Goalies Shore Up Short-Side Saves In Latest NHL 17 Content Drop

Anyone who plays a lot of NHL 17 is familiar with the crazy frequency that short-side shots seem to beat goaltenders. Developer EA Canada is aware as well and hopes to shore up its leaky goaltenders with new post lean animations as a part of a larger content push available today.

To give more EASHL teams options when designing their look, the new content update also introduces some new logos, as well as 11 new goal celebration animations. Getting two EASHL teams together for a private match should be easier as well, thanks to a new drop-in feature that lets teams pair up using a unique four-to-six-digit ID number.
