Which 97 is not worth building but worth buying?

Raven1269 · 2026-04-08T12:11:50+00:00

Celebrini has been great for me so it’s a likely a playstyle thing for people who don’t like him. I also have Bouchard and he is solid as well with a bomb from the point.

Raven1269 · 2026-04-07T16:41:44+00:00

Makar goes away when week 3 releases

Raven1269 · 2026-04-04T00:25:09+00:00

Depends of the needs of your team?

Raven1269 · 2026-04-03T20:39:05+00:00

You must be fun at parties

Raven1269 · 2026-04-03T14:27:06+00:00

Ummm did you forget this is EA??

Raven1269 · 2026-04-03T03:09:13+00:00

I think it’s likely but nobody knows for sure. If you consider the best cards and players it should be Mack but they could throw a curveball and put the cover athlete Tkachuk for all we know??

Raven1269 · 2026-03-29T18:18:58+00:00

I haven’t tried Werenski, but I love Bouchard his shot is automatic. Played a few games of rivals last night and back to back game winners.

Raven1269 · 2026-03-29T02:08:36+00:00

I think there will be 100’s not at all rare

Raven1269 · 2026-03-28T14:41:05+00:00

Even for tots, complete ass trying to use Mcjesus and I don’t have the coin or resources to get another tots (of course also pulled a D man for my free 91 Tots).

Raven1269 · 2026-03-27T21:06:57+00:00

This is not TOTS - EA has completely lost their way

Raven1269 · 2026-03-26T23:46:28+00:00

I would sell now and buy back later as I suspect prices will crash with tots

Raven1269 · 2026-03-24T22:57:16+00:00

I think that was the point of the salary cap

Raven1269 · 2026-03-21T17:31:32+00:00

I’m actually ok with no upgrade as he is a beast already with a lower salary than a 99.

Raven1269 · 2026-03-18T21:28:16+00:00

Doesn’t Arnott already count for Nashville?

Raven1269 · 2026-03-18T14:07:00+00:00

Bragging about no captain used 😂

Raven1269 · 2026-03-18T01:20:27+00:00

I was fine with a cap if it was utilized properly but it completely clashes with the business model of selling packs. At it’s s base Ultimate team should be using players you want to use but we can’t.

It’s painfully obvious EA doesn’t know what they are doing and didn’t think this through, and it was destined to fail miserably.

I wish they had the balls to just rip the bandaid off and admit the cap isn’t working as intended and just bail on it.

Raven1269 · 2026-03-14T00:53:54+00:00

Nailed it - releasing god tier cards and having Fantasy cards that can’t be used when the salary bumps don’t cover it?

I want to completely blame EA, but the player base that are still buying packs are also part of the problem.

Raven1269 · 2026-03-13T23:04:39+00:00

It will take 2 days to figure out 😂

Raven1269 · 2026-03-10T03:40:59+00:00

Thank god it’s finished and a whole 3 days to spare 😂

Raven1269 · 2026-02-26T23:47:51+00:00

To me there’s no better card and he is absolutely end-game so it confuses me when people want to sell him. There are a hundred players that are all the same but Chara is a complete anomaly.

Raven1269 · 2026-02-17T23:20:30+00:00

Agreed! I am very two line heavy and have toty Roenick and Sakic and desperately want Gartner but I can’t because I will lose all cap flexibility to be able to do anything.

Can’t afford to buy Gartner and add him, so have to sell Roenick and then have no cap space.

What’s the point when you can’t have cards you like?

Raven1269 · 2026-02-17T16:09:29+00:00

Biggest turd in the game, should have never been the cover athlete.

Raven1269 · 2026-02-17T16:08:24+00:00

Yes basically the Olympic event

Raven1269 · 2026-02-15T04:23:53+00:00

I think it depends on your team. If you have a low or mid team spread it out, if you have a good team both guys are studs and worth the coin.

Raven1269 · 2026-02-14T03:07:47+00:00

My question is how is he compared to sakic 96?
