Well after yesterday's article I bet some of you are like oh shit, now I'll have to play BAP for weeks in order to unlock the stuff. This is partially true as there are 3 main ways to boost yyour character in NHL 10. This post from the EASHL forum explains it all:

For the guy that neg rep'd this post with "inaccurate information", you're a buffoon. I'll break it down into internet style information, I understand you primates have difficult with full sentences.
You're options for adding points are the following:
1. You can earn your card just like 09
2. Position specific boost packs
3. Individual pieces of gear with boost slots
Now here's where it gets tricky, so concentrate.
Using boost slotted equipment (3) adds attributes to your current build. Which means it adds onto your card points. Using position specific boost packs replaces your card, and it's a package of gear - stick, gloves, and skates. So you can't use custom boost slotted gear on top of the position specific boost pack. But you can still use a helmet with boost slots, as the position boost packs don't come with helmets.
Simply:
card + boost slots = Yes
card + boost pack = No
boost pack + boost slots = No,aside from helmet
So, for max attributes, you will have to wear non-authentic equipment. Though the Kane equipment has boost slots, I hope there's more than a single option of authentic gear with boost slots, or about 70% of EASHL players will be wearing the exact same gear once the novelty of childish pretend gear wears off.
This site goes into it a bit more with pics but it's mostly the same information. Lastly here's the master list of stuff you can buy if you're not willing to play the game to unlock it. I know it's for the Xbox but it's all the same stuff that'll be on the PSN store Thursday. That's all you're going to get from me for a while since I'll be busy unlocking stuff starting tomorrow.
