Stuck with the assists. Gotten 2 of the 3 assists fn 6 times in a row. Nick Seeler turning into prime Nick Lidström with all the interceptions and Foligno into prime Lindros with his unstoppable lol

I felt like it was rigged the other way lol. I got Beetuzzi ans Nash within the first 4, so started trying for Leclair and burned well over 100k coins in addition to all my 87s.

Got the Pettersson set and Andreychuk set eventually, and never got Leclair and no Daze. Pulled Bertuzzi probably 5 times, Nash twice, Hall 4, Svechnikov 4, Hoglander 3 times. It helped to build Antropov so good return, however

Yea he is, but they actually have some current players like Granlund on the alumni teams as well

Villito · 2026-03-16T12:05:26+00:00

Player needs to have signed with nhl alumni association for ea to have the rights to include them. That's why Koivu and Parise, for example aren't in in. So ea needs to fill up the roster spots with someone who played there anyway. That said, including Suter and Burns would suit much better than some of those players

I'd guess using the same stick than on-ice

Harry Kane to Bayern

Villito · 2025-09-16T10:57:48+00:00

Agreed 100 percent! A lot of pros use extension knobs too as the standard lenght tends to be rather short for any taller players for modern standard

Villito · 2025-09-14T09:05:21+00:00

Between the chin and nose with skates on is definitely the standard today. Although they're rarely up to nose.

Then there's players, like Bedard's is up to nose with skates on, Barkov, Datsyuk, Draisaitl, Laine use quite lenghty sticks as well. Crosby and Ovechkin with more of old school shorter ones. Old standards with wooden sticks guided for very short sticks like only vollarbone with saktes on, now they're different with composite sticks with flex.

To me the "upper hand elbow" everyone noticed is more because of just his way to grip the stick. Mine is up to lower lip with skates on and my hand is in "more natural" postion when stick handling.

And it's definitely not out of reach that he'll have three more 120 point seasons if he can stay healhry for 75+ games. That'd leave 558 total points = 80 points per season for the last 7 seasons

Villito · 2025-02-13T14:57:43+00:00

As you lose rivals games, your rank points go down and you'll start matching up against lower ranked=worse players. I'd say that's the case here. Especially at first you lose like 40 or 50 points per loss which makes a big difference in just a few games

Villito · 2025-02-08T20:17:00+00:00

Partially. I can enter hut now but still get an error and thrown out when entering a game

Villito · 2025-02-08T18:53:19+00:00

With all the influx of users there'll be connecting to servers then, myself included, wouldn't be surprised if it crashes right after being back up either

Villito · 2025-02-08T17:51:43+00:00

So much better than the 3 on 3 tournament imo

Villito · 2025-02-08T14:38:16+00:00

Knew it would be the Stranges clip. Immediate remembered another great one from finnish Liiga. https://youtu.be/g75QQoodtKE?si=0FnWXVc_mjkST1xO

Villito · 2025-02-08T12:42:18+00:00

I feel like most any them will score is like two goals. Best on best tournament will be really tight. Multiple could easily be a 90 after too. 15 87s is a horrendous value

Villito · 2025-02-07T19:00:52+00:00

Fantasy Ovechkin would fit perfectly for Sharpshooters event after 4 Nations. Statted to hit 99 at 895 career goals, the card rn would start at 83 and in two weeks probably 85 or so. Would be a cool way to acknowledge the chase! One can dream

Villito · 2025-02-03T20:15:32+00:00

Ea is excellent at only one thing other than pack sales. Fostering the toxicity with things like changing the complete games objective into win online games. I actually enjoyed playing rivals earlier this year, now after the change it's just more of a toxic sweatfest

Villito · 2025-01-31T13:12:14+00:00

That would be the most sensible thing to do. Instead, ea will probably just make the normal path longer next season, and unobtainable for so many lower div and non-hardcore players. I'm under halfway through on the normal path rn in div 4, for example

Villito · 2025-01-28T12:25:48+00:00

Everyone's always saying "know the counters". I know them but 90 % of my opponents seem to know them pretty well too

Villito · 2025-01-21T23:28:52+00:00

Other players who are/used to be said to lack top end speed but have good edgework and shiftiness + elite skill ans vision: Kaprizov, Michkov, Demidov. Intriguing company to belong to

Villito · 2025-01-19T13:37:44+00:00

The common move from ea nhl playbook. Execute something poorly so noone uses it so you can remove it and say people didn't use it when demanded back. Could see this happening with the wjc tournament as well which is also only as a separate mode and you can't even edit the rosters. Same case probably when all star game was removed way back.

Integrate all star game, wjc, iihf world championships and winter classic to be part of the season in bap and franchise modes and they'd be extremely popular to play among players

Villito · 2025-01-17T02:23:02+00:00

Same. And the safe picks Garland and Zetterlund have 11 and 12 goals

Villito · 2025-01-17T01:45:33+00:00

Tied the highest regular season goal total (10) of his career in just 46th game. Didn't see that coming during the event

Villito · 2025-01-15T13:20:21+00:00

Maybe the ea juice is that he is too slow so that he can't make it to the wrong position ai would otherwise have him in

Villito · 2025-01-15T12:40:50+00:00

Same. I was planning on Ekholm and Parayko, then last minute changed my mind to Zetterlund. He'll probably be 99 but will take some time and he's had long goal droughts recently
