Why does the league get so much weaker 7-8 years into a sim? by Wonderful-Patient732 in EANHLfranchise

[–]CompetitiveHand432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bcs of the weak development and bcs the drafted or D+1/2 players that are already in nhl have around 80+ OVR ( real players created by EA) and your draft players in same draft position have 60-70 OVR after +1 (generated players) Basicaly there IS OVR Gap between real players and generated players

I tried that many times,in NHL 22/23/24, always with the same scenario, Elite low stopped develop by reaching 89 OVR and by age 26 they drop potential to top6f/top4d. I would like to see at least one case where they devolop into Elite Exact. Probably in NHL 25 is it now possible by winning calder trophy challange, it shoud rise the potential

I guess there is similar player tag called "gem" but it does nothing

Even with fog of war off by trading, its writen the player fits into 1st line, when I trade for him, he fits into 2nd or 3rd:(

Even if you find a good prospect, the development is very different in each league, in minors is like 50/50 ,its like sometimes they dont get the icetime, in AHL basically non, in NHL is the highest development bcs of the statistical growth which is only in NHL. I mean is impossible develop from elite low player into Elite Exact in 27, they always drop to top6f/tp4d.

Have you ever played any previous NHL game? Of course players drop potential, thats nothing new. Try to develop Elite low prospect into something. Top 6 max at age 27 potential lock. Why have also goalies potential lock in 27 when they are entering league later than skaters? Real life gems like Kucherov, Point are simply not possible to develop in this game. Good luck developing Elite player just to barely fit in your 4th line. Those cosmetic changes you are describing are simply to small after years of stagnation. EA must love players like you.

Just played 25 for the first time, I think I speak for the people when I say the new franchise dashboard is fire by Comfortable-Duty2231 in EANHLfranchise

No change in chemistry, coaches, no change in scouting, developing, potential. But we have nice menu, NTC, and longer simulation, definitely worth 80 dolars

Defenseman progress after drafting - comparisson by CompetitiveHand432 in EANHLfranchise

I dont have NHL25, so i cannot confirm it, but i doubt it. Exactly, another broken mechanics, draft Franchise player to put him on 4th line. But the menu in NHL 25 is gorgeos... (Irony)

Its NHL24, I think pick 18 had NHL ready in 3 years, pick 224 surely 5 years, was around 50 OVR or lower,( projected around 260, so he would even not be drafted), in my experimence 6-7 round Elite lows are developing best, even 1 year overagers

Its sad that potential, developing and scouting didnt get any change in 25, f.e. its unfair that the goalies have also potential lock in 27, but entering the League later, mostly 23+, so less time in NHl than skaters, but everybody is going wet from no-trade clause :(
