A parade to the box for slashes and cross checks.

That looks more like the FU ramjag.

Their might be a melt down on certain forums if the group celebration isnt in the game.

No secret that passing or sometimes receiving a pass just sux. I'll be happy if this comes to fruition:

Passing

♦Faster pass animations for more control and responsiveness.
♦Ability to pass to players and have them stay still and not move into every puck. This will help offensive zone passing when set up in the zone or if want to pass D to D during regroup.
♦Various improvements to pass accuracy and targeting.
♦Improved pickups for close range passing.

Going to feel odd playing against Boston and David Backes as well as Calgary with Brouwer and Moose.

OK Dragons, once the Beta hits here we should all get our best imagination and ideas for our next season jersey and stadium. For example, I would like an arena with a jumbo screen that would create Ice. Who cares about the hairdos but I look forward to test some of the new classes.

Meh, some new hairdos and facial customization is nice IMO. There were basically no options last year.

The new player classes seem pretty interesting. I think it's a good idea to have a whole bunch of player classes to choose from if you're not ranking up your player with XP so you can still have a somewhat tailor-made player you like.

Typical EA hype. Last year it was the playoffs beards. Other than the Jagr mullet how visible will your hairdo look if you got the helmet to cover it? Give me better servers where we don't get kicked out, where we don't lag, where passing is more organic (actually they maybe on to something here in 17) and I'll be happy

We will get to see the hairdos in Ice Dragon games when the hat is in the net with the silver spoon.

I liked what I read and saw in the new trailer. The new classes look solid. We are gonna light some mother effers up in our weak ass barn!

I like the drop in features...staying with your lobby or meeting with friends and making a group before entering the lobby.

Do we go with a new color scheme for the Dragons this year? The Dragons could use some new colors IMO 8) Hopefully there is a sweet ass dragon logo we can unlock after 15000 games :lol:

Just got my beta code in an email, so I'm betting we all did.

I've got an extra friend code if anybody didn't sign up but wants to try it. PM me.

Evidently you can play the beta today IF you are an NHL 17 insider (I am). Everyone else has to wait til tomorrow. Anyone here an insider? If you got 2 extra codes that means you must have signed up for insider.

I procrastinated on signing up for the beta, so I don't have a code. If anyone still has one to spare, I'd be grateful. Otherwise I'll enjoy vicariously through video clips :P
