As the only license this game has is NHL, please make the NHL game the priority. We should have all the rules of the NHL work (waivers is the one that comes to mind but there are others), the new CBA should be reflected next season like real life, the graphical interface should be worthy of the NHL, and the 2D simulator should accurately reflect what the tactics say they do so teams actually play differently (to include additional changes in the playoffs. I also should see a marked difference between an NHL game and an ECHL game in the simulator but I don't.

As far as fixes, it would be the same things I say every season:

- Both players names on the fighting penalty pop-up, not just one
- Players whose demands go down the longer they go unsigned
- An evolving salary cap
- More advanced stats
- IR and LTIR rules like the NHL (which are changing again)
- Hits should do more to alter a player's trajectory or stop them for a few seconds if it knocked them down and it would be nice if the player icon change color or there was a sound when a big hit happens so I know the difference between a body check, stick check, or players just bumping into each other
