
Bench brawls
1. BAP request to be traded
2. During the intermission they could have interviews
3.All star competitions
4.In BAG they could have it so you could relocate your team and design a new stadium
5. more realistic overall Rankings
6.Take out first person fighting
7.Be a ref mode (cmon it would be pretty cool)
8.Stanley Cup Celebration needs t change, maybe you could take control of he player lifting it and maybe even skate around
9.New commentators like the canucks announcer or someone who doesn’t sound like a creeper
10.more severe injuries
11. when a player gets hurt have a scene where he gets taken off in a stretcher
12.a head shot button
13. suspensions
14.better fan interaction
15.in fighting one punch knockouts
16.Before the game show he players getting into their gear
17. more logos in create a team
18.if they add suspensions the videos explaining why by Brenden shanahan
19.Diffferent dekes
20.Free Agent bidding
Do the people from NHL 12 even look at these and take them into consideration??
Please respond
1) have an all-star fantasy draft of be a gm and be a pro. 2) being able to hit the refs. 3) having real goal horns for every team, and making the goal horns last longer because they only last a couple of horns. 4) showing the city of the home team before the game and showing the arena and vehacles parking. 5) better hitting ability. 6) real life interviews and warm-ups before the game. 7) change the Stanley cup celebration, like make it more realistic.
making the game more realistic!!!!!!
Can’t reiterate much more then what has been said over and over again!!!
One thing i DESPISE and have contemplated just selling this game off is the BAP Mode…..
I’m a goalie, and of course would love to be able to play one on this game. However creating a goalie and it being even REMOTELY accurate is garbage! 1-Timers are consistently being scored (happens all the time in real life…..) AI is utterly horrible. Gaining XP as a goalie higher then 15 PER Sector is impossible. Make it so that this isnt a Forward style game.
I have played this series for YEARS and have had little to no issues. But like stated above, with all that you put out in a Year, NHL,NFL,FIFA etc… Maybe you guys should really consider one title PER sport every 2 years. Get some over your over-paid employees to really go out and see what each arena looks like, HELL take a look at visual photos of each teams arena via there websites and make them look a little more realistic.
Get back to the sport, get back to why people love this franchise instead of releasing a $60 Copy of the previous years game with a little revamped graphic and roster changes.
After all that said i do truelly love the EA NHL series, but if the lack-luster effort continues in this series they will have one less player here!
1.better commentary
2.NO MORE FIRST PERSON FIGHTING NO ONE LIKES IT!!!!!!
3.make it so the computer can fight in bap. im sick of my sniper having to fight everyone.
4.Miracle On Ice
5.More golie mask options for my bap.
6.Make it so the anouncers can like prounonce names, not just have like 100 set ones, Make it so my last name can be in there.
7.Back to the fighting, can you make it so you are not like glued to one spot while fighting, push each other to the glass and move about.
8.Get the right amount of refs.
Now i know that none of what i ask for is gonna be added because what im asking would require a slight amount of work and thats to much to ask of EA. But i can dream cant I. There is going to be about 3 gameplay enhancements if that and they will probably be stuff in previous games that where taken out then claimed to be new. so stop wasting your time folks none of what your saying matters. they probably already have the damn game done anyways. afterall it is EA what do you expect. Next time they claim 200 gameplay “enhancements”. its probably 2 fixes that were supposed to be fixed 3 years ago and they didnt do it till this year. Me i stopped eexpecting great things. If you expect nothing you cant be disapointed.
to the guy named Jeff above. Did you really think it that necessary to add in go flyers? really you think anyone cares on a blog about making The NHL series better. No one Cares what team you like.
This is coming from a guy with the screen named olvechkin… Go flyers!
LOL apparently you care. Dude it’s a site relating completely to hockey, who cares if I throw in a “Go Flyers?” Smh.
By the way, learn how to spell. YIKES!

10. Add sponsorships and endorsements, interviews, agents, and newspaper in Be a Pro
11. Have random occurences for players in Be a GM like family matters they need to tend to, random soreness, and things of that matter.
the problem with the game its to plaine. theres nothing in it to make you say. “hey this is really fun!” every time you play it. and by far GM mode is as plaine as it gets. i think they shuld make it franchise mode. this way ur not the gm but the owner and you hire coaches make new stadiums and even a new team like madden. this makes it alot more fun and alot more addicting. i also beleve they need to get rid of first person fighting as its getting old and if this comes back i think EA needs to think about what there fans really want. the NHL skills compitition in my opinion should be added. this mode just makes the game way more fun. to do all these cool tricks then show ur friend when you saved a video of you scoring a awsome goal in the shootout compition and making him say”no way”. be a pro is a little boring after a while to. EA did a great job with making it alot more intersting this year but i dont think they will work on it more as there are other issues to the game. online play is good but they could make EASHL a little more intersting like making the rink and all that. back to GM mode. if they do make it FRANCHISE mode. you could hire new manigers, new trainers and all that. it just makes it a little more interseting. ANOTHER BIG PROBLEM is they dont have the arena names. like TD GARDEN in boston mass it just has the team name to replace the actulle name. goal horns should be more acurite. the songs after you score a goal should be in the game to it would make the game alot more fun. before a game there should be pre game warm ups. this mode right here will make the game so much more interseting and fun! show the guys in the locker room before the pre game skate would be cool. they need more then 1 ref thats just dumb. do beteer with ratings and potental. i find EA to be way off with this. add hot streaks and cold streaks. in be a pro add retired numbers, season ending hits and all that. another thing that gets me mad is the hiting engine. its so off hit wise. if you watch any hockey game theres mabey 1 or 2 huge hits not 10. its just rediculus. i think they should add to many men on the ice penalty. if ur going to add hip checks clipping should be in the game. and brawls after the whitsle not hiting eachother back and forth like peewees. more then 1 fight at a time. i think its time to add 1 more deke in the game its getting a little boring pulling off the same dekes. and last but not least. they need to make the actulle games more relistic. going all the way to the left taking a wrist shot and getting a goal is just boring not fun. in real hockey games you see team work not one guy rushing the puck and getting a goal. they need to add the extra somthing to the AI to make it more realistic. o and one more thing. for ps3 make a hockey stick that connects with the PS MOVE. and with kinect. this would make the game revolutionary.
PLEASE BRING NHL BACK TO PC, I WILL BUY IT!!!!
Also:
- World junior championship
- Pregame warm-up
- Go to the dressing room between periods
- Updates of other games
- Bring back 3 stars
- Upload your own image for creating a player
- Be able to create your own name for creating a player
- Interviews with players at intermissions
- Press conferences post games
-
Make one of the game modes an All-star skills Competition
Add All star ability contest
I agree with all your ideas, plus I would like players styles (attitudes). Like, for exemple, Alexander Ovechkin is very intense and Travis Moen makes me feel asleep when he skates. It would be wonderful seeing differences between player’s attitudes and styles
1 You should be able to be able to choose what your created team name and city is.
2 You should be able to play as defunct teams like the thrashers, Atlanta flames, and North Stars.
You should also be able to play as the sledge hockey teams and have an Olympics mode. You should also add more countries.
Also add NCAA teams
I also want to be able to fight the refs
BEAGM/BEAPRO
players nemesis, some players just hate other players and will try to get him wounded or get bad penalty when playing against the said player. that rivalty can last years.
1) add player chemestry, slowly building through years. a team that constantly change have chemestry problem. or anti-chemestry; some teammate hate each others.
2) fans morale toward player/team, high the fan cheer more, less they begin to boo. can give bonus to intimidate and against it also.
3) outside the rink trouble-makers, lowering fans morale or creating anti-chemestry.
4) players confidence which affect all the performance of the player.
5) players making demand (play on the 1th line, be traded, etc…) if the demands are not answered confidence get lower
6) hire team personnels like doctor, head scout, coach and assist. coach give bonus to moral/confidence/some stats/players growth. ex: coach John Johnson +5 fan morale, -3 off. awarness, +5 fighting, +5 player growth on athletic. Also chemestry/anti-chemestry can also be made players-coach.
7) random event generated, some common, some rare (ex. player getting divorce, get less confidence during that time, or a player die in a car accident during the off season, team move to a new city etc…) real events of nhl should be inspirationnal IMO.
9) team nemesis, same as players, team sometime want to settle conflict, that can last many games/years.
10) olympic game
11) interview with the press with choices like mass effect. some interview can be disastrous for the player confidence or team morale.
12) ref making some bad call
13) players suspension
14) better team creation
thats all i can think right now
pleaseee add the allstar draft, i think it is so cool
please put in pre game warmups you can hear the players talking
BETTER CREATE A TEAM. IT HAS BEEN THE SAME THING FOR 4 YEARS.
- MORE JERSEYS
- MORE LOGOS
- BETTER COLORS
- ABILITY TO CUSTOMIZE THE ARENA
also get rid of the fat jerseys. just make em look normal. like elite teams are fat looking. i don’t get what is trying to be portrayed…
blood would be awesome. itd mess with the rating but there should be like a parental control thing that could like shut off the blood. cool idea i think.
more depth in be a gm. nothing changes over 25 years.
something cool after winning the cup. seriously. its brutal right now.
Be able to do absolutly everything they do in real life, from arriving at the game, to after game speeches
should be more celebration
Please fix the HUT system…its my and many of my friends favorite things but there are always problems with it and update it more often. Then in Be A GM i love how it is set up but make the trading and player systems a lot better, have more young players be worth more and not want so much salary.
The all star fantasy draft. Be able to be the captain.
you should fix of the hitting system. its almost perfect except one part. when a player with the puck gets bumped by lets say by (player 1) and are still in motion, they develope almost a sheild of where no one else can hit them. so when they are in motion still with the puck player 2 cant finish the hit after player 1 until the computer has regained its balance.
one more thing i would love to see fixed is the hip check. when a player tries to hip check you, your guy almost everytime falls on his face. when in real life he might have just lost his balance and been skating on one skate trying to stay up. also it would be really cool to have like an allstar trick shot contest as a mini game. also a hitting game like in NHL Hits would be lots of fun. And goalies should be able to check in game like Tomas did to Sedin if they come into the crease
!!
celebrations should be longer and more advanced like in the fifa soccer games too!
COLLEGE HOCKEY PLEASE!!!!!!

2.Local Commentary i.e. if u r from Boston, you get Jack Edwards and Andy Brickley
3. Pre-Game festivities ( O Canada, and the star Spangled Banner
4. 1 more ref and 2 linesmen
5. Make Gameplay More believable
6. w/ new commentators you should change scoreboard layout. (if Mike Emrick & Eddie Olczyc it should look as if being broadcast on NBC Sports
7. on the fights when u punch people with large visors your hand should get cuts on it
Be a Pro (goalie)
1. MAKE IT EASIER TO SAVE ONE TIMERS there are too many times where I move the analog stick to make the goalie go from left to right and my goalie just stays there
2.the goalie fights look suckish in NHL12 c’mon they wouldn’t throw off their masks
3. make desperation save improve ( dive across crease or on certain rebounds make there be battles in front
As in NHL 2002, I’d like to save in the middle of the game and finish it a few days later!
1. First person view
2. Be a referee mode
3. Be a commentary person
4. Create your own arena
Be a Pro
1. Request a Trade
2. Contract Negotiations
3. Morning Skate
4.Pre Game Warm up
5. Fan Popularity
6. Player Interviews
7. Skills Competition
Be A GM
1 ability to Sign Extensions during season
2 more realistic Trades
3. Hire and fire REAL COACHES
4 Contract Negotiations in NHL 2k9 they had a system where you went back and forth with the player, if you played your cards right you could negotiate a lower contract. if you messed up they could demand more or walk… it was more realistic.. the way it is on NHL 12 is wrong as it is now your forced to pay whatever the player wants.
5. Players overall rating go up and down based on performance(SEE MADDEN 12)
6.Pregame Warm ups
7 Morning Skates
8 Press Conferences//interviews with media
9.SKILLS COMPETITION
10. Player discipline(suspensions)
11. Realistic injuries not crazy random ones…
Game play
1. While moving Stick, players feet should keep moving, it wrong that when i move the puck to the right my player just coasts. the skaters feet should keep moving while moving the puck
2. Fix fighting make it more realistic, Clutching, wrestling, third man in, refs jumping in keep the players on the ice, weird how everyone disappears…
3, 4 REFS on the ICE!
The NHL skills competition! How sick would it be to be able to do the trick shot competition, relay race, etc. in the GM mode and as a game mode!!!
The Sabres goal horn has been very incorrect ever since the game was produced for next gen systems. It would be a simple and nice fix for the game. Also, I agree that the commentary is incredibly stale, and I miss having Jim Hughson!
In NHL 13 u should make
-warmups
-practice were u can just shoot around without a goalie and like 10 pucks
-3on3 mode
-more legends like bobby Orr
- in create a player u can customize a stick
And there are alot more that would be awesome if u could change that stuff. Thanks for reading
1. KHL league
2. Skill competition
3. Player cards in HUT would change, when players change team
4. Money in EASHL and you can buy better bot players to your team, different logos, shirts, arenas…
I forgotted from earlier post:
5. Legend team should be made from legend players, not Stamkos, Chara, Malkin… There should only be Legend players
6. Old teams like: Finland 1995, Edmonton 83-84, Colorado 03-04, Winnipeg 92-93 and so on.
In be a pro if you go to a team with average captains/alternate captains and you perform exceptionally should should get the C. They should have an international tournament like they had in nhl 10 that you can get called up to in be a pro mode, eg. if you are from finland and you are leading the league in points you will get called up to play in the worlds tournament. Have in gm mode and be a pro have the all star skills competitions, like in nba 2k how they have the 3-point comp and dunk comp you could do fastest skater, break away challange and hardest shot challanges. Finally it would be awsome if you could create your own team and bring them into be a gm mode in the NHL, hence you can make your own team, draft players and play in the NHL in regular season.
You should be able to save multiple sets of goalie pads in BaP

yer be able to be nominated captain for all star game and pick your players
FOR ONCE CAN THERE BE LINE BRAWLS AND ALSO MAKE THE GAME SO THAT ONCE YOU GET 3 FIGHTS IN A GAME YOU ARE OUT INSTEAD OF ALLOWING A SINGLE PLAYER TO HAVE 5 FIGHTS A GAME!!!!!!!!
I wish that the other leagues (Elitserien and Sm-Liiga) will be done better. Nowadays you can play only 1 season with a team in those leagues and in NHL you can play 25 seasons (!) So i hope that the gamemakers will concentrate more on other leagues than NHL.
- Entire Create-A-Team needs to be revamped, something similar to the NCAA Football games. Complete uniform, team name, arena, upload logos, etc. customizations.
- Include NCAA Teams and Tournaments – if not, then let us have more customization like above to create our own like the first point
- Make a real Broadcast View, the current one has the camera on some zipline. Why? It should stay at one point at center ice and just pivot the view, not directly on the side of the puck at all times.
1. Pree talk before game
* talk to injured players
* standing
* players form
2. Reward gala.
* Players recived the trophys
3. All star game, put challange in the game.
* All the players challang like highest shoot
,Dribbling and speeding.
4. Make be a pro more realistic.
* Practice, talk to agent, talk to coch,
5. Please, make it harder for the one timers to go in..
Make your own intro with fire thats goes up when the players coming in. Download music from Spotify. The players could time the music better too.
1) Warm up before game/be a pro
2)Be a ref
3)3 stars
4)all star game, skills compition
5) request to be traded/be a pro
6)show in the locker room/before and after game
Make the game playable in single-player mode. The computer AI is so bad in NHL 11/12 that I consider them some of the worst games I’ve ever played–sports or not.
Make the computer drive to the net on rushes. They strategy makes them go to the corner or go right into you almost every time. Instead of trying to find an AI on rushes based on the offensive strategy just make the offside winger go straight at the backside post until they can improve this. Make it possible to hit somebody on a 2-1 break.
College teams.
Create an alternate jersey for your team in Be A GM.
Better trading in BAGM-no this would make our team too athletic, or we want to reduce our offensive surplus.
Better passing. This needs redone from scratch. IT is almost impossible to hit somebody with a pass in this game.
Stop having the player receiving a pass stop when they catch it, every player in the league can catch a pass in stride.
Improve the offensive and defensive strategy in single-player mode. Forecheck only changes how much the defensemen pinch. Regardless of your forecheck it is impossible to get 2 forwards after the puck carrier deep. They always go and latch onto the wingers immediately and the D pinch.
Improve the break outs. When you come around the net w/ the D the forwards almost always cross into the middle and you can’t move the puck up the boards.
Make the players breaking through the neutral zone either quit crossing, or quit running into each other in center ice when they cross.
Improve the goalies. When no matter how good you are the computer still lets in one of the first 2 shots of the game, and 70% of the total shots the game is flawed.
Fix the reffing. It is stupid to have a player just standing there and get a penalty after the whistle.
Fix the computer from taking ridiculous angles. They constantly skate just ahead of you and skate straight into the sideboards so that you get a penalty when you check them. Also get rid of the ridiculously easy tie-ups along the boards. A 5’8″ 170lb player standing still can’t pin a 6’5″ 245lb player skating full speed.
Fix the pokechecks. The computer is too good at them no matter how you change the sliders. They will poke the puck off of a player w/ good puck control all the way down the ice to a streaking winger–this is common, not an anomaly.
Fix the player attribute effect. Even with the slider set all the way players w/ speed 75 will constantly be faster than players w/ speed 90, even if they are on a 5 minute shift.
NHL 12 and probably NHL 13 are the first games I won’t buy in years from EAs NHL franchise because of how bad they are.
Be a Pro mode where you control the whole team and not just the player. If he gets traded or called up you just control the whole team then too. Kind of like what Madden had a few years ago.
Keep better stats. It would be nice to see more than the last 4 seasons’ statistics. Also keep all-time leaders and records like every single baseball game has been doing for years.
The whole NHL series used to be innovative, but it is so tired right now that I think they are just sucking money out of people using the excuse that they will update it when the new system comes out. Well guess what? If all the games suck for 5 years a lot of people won’t want to buy the new system.
Adding to my previous list:
1.) Add a Franchise mode. I’m tired of playing 1 season with a team and having to start over again.
2.) Add BLOCKED SHOTS as a stat category. The commentators talk about blocking shots in the game but there’s no official stat category for it.
desack makes some really good points, and adding to that the goalies are meant to be good now at reading the play and reacting, however when you skate in they just follow the puck, they have no concept of their positioning in front of goal , and when there are players screening in front of the net the goalies don’t attempt to see the puck carrier they just stand there and hope to get hit by the puck, so the shooter just shoots into the space and scores while the goalie goes ohh look at the pretty puck in my net,
It’s also really frustrating when a massive defensemen has the agility and manuverability of a winger thats half their size when they clearly don’t.
Finally whats up with the players getting dragged down when they try and protect the puck, no joke when you push A on xbox your player skates with the puck out to the side to protect it however 9 times out of 10 they get dragged down by a defensemen thats not even close to them.
Ok so this isn’t related to bagging out NHL 12 however i got a hat-trick with my BAP who is 71 overall 3.01minutes into the game lol pretty damn pleased with myself, that is all.
Go Redwings
Sickest idea, in NCAA football 12 you have a universal trophy room it has different categories, player awards, championships, bowl trophies and rivalry game trophies.
My idea is to have something similar, like your profiles trophy room which displays your personal records across the game modes, achievements, and trophies you have won in be a gm mode or other tournament modes, and a separate trophy room specifically for your be a pro mode, which you can access through the menu in BAP mode. It can display your jersey’s from teams you have played for, i.e. NHL, AHL, CHL, International, AllStar jerseys and it keeps a record of your best results i.e., most goals in 1 period, most goals in 1 game, most hits, assists, blocked shots, fights, point-streak for games, seasons etc.(i know that they have your stats in BAP mode however the layout is boring and plain) also what i want most is to display any trophies you have won, e.g. League titles, Player awards, All-star comp awards( i don’t know if you actually get an award for like hardest shot etc but they could make some symbolic award or whatever) and hopefully Ea listens to me and puts in the chance to rep for your country in BAP mode so you can have your worlds medals.
I think that this trophy room idea would go along way to help improve the reality and excitement that should be generated when you play BAP
also in nhl 12 the commentators are morons, they say that the other team, “ohh that really was a team they should have beaten, u gotta beat the bad teams” we are first! how deos that makes us a “bad team” we dominate, and it has happened more than once
Adding to my previous post
Have the winter claccic in detroit against the toronto maple leafs
A stanly cup parade in your home town
id be happy with a traverse city
Here’s my list:
1. instead of playing for an OHL team before getting drafted in be a pro mode, you should be able to play for your countries world junior team.

3. request a trade in be a pro mode and be able to negotiate a 1 way contract.

18. KHL including the 2010-2011 Lokomotiv Yaroslav players and coaches/staff as tribute would be nice. With the new team too.
19. Like in Madden 12, you can create the stadium for the team. In NHL 13, you should be able to create the stadium, customize the amount of seats, goal horn, the ads on the boards, etc.
20. Real coaches
21. Improve Hockey Ultimate Team, in Madden Ultimate Team there is no salary cap, do the same in NHL 13
22. Have an All-Star Fantasy Draft, Skills Competition and Game in Season Mode, Be A GM, Be A Pro, etc.

34. See your player travel to the games, maybe practices
35. See your pro get drafted at the draft with a draft board, audience and everything
36. Make blocked shots a stat category
37. Make a full legends team, no NHL players on it at all not even malkin or any body
38. Make the players skills much more realistic. Like speed, shot power and hit power all that depending on the player. Like gionta hitting Chara and knocking him down when barely hits him? no not realistic
39. Seriously EA, fix the way the skaters skate, they look like they have a dookie in their pants
40. REAL National Anthems
41. For the online leagues you can do with friends, add a fantasy draft as an option with an All-Star Game for the best performing players
42. Fix the problem how the computers always dump and chase. However they never get the puck back.
43. SERIOUSLY EA THIS IS A BIG ONE GET RID OF THE GLITCH GOAL. Its been on NHL since NHL 11 and its annoying how the kids that glitch goal think they are really good.
44. Player emotions. when angry they hit and fight, when happy the try to score more(just dont over do it too much, EA tends to love doing that).
45. Realistically looking arenas, inside and out

Oh yeah and be able 2 make contact from bench, teams mates get in fights or jump in after big hits, every player on both team jump in whole team can fight
Yer the captaincy is a big mess that im suprised they havent amended already, In BAP im leading the league in goals,assists and plus minus yet im not even the alternate captain WTF.
Also when you play in the nhl with your created pro why cant you be shown pre game as “the player to watch in this game” its bullshit, im the MVP of the league and i havent once been shown pregame as a player to watch.
It would be awsome to see some differnt dekes available and make them a bit easier to pull off, not so precise with the thumbsticks.
1. Be able to customize the tape on your stick. (Like tape the toe, non toe stuff like that! that would be a pretty cool assest to the game.
2.Bring back old hockey sticks like the easton se16 and stuff like that.
3.National anthems

They need to fix all the sticks and pucks going through the COUMPUTER
Seriously, there should be these things in NHL 13:
1. Be a coach mode
2. Hire/Fire coaches
3. Empty seats in the arena when the team is struggling
4. Being able to customize the arena
5. Hardcore fans
6. Heacoaches getting angy after a bad call
7. and More more
****SERIOUSLY I’VE BEEN BUYING ALL THE NHL GAMES SINCE 1998 AND I’D LIKE TO HAVE A BE A COACH MODE IN THAT GAME***
1. every/most goaltenders should have there own styles, brodeur doesnt play like no brodeur up to now
2.new announcers
3. whats with these fake looking coaches ????
4.players should have own dekes there special personal moves.
5. ask for a trade in be a pro.
Make the instigation of fights legit, example: if you have a created player who barely ever or never fights, but they are getting hacked and beaten on the whole game then they should retaliate or at least have a teammate who’s an enforcer retaliate for them. It’s bull how a player can get slashed in the face and not want to hit the player back, that and checking from behind and stuff, also i swear i saw my created player get punched in the face while skating and nothing happened, if EA want to make the hitting and fighting more realistic they have to accommodate for the situations in which they happen not just how they look while in that situation.
If a player is known for getting high PIMS and throwing cheap shots then make the ingame character do it, if i get pulled down cheaply on a breakaway and dont get awarded a penalty shot im gonna get pissed and wanna hit the rat player who dogged me, simple.
1. Possibility to get players from European leagues in GM mode
2. Real National team jerseys (flags look shitty)
3. Faster goalies and some reality to goalie passing and ability to take the puck from goalie
4. Uploading own logo designs or some in game logo editor
5. ADD DOMINIK HASEK TO THE LEGENDS
To be honest…i really love NHL 07, 08, 09, …, 12. But when you want to improve your game you have to look at real NHL-games to see (or better feel) whats missing.
- New Announcers (You need to feel the passion of the game. You need to hear more names just to be more into the game. They have to keep the fire burning with celebrating goals and getting loud when the goalie does a huge stop or the puck hits the post. Like: “Lupul, to Perry…shoots, SCOOOOORES! What a goal by Corey Perry)
- More Warm-up Scenes (A real NHL Fan is watching his guys getting ready for the game. Stretching and bending on the Ice. The Goalie getting his pads in position to make that one save to keep his team in the game)
- More individual Goalie styles (Thomas is acting completely different than Price. But you also have to see or feel it. Rookies are doing more mistakes, than the all-star goalies, but sometimes even they have awesome games.)
- Locker room scenes (To make you feel like your watching a real tv show)
- Other changes:
1) not only 1 ref on the ice
2) 3 Stars selection
3) Better A.I.
4) Latest Goalie masks
5) more authentic goal horns/songs
6) suspensions
1) The ability to update your roster to real world rosters in Season mode and Be a Pro modes. ( so having the abilityto continue playing your game mode without starting all over again because you want an updated roster.)
2) More bug fixes and realistic skating++
3) More roster updates avaliable

My NHL 13 Wish list
1. Have all Referees on the ice not just 1
2. Better Goalies (More realistic Hits on goalies )
3. Computer reacts on hits on teammates come at you more harder and realistic
4. Concussions and more suspensions on hits
5. Have realistic team stadium music, HORNS!! And Crowd sounds on each team and not the same for every team be able to download own music when it changes around the league

7. Different Languages , French Canadian, and American for stadium Announcers and play by play
8. 3 stars
9. More realistic game play (still off)
10. Better power play and penalty killing setups for the computers different looks for each team (to easy now)
11. Make the playoffs feel like the playoffs, More tight, Harder to score, Checking, Fighting, the crowd get into it more !
I really just want goalies to be able to be injured during game play and for the computers tough guys to offer you out or have the other team come after you for a dirty hit.
my favorite thing about NHL 12 is the Winter Classic mode and the classic jerseys that the teams wear. even though im a die hard caniac i find myself replaying all the winter classic games! My biggest problem was that some jerseys were missing!!!!
So please include ALL classic jerseys for 13! You should also include the Heritage Classic as a playable mode, allowing you to choose the outdoor venue, football arena or baseball diamond!!!
And you should also think about jersey DLCs!
PLEASE fix the Carolina Hurricanes center ice red line, the actual red line has the nuatical flag for hurricane (red and black square)!!!!!!!! Its been on the ice for a long time now and we hosted the 2011 all star game!

Better/ more skill moves. And basically copy FIFA for all game modes especially be a pro. They got that game right on and NHL would be ten times the game FIFA is if they implemented the same or similar ideas. this includes things like the shoot around arena mode before games and at the main menu. The way you improve your virtual pro is also awesome where you have to accomplish specific actions whilst playing

1) Clean up most of the European teams. Keep:
-SM Liiga

2) Total Career Freedom:
Age 15-18: Choose CHL, Jr A or USHL
Age 17-18: Ability to choose NCAA path (if USHL player)
As NCAA Player: Choose when to go pro when offered a contract
As NHL Rookie: Ability to turn down entry level deal and go FA
As NHL Player: Request Trade
3) Shorten the BAP in-game sims. Allow an option so that when the player presses the button to return to the bench it automatically skips to him jumping off the bench for his next shift.
4) Be A GM: Add some more subjective factors to trade science instead of fixed trade values, such as how the player is playing in his current season, the length of his contract, cap hit, how content he is with team performance etc.

i would like there to be the echl (east coast hockey league) and for there to be the little leagues like: squirts, pee wees, bantam ect. And game modes life be a ref or be a coach. Plus if you were to finish playoff or season mode there would be all the stuff like fastest shot or fastest skater. and i would like to see pregame, during, and after game interviews. i would like to be able to do pregame warm-ups.finnaly i would like to be abl to do mini-games like madden has.
i agree with everyone else
1) in be a pro able where you can leave the dressing room before and after the game and leave the arena to go to a taxi to go to the hotel.
2)More than one ref.
3)pre-game warmups
4) Have a online in game store to download the newer equipment that isn’t in the game.

5. more referees to choose
6. pre-game warmups

please can you make that
I think club should have custom arenas make it feel like its your custom home arena not where all arenas look the same, put a “C” or “A” on the jersey for players better computer AI in club so people actually have to change there gameplan and not do the same thing over and over again. change the fighting im tired of everyone just flicking the stick as fast as they can for an easy win theres no skill in that and it takes away from the realism of the game. be a pro should try to match nba2k12 “my player mode” im not hateing on nhl’s be a pro but i can only play it for so long before tiring from it, nba keeps glued to it with the endorsements, trades, award and allstar races, you get to sponsor your own shoe theres just so much more depth and i think nhl should reramp theres.
1) scrums after whistle and line fights in which players pair up and fight and possibly multiple fights at once with the ref breaking it up
2)suspensions in be a pro and be a gm
3)new commentary
4)have a profile in be a pro mode that shows salary, trophys, reputation, fan popularity,
5)A trophy ceremony like the one in las vegas
6)cheap shots to star players and hits or plays that cause injuries will result in that player being targeted
7)exchange of words before a fight and new fight startup animations,
8)multiple collision physics where more than two players can collide and also collisions with ref
- TD Garden and other arenas that aren’t named
- Better fighting
- College teams/tournaments (BEANPOT!!)
- More then one ref
You should be able to customize more things.
Bap trade request.
Be able to customize your sticks like curve, color, etc.
more refs.
ref mode.
pre game warm ups.
have a in game store where you can spend your salary on equipment that isnt in the game.
skills comp.
Bap allstar game and skills competition.
before game interviews.
after game interviews.
watch your guy in the locker room.
pewee to pro like nhl slapshot.
more goalie customization.
different color laces.
better checking engine.
EASHL should have better AI.
customize your goalie mask like put graphics on it.
make the equipment look more like it does in real life.
older equipment like the One95 skates.
its not a matter of adding stuff…i think thats for the next gen console, now i think they should get the stuff they have now to run smoothly, there menus are slow, way too many glitch goals that need to be patched, it would be nice to have all those additions but until they get every thing else running good i dont think they need to add too much…another ajustment they should make though is pick your position during or after team selection
in eashl, and also better matchmaking in eashl so legend champs arent playing amature league
Make NHL available for the PS Vita so I can play it anywhere!
ALRIGHT GUYS HERES MY WISHLIST THAT WOULD MAKE NHL 13′ THE BEST HOCKEY GAME EVER MADE!
1. BETTER, REALISTIC, and MORE INTENSE commentating PLEASE! Sign DOC EMERICK to do the broadcasting!!! HE IS THE VOICE OF HOCKEY NOW! Gary Thorne and Bill Clement are so BORING and LAME!!!
2. BETTER FIGHTING PLEASE! The fighting engine is horrible in both 11′ and 12′. EA needs to step up on this. Here’s an example: ELIMINATE the 1st Person view. Just leave it on the players camera preference and have the fight go on with the same camera view you are playing with. In this case, it would be in 3rd person view. Just like back in NHL 96′ This would be cool because as you’re playing you would never know when a fight would break out then you see the gloves and sticks drop and YOUR READY to fight! ALSO, players can be able to size up and move around before they fight, have referees break up the fight, pull jerseys, and have players watch along. THIS WOULD BE SO SICK!!!
3. ADD linesmen on the ice PLEASE!!
4. Checking physics are AWESOME! If EA can make it better, GO FOR IT!
5. Please UPGRADE after the whistle fights. Have players actually tangle up and shove each other more. We want to see the enforcers jump in and start more brawls, have gloves, sticks drop. etc etc. JUST LIKE IN REAL HOCKEY!
6. The Broadcast view is LAME! 2k Sports had their Broadcast camera view almost as real as it gets. EA its not hard to do! SO UPGRADE PLEASE!!
7. DOWNLOADABLE content via Xbox LIVE. 2k has this feature also! EA can’t do this?? Updated Custom Rosters, Arena Music, Realistic Sliders, etc.
8 ZAMBONIES!!! ZAMBONIES!! ZAMBONIES!! During intermission HAVE ZAMBONIES on the ice!! Just adds more realism and depth to the game! 2k Sports had this in their hockey games.
9. Intermission Report with Pierre McGwyer?? WHY NOT??? Again, adds more realism and depth to the game. Have highlights or scores from other games in Franchise mode.
10. Add an NHL.com feature in Franchise Mode where you can have trade rumors, headlines throughout the league, all star voting, injury report, playoff races, etc etc. 2k does this too lol.
11. Have the option to play other games in Franchise mode. So if your team gets eliminated during the playoffs you can continue to finish the rest of the playoffs playing with other teams. Just makes it more fun. 2k also had this option.
12. Have the option to SKATE WITH THE CUP!! WOULD BE AWESOME!!
13. REAL coaches and assistant coaches on the benches.
14. Better and more realistic face-offs. Just like in the 2k sports games. You actually can see the players skate to face-off. Also, have some players get waived off face-offs too.
15. Add SHANAHAN to Franchise Mode! Would be fun to suspend some players. This would be a good feature to add.
Finally, do we really need a Be A Legend mode? I mean yeah its cool to have the old school players in the game, but imagine how much EA can add into the game for more realistic features rather then have LEGENDS in the game. Just a waste of space. Come on, EA! Lets see how better you can make NHL 13…
THERE YA GO! That would make THE perfect hockey game.
I would love to see..
1) more jerseys from the teams past.. Like islanders fisherman one and tampa with the lightning on it and old ducks ones. Dont really get how last seasons third senators jersey isnt available yet people in the crowd are wearing it in the game??
Have the actual international jerseys. (canada, usa etc..)
2) Be able to request a trade in be a pro mode.
3) Be able to submit a list amd have a no trade clause
4) Better Goal Celebrations
5) Better all around graphics and look in crowd and game
6) Player interviews, in be a pro mode after the game and while your getting drafted. (like madden used to do)
7) Show the Locker room
9) Be able to turn down entry level contracts as a rookie in be a pro
9) Be able to request to talk to agent, like how madden did and hold a press confrence and all.
Two very simple yet awesome solutions:
1) Create a skills competition. 2K series did an awesome job of this.
2) Give the option of choosing your user blip colours when playing online. Too often when playing with one more than one person online, they give you purple/blue, or orange/yellow, or green/teal. Makes it difficult to identify exactly which player you are.
Can’t wait for the new game to come out!
All that needs to be added is multi-user team on be a gm and ill be happy.
1) – BAP Goalie:
warm-ups
- more natural movement!
- more goalie customization!
- if you have best GAA, S%, SO, etc…shouldn’t you win a trophy or two?!
2) College career
3) International play/Olympics!!!
4) new commentary
5) 3 stars
6) request trade in Be A Pro
7) better player facial features/customization
9) new Stanley Cup celebrations
Fix the glitchy goals, in games you can just obviously know when the opposing team is gonna score and i hate that! It makes it not realistic
In Be A Pro
1. Need Olympic and World Junior Play
2. Trade requests
3. Coaching staff should put you on the powerplay if you’re scoring. For instance, I play as an offensive defenseman, lead the team in scoring, and am not on the PP, even though I have a higher rating than the guys on the PP and more points.
4. A trophy room where you can view trophies won, team photos, and jersey collections
5. Accurately assign Captains and Alternates. Also they should affect their team’s play. A leadership attribute should be involved.
6. More options for when your contract is up
oh and more jerseys!!! national team jerseys and teams jerseys. you’ve had these jerseys in the past, why can’t we still have these jerseys?
Add ERSTE BANK EISHOCKEY LIGA
Add Croatia and Slovenia national teams
Pretty much everything from above, and the #1 thing NHL13 needs:
All Star Week!!!! Draft/Skills/Game
1. Make player stats more realistic over time. (after 10 seasons in be a Gm, there are too many 90+ players that teams can’t sign etc if you want to play with max salarycap). For example make potential less important, and make performance more important on player developement. Like if a “80″ center scores 70 points he should have like “85″ next season. Maybe a bit drastic but you get the point. Or any other system that makes the players development more controlable.
2. In be a gm, be able to trade players with other leauges (European) and se the players stats from other leauges, which also should have importance in those players developement.
3. While in be a gm, be able to be GM for a nationalteam aswell and pick out your own roster for the world championchip and the olympics! Would be really cool. Ofcourse you should be able to pick from all leauges then, especially if you are a team that doesn’t have enough NHLplayers.
4. “Create your own leauge” would be a nice idea. Since the debate about a european leauge, I think many europeans atleast fantasises alot about it. For example choose Conferences, Divisions, rink size, point systems etc.
5. Update the “welcome to arena voice”, in Sweden all teams has “welcome to Stockholm…” it ruins the feeling of choosing your favourite team.
6. Make it impossible to find glitches in trading up your trade value etc. Your improving from year to year, but still it’s too easy!
7. Also be able to pick out roster and play as a worldjuniorteam!
1. 3rd person fighting. I think you should go old school with button fighting instead of throwing the joystick back and forth.
There could be someway to initiate the fight buttons. There would be no whistle and transfer. It would just be real time.
Perhaps you could throw punches whenever you wanted. But any time punches start getting thrown there will definitely be a penalty. If the other player starts fighting back you get fighting majors. If not you could get roughing, or game misconduct.
Maybe you could have an initiate fight button, and if they accept you start going at it. But if not, you can press a button to start fighting them anyway, and that’s when you risk getting thrown out. But there team mate might run in, or you may injure them or something.
2. The ability to copy and past things when creating your jerseys. That way you can use the same stinking colors instead of trying to figure which blue you used on the sweater to match the gloves. (Unless this is already a feature I am missing)
1. New commintators pls!
2.linesman
3.pls pls bring back Orginal 6 teams to play
4. You shouldn’t have to pay $60 for the game and have to unlock the legends u should just be able to get them for free, I didnt pay that much to spend forever unlocking the legends
1. historical rosters for each team, for example, the 80′ islanders, 94′ rangers, 07′ mighty ducks, 92′ penguins
2. the ability to create folded franchises
3. skills competition
4. be able to retire your own jersey numbers
5. hire/fire coaches in Be a GM
6. custom arenas
360 degree fighting
better ai in EASHL becuase they suck at defending and passing
defend cross crease better
be a pro request a trade
HUT no carrer becuase you cant enjoy the player
heritage classic and winter classic availabe in GM and be a pro
fix the leveling of EASHL becasue people have lives and they dont play all dayy and i think that it should be less games when u reach legend level
More refs
Make your own arena for your team
Show in the Dressing Room Before game and during intermission
3 stars back
New names for created teams
Have training camp to make the roster
Goal horns/song for that specific team.
pre game speeches
Practices where you earn skill points
Collage hockey as well as chl
Heritage classic
overall more intensity
EBEL!!!!!! (because there are the best European hockey teams)

For NHL 13,
1. Allow your be a pro created player to be selected to the national team for the olympics and other world hockey events.
2. Retire your be a pro created players jersey at the end of their career and get inducted into the hall of fame.
3. Honour the retired jerseys of current teams. For example, you can’t wear #9 in Detroit or #4 in Boston.
In SM-League the teams best pointman carries a golden helmet so i think they should fix that and in previous NHL’s in SM-Leagues there’s only one ice hockey stadium unlike in NHL every team has it’s own arena so they should fix that
1. In EA Sports hockey league when someone pauses the game a computer should take over for them in the meanwhile so the game doesn’t pause for EVERYONE
2. In EA Sports hockey league you should also be able to skate up to someone on the other team and talk to them in certain ranges (asking to fight etc)
3. In BAP you should be able to request a trade or ask for a higher position on the team (captaincy)
3. Goalies should be able to be captains and have customizable masks or at least the masks they have in real life.
4. When you become a legend your jersey should be retired and on a banner at the top of the arena in a ceremony before a game after you retire.
5. In Be a GM Mode you should be able to hire or fire staff.
6. You should be able to download a game face like in FIFA when you upload a picture of your self and put it on your created player.
7. In creation mode you should be able to customize facial features completely to your liking
The most exciting part of a game is after somone has a big hit or cheap play, players will come after him. Big player scrums get everyone in the arena on their feet, so if they brought it into the game in would have a similar effect. Im sorry but after I smash Baby Crosby (who should be injured) into the boards after the whistle, I expect more than everyone to pretend like it didnt even happen.

1) get rid of gary thorne. Add someone else. Or better yet, add local commentary for each home town.
2) ENABLE BLOOD IN FIGHTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and get rid of the first person fighting to, I dont think anyone likes it
bring it back to pc platform with dx11 graphics and a mod kit like skyrim
not a rehased version of nhl 2005 3 years straight
1.HISTORIC TEAMS LIKE1976-77 CANADIENS/83-84 OILERS/82-83 ISLANDERS/73-74 FLYERS/91-92 PENGUINS ETC.
INCLUDE ALL ROSTER #S AND NAMES FROM THAT SEASON TOO!!! PLZZZ!
My one suggestion is in detail but I think a majority of people would praise the idea.
Imagine the ability in EASHL to create your own club entirely from scratch. From editing your CPU players’ attributes to designing your own logo (Black Ops style).
CPU players should be permanent to a club. The CPU gains attributes like a player, and the owner/GM gets to place them in the correct slots that they desire. The reason I am for this is because I hate having AI players on my team because 99% of the time they ruin the experience for me by making terrible plays. And I feel that if I am able to place all of their attributes in, then it should be my fault because I made a terrible player, right?
Also, Glitch Goals. We all know every issue of NHL has one. But can EA please try their absolute best to get rid of all of them?
Next, create plays for the club just like Be A Pro and offline NHL. I feel this would be insane. Make defensive plays and offensive plays that could help a club break out on the rush and also be able to keep a solid penalty kill. And by creating plays, I also want it to be more in-depth. Like, when a player should dump a puck, shoot it into the other zone to cycle it, and even have a zone for when a player should shoot it.
When I said full customization of EASHL, I meant it. I feel that every club would be different. And maybe if the CPU attribute idea comes out, maybe we could work in 1-man clubs? I play with other people but usually they are not online so I would love to play and/or practice by myself in a scrimmage of something.
That was my idea, and thank you for reading.

1. Dirty Player (as a player type) I like Cooke and Avery.
2. More Injuries that are more realistic(such as KO’s with epic hits)
3. trade request
4. press interviews/autographs/ fan Interactions for some kind of reputation score.
5. Being able to start/build/end team/player rivalries.
6. Hockey Tempers.
7. the fights, please.. what about sweater/jersey pull overseeing and the ability for multiple skaters to fight all the way to team fights.
8. Every player in the game has teeth… fix this
9. What happened to the blood in hockey games? or is that just a sega genesis thing?
10. Multi game suspensions for actions on the ice. EAL online possibility??
11. be cool to see coaches freaking out or argue with the refs.
12. how about ref physics? getting hit with a puck or caught up in the boards/collision with players. (some times I just want to put the ref through the glass or hit Him with a slap shot)
13. highlights of the plays and hits of the week summary(not just our games). like a little espn sports center show.
14. player moral with requests to be traded to and from your team.
This is just what I would like to see. Ill be in Afghanistan when it comes out, be nice to come home to a sweet new null game.
