I was just looking on the Gamestop website when I saw this. Don't know if its true. Peace.
New Battle for the Cup Mode: Experience the intensity of NHL playoff hockey. Play through injuries, intimidate rivals, and match lines as storylines carry across the entire series.
Build a Stanley Cup Champion: All-new GM mode lets you scout amateurs, put players on the trading block, hire staff, and earn experience points to become a legendary GM.
Battle on the Boards: Shield the puck with your body, kick-pass it to teammates, or pin your opponent against the boards with an all-new board play engine.
All-New First-Person Fighting: Change the momentum by trading blows with an NHL enforcer. Tug an opponent’s jersey to gain an advantage—before or after the whistle.
Become the Ultimate Pro: Improve your draft status by dominating the prospects game, then use new coaching tips, improved teammate AI, and detailed position instructions as you build the ultimate career.
Capture Multiple Championships: The coveted EA SPORTS Hockey League Cup is always up for grabs as new seasons start on a monthly basis online.
New Intimidation Tactics: Fore-check defenders, pressure the puck, and finish checks to force your opponent into mistakes, as players fatigue, bobble passes, and avoid collisions under threat of physical pressure.
All-New Post-Whistle Action: The action never stops! Antagonize opposing players, finish checks, retaliate for late shots on goal, draw penalties, and pick fights—all after the referee blows the whistle!

Over 800 games played and you don't know that RW goes on D for a penalty?

Battle for the Cup mode sounds like a playoff mode to me, which would be great.
The new Build a Stanley Cup Champion mode sounds promising, though I wish it was still called dynasty. I also hope it lasts for 25 years like last season. We'll see

ah, so you play in prospect games, and then get drafted. Cool, though this hampers my junior hockey hopes.

NHLPA '93 will always be the best hockey game until I can make Sidney Crosby's head bleed. |

I doubt Gamestop would lie, I am sure it's happened before but this seems legit

The Prospect games seem very cool. If they are going to have a Battle for the Cup Mode, it would be cool if you could relive the amazing past game 7's or play as a dynasty such as the 1980's Oilers or the 50's Canadians.

I'm not really believing any of this until I see hear from the dev's mouths themselves, but this seems almost impossible to me. I'm not buying it.

I questioned that as well. Though the other stuff seems legit to me except for the names, it would be kind of foolish to rename modes

Like I said, I have no clue if this is true until EA releases more info. I don't think Gamestop has ever been charged with False Advertising before.

Hence why I posted the Yoda picture. If the league is corrupt now.....imagine what it will become if there's a championship EVERY month.....Anarchy I tell you....Anarchy.
