Now, this is a game that no longer gets updates from SI. Hasn't in a long long time. But, the game is kept alive by the community. Roster updates, logos, facepacks and more all from the workshop. A great community driven game. This, despite being 10 years old, is way better than Franchise Hockey Manager. Only downside is that 2560x1440 displays are not supported, it will play in a window, you cannot fullscreen this game. But, it is still completely playable and fine.

If you've always enjoyed franchise mode in NHL and wanted to dip a little deeper into it, this is the answer. For me FHM could never quite scratch the itch the way EHM does. Someone asked why I have so much playtime and no review, so here my 2 cents after 2k hours. The UI is a little daunting early on but it's a similar learning curve to a complex 4X strategy game, once you put in a bit of time navigating becomes easy. Very good granularity on the level of control you have (can choose whether you or the computer via the head coach controls the bench during games, runs practice, chooses lines and chooses tactics). Scouting is extremely deep with the depth of leagues included. Can GM a team in virtually any league you can imagine (results may vary on compatibility, sometimes smaller leagues can be wonky). As far as I'm concerned Workshop is an absolute MUST. The TBL/Premier Pivot rosters are kept up to date at various points in the season (free agency, start of season, trade deadline, end of season, etc) by a dedicated community team with current players and youth/prospects being updated. The face and logo packs bring the UI and feel of the game to life, and adding in pictures yourself for coaches, team splash screens and pages really ties it together. The commmunity on the EHM Blueline site is extremely supportive, if you have a question there's a good chance it's already been answered somewhere on there, you can even find your way into an online league if you're feeling ambitious. This game is a community labour of love and there's a reason I play as much as I do.
