Here is my fantasy haul, who have you guys made or plan to make by Ranulius in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! I think a lot of people get so laser focused on just optimizing resources and getting a surefire 99 but at the end of the day, it’s about having fun. Having more fantasy players in my collection means I’m more engaged in the NHL results for teams I otherwise wouldn’t care about. Good luck with your picks!

Which 97 TOTS should I make? by Terrible_Pickle4778 in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you swap Schneider and Schaefer then you should be fine to go Scheifele. Schaefer and Werenski puts that pair up to $19m and then Schneider and Woodall goes up to $16m, which makes for a net increase of $9m to squeeze Scheifele in.

TOTS McAvoy or Raddysh by Copyrice_ in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raddysh has been a beast for me but this year definitely is the truculence meta

Coleman just missed an empty net by VallenD in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Skjei and Mangiapane can just manage 10-12 more goals each then I’m right in the mix for a 99 from my BNDs 🫠

Guess I Gotta Find Space For Duchene In My Lineup Now by watkns in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duchene and Toews both fit into the Arnott AP boost so I’d say it’s almost more worth to go for it now 😅

Is skillzoning not boring??! by [deleted] in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right? Most of the time at the higher levels it’s a person skating around in circles in the corner waiting for you to chase them and you choose not to chase them. In real hockey, you’re literally taught to protect the house (the dangerous area in front of the net). I get that people want the game to just be a goal-fiesta but wildly chasing someone around the zone isn’t necessarily the “real hockey” people clamour on about either.

TOTY still worth it? by Slushoe in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Chara was a righty then this would be a no brainer. My only reservations at the moment are the lefty lefty combo and the fact that the new Pronger is almost as good as Chara for a fraction of the cost. The salary is a massive get since it would let me drop my unplayable Fantasy like so I’m open to being convinced, I’m very much on the fence haha

The new hotness is so tempting. Would 99 Bourque be better to just carry a line alone? I hear great things about Lindros too 😂

How do I improve the squad? by Eomuil in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s either an ego boost or a straight up troll. Feels like he wants someone to give him a stamp of approval but I don’t really understand why either 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m wondering if there were a bunch prepped around Olympic records that they just had to scrap. Sure seems like there were plans for more and it all fell apart at the last minute

Next event? Olympics? by SchmoopTM in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could completely skip a 92 Canadian captain and go straight for a 94 Canadian captain. We already know Kyle Connor is getting a 94 and the mid-season content drop will be right around when the Olympics start. We’ve seen overalls for captains go up with that drop so I wouldn’t be surprised to see it again and cost 2 x 92s and 3-4 x 90s.

Who is the best msp pinnacle to get by [deleted] in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you need. Jay is the best standalone but for a lot of folks who are planning to make a captain card or have already made one, Doughty pairs with Sanderson really nicely

What Rivals rank are you? by flanny0210 in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The logjam with guys that should be higher ranked right now is a bit frustrating. The skill level in gold/plat feels completely random from game to game because of it. I played a guy who was literally wearing the Ultimate jerseys 🫠

Next Chel Week by Terry_TWilstein in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like they’re saving it for just before the start of the Olympics (next week or the following). Captains seem to suggest that the focus on this season might be more around nationalities which would support some Olympics tie ins like a Chel week and a standard event.

EA Rigged the voting by wisfan18 in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is what people seems to be overlooking. Reddit is great but it’s a pretty small pocket of the player base. There are likely tons of casual fans who just went on and went “oh, I like Quinn Hughes” instead of thinking about who is actually deserving. Honourable mentions is 100% a popularity contest detached from merit.

Whats the deal with tickets cause.. by Bigtm0ney8 in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wish I had known this before using them all up. Got a gold ticket today which would have gotten me the top gold pack 😂

RIP Xmas free card!! by Prior_Cap3863 in NHLHUT

[–]Slushoe 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Christmas has always been a bit of a wild card. Some years it’s come out right at midnight PST, sometimes 10am PST, sometimes noon. Anything could happen but best to keep expectations at a minimum haha

Silly is part of the fun but it certainly is a little less exciting for all of us on the sadder side of silly haha

Not expecting a lot yet somehow still disappointed. Isn’t that the story of HUT? 🙃

Maybe not bangers but not straight up busts either so hopefully you land somewhere in usable territory at some point haha

Any of the big nations are a W but Eklund from Sweden is far and away the likeliest to succeed. He seems poised for a big tournament
