v1.02 patch - fixed online desyncs, fixed the issue where a player would disappear for the rest of the game if that player was getting a delayed penalty and the other team scored a goal before the player regained possession of the puck, fixed some ditty bugs where the incorrect ditty would play, addressed the issue of the imported ditties not playing randomly, a couple of the goal horns were fixed, fixed a bug with German Play by Play.

v1.03 patch - fixed the problem where a team could not change team options in a peer-to-peer connection, fixed the problem with the strategy names inside the pause menu not being same as the ones in the front end, fixed the continous desync loop in online games that would occur sometimes with a big hitoff in the faceoff, fixed the Windows 2000 crash when creating a season, fixed a problem with a created player in a season, where assigning him to a team and then reassigning him to waivers would cause the Today in EA Sports Trades screen to crash
