Update News
NHL Legends Now Available in NHL 15
November 10, in the year of our Lord 2014 – Your dream
NHL lineup is now ready for you to create. Electronic Arts
announced that starting today, NHL® Legends are available in NHL
15 Hockey Ultimate Team (HUT) for the PlayStation®4 and Xbox One
consoles. News on HUT Legends on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 will
be shared soon. With over 8 million games played and 34% player
growth from NHL 14 to NHL 15, Hockey Ultimate Team continues to
be the most popular mode in the NHL franchise. With NHL Legends,
there’s even more reason to play and improve or create the
perfect team of superstars from the past and present. Imagine
what’s possible when you have current Pittsburgh Penguins
captain Sidney Crosby picking up speed through the neutral zone
alongside former greats Mario Lemieux and the ‘Russian Rocket’
Pavel Bure, while Ray Bourque patrols your blue line and Patrick
Roy mans your goal crease. Each Legend will have their own
distinct look, unique attributes, and may be available in Gold
Packs.
Full List of HUT Legends
Wayne Gretzky
Quite simply the best player to ever lace them up. When you
consider that he had more assists (1,963) than anyone had
points, it really puts his offensive dominance into perspective.
Take control of The Great One, only in Hockey Ultimate Team.
Mario Lemieux
With an unparalleled combination of size, speed and skill,
Lemieux was arguably the most physically talented hockey player
to ever play the game. Experience why they called him Super
Mario.
Patrick Roy
With three Conn Smythe Trophies and the most playoff wins of
all-time, it’s not hard to see why many consider Roy the
greatest goalie of all time. His impact on the goaltending world
can still be felt today, as he popularized the butterfly style
used by most goaltenders today.
Ray Bourque
The highest scoring defenseman of all-time threw over 6,000
pucks in the net during his NHL career, with many of those
bulging the twine.
Joe Sakic
Burnaby Joe will go down as one of the best players and captains
of this generation. He surpassed the 100 point plateau six times
in his NHL career and won two Stanley Cup® Championships.
Unleash Sakic’s world-class wrist shot on helpless opponents in
HUT.
Nicklas Lidstrom
He made it look easy. With extraordinary awareness, stick work
and positioning, Lidstrom was dominant on the defensive side of
the puck. The seven-time Norris Trophy winner would be a perfect
fit for any team.
Pavel Bure
When Bure was on the ice, it looked like a video game. It wasn’t
just his explosiveness that separated him from the rest; it was
his ability to pull off high-skill plays at incredible speed
that made him almost impossible to stop.
Eric Lindros
For a period of time in the 1990’s Eric Lindros was the most
physically dominant player in the NHL. At 6’4” and 240 pounds,
‘The Big E’ could punish you on the ice and the scoreboard.
Mike Bossy
During his era, Bossy was the best pure goal scorer the NHL had
ever seen. He is the fastest player to score 100 goals and is
still the record holder for most goals-per-game.
Luc Robitaille
Lucky Luc wasn’t the fastest skater or the most gifted player on
the ice, but he always had a knack for being in the right spot
at the right time. He still stands as the NHL’s highest scoring
left winger of all-time.
Mike Modano
Drafted 1st overall in 1988 by the Minnesota North Stars, Modano
lived up to the hype. He was one of the best skaters of his time
and a prolific goal scorer – finishing his career as the highest
scoring American-born player in NHL history.
Jari Kurri
Kurri was an integral part of the Edmonton Oilers dynasty in the
1980’s and was known as Gretzky’s right-hand man. He finished
his career as the highest scoring European player in NHL history
with 601 goals and 797 assists.
Doug Gilmour
A fan favorite wherever he played, Gilmour was nicknamed
‘Killer’ because of his physical style of play despite his small
stature. He played a complete game and is a perfect fit anywhere
in your HUT lineup.
NHL 15 is the start of a new generation of hockey videogames,
where the sights, sounds and feel of the fastest team sport on
the planet come to life in a way players have never experienced
before. Featuring 12 Player NHL Collision Physics and Real Puck
Physics, NHL 15 captures the hard-hitting chaos and
unpredictability of the game of hockey. Players are immersed in
authentic arenas across the National Hockey League and hang on
every play called by an all-new broadcast commentary team led by
NBC Sports legends Mike “Doc” Emrick and Eddie Olczyk.
