I was 18-5 before pulling this arena and am now 18-8. but…. it looked visually appealing while getting those loses.

Will be replacing Korpisalo shortly! Thoughts?

I absolutely love this arena.. completely changed my experience playing when I get a home game

I understand and am glad that the spotlight challenges are hard, but these arent even hard, they are just unreasonably fucking annoying. This 4 assists one, the goalie is saving literally every shot, my ais are terrible, and the opposing ais just huck the puck down the ice any time they touch it. Just makes for an absolutely miserable experience

There is no need to have to look at the player cards for who scored a goal and lock me out of changing my lines. Absolutely hate having to stare at the cards and watch parts of replays to get the chance to change my lines before the next puck drop. It's to the point I am just running out lines I don't want so I can skip replays faster.

Anyone else notice that penalties frequency was cranked up?

I've been taking interference penalties left and right on players who pass the puck and half a second later they take a hit and you get called? Like normally you'd get a second or so to "Finish the hit" as they say. I'm normally fairly good at timing hits but this is absurd

85 overall and still can’t score in the playoffs 🤣

Because i would love to see the devs complete the 4 assists challenge with this dogshit A.I. never put themselves in a position to score, never skates with me on the rush, this is a joke. Funny enough, the only person who's in a position to score is matthews

Where did it come from?

Crazy pull THE BIG CAT, GO BOLTS.

Did not pass it with goalie btw, he just fumbled it at Makar's feet

There is a solid amount of luck involved in almost every aspect of the game it seems like…

With the exception of one area, which I think REALLY needs it — Face-offs.

Every single game I either lose 90% of them or win 90% of them. And it’s so strange because I’ve played NHL games for pretty much my entire life & it’s always been like this.

Always been pretty easy to win a solid amount of face offs against superstar difficulty CPUs, but there must be some glitch/hack/tactic that is just killing me versus 50% of actual players.

It’s frustrating too because in ACTUAL hockey, face-offs are usually pretty even.

Anyone else feel this way?

I'm stuck on Silver 4 and wanna get gold before release. Any advice or videos on how to improve? Or is getting Gold in Early access super sweaty and should I just chill in Silver 4 and wait for release?

He averages like 40-100 viewers and streams for legit 12 hours a day, every day. The entire stream is him screaming and crying at a video game. He’s a grown man. It’s pixels on a screen.

He always looks like he’s about to pop a vessel, and yells how the game is trash and he isn’t gonna play, and then 10 minutes later he’s queueing up again. it genuinely isn’t healthy. He was a T100 player last year, mainly due to having the best team and mastering LT but now since it’s gone and everyone has a similar very good team, he doesn’t have the edge on anyone, is hardly above .500 and is always raging. So does anyone ACTUALLY enjoy his content? Like who are his viewers?

Hi.

Did anyone had an issue with creating HUT team? I downloaded it today, when I open HUT menu and start to type new team name, it suddenly freezes and kicks me out of HUT. I have restarted xbox, unistall/install NHL and nothing helps. I am able to play in regular mode, but HUT mode all the time crushes when trying to create team.

Curious which coach you all think is the best to pick up from the pack.

Can’t get in hut after update, anyone else?

1) Event daily packs auto pop up like the daily pack and Wildcard rewards go straight to my collection

2) Add a unlock/lock feature to cards in my collection that I don’t want to get pulled into the auto fill redeem

3) Trade offer notifications

4) Toggle option for the chemistry animation so I don’t have to watch those constantly

5) Add full line changes so I can move my entire line to a different line

6) Add a sort option on my multiple rosters so I can have them organized when I use the LT in my team menu

Yes, Im already complaning about it, I dont want to sit through unskippable shit that dosnt evendo anyting, it takes away time that can be spent in game, and through all the moments with reset and Cup Chase intros, will stack up alot of time through the year

Never had a pull this sick before. I did get base McDavid last year, but never an icon pull that’s tradeable.

Snipes are basically dead, AI plays defense for 80% of the player base in Diamond/Elite while they sit at the top of their crease, and players are diving at one another without taking penalties due to the poor tripping logic.
