Honestly I wish they would just buy the TNT rights, like they did with NBC several years ago... I liked the NBC touch it had to be honest... Doesn't have to be TNT, it could be the NHL Network... I mean as many commercials they show for the game, not sure they would have a problem with this and potentially could attract more viewership...

If you change the date of birth, you can change the draft years... It defaults to that birthdate used... I just added 25 NCAA CAP's and had no problem adding their draft years. I just change the birthdate first.

Change for the sake of change is senseless. You alter something for the sake of genuine improvement. Anything else and you're just playing an angle.

Agree 100%. Loved NHL 19 with it's NBC Sports intro and overlays.

Only played two games. 6min periods on Allstar. Honestly a night and day feel from 22 and 23. AI offense is spectacular IMO. They shoot from everywhere. They are aggressive and push to the net more. They will hit you a lot, so you can not just go end to end with one guy into their zone. They're simply just more physical all around which is awesome.

The pressure system circle is hardly noticeable to me. Found instead of using dump puck button, just hit pass way down the other end to clear zone and puck will go down towards goalie. Also, just holding square is some sort of special shot. That also clears the zone on PPs quickly. Unfortunately no, the cpu is not smart enough to do this therefore we get the short dumps that just only clear the first blue line.

Didn't seem overpowering when full pressure was activated. And it wasn't difficult to get puck out to disarm the system. Then next time up they have to fill it again.

I am hybrid user and trying to learn the new total control. Honestly just rather have hybrid. So much easier to just quickly hit square to slap a quick wrister at the goalie to try to get rebound shots etc. With using the RS I can't seem to just quickly do a wrist shot from any angle. Really don't like that.

However, I do LOVE holding R2 and seeing buttons above my teammates to pass to exactly who I want. Losing that with hybrid will suck admittedly.

Hopefully we can still have the hip check button and the other hits with buttons for defense with hybrid.

Goal celebrations are the worst, but Cheryl Pounder is incredible

I've never seen a cut scene in a sports game I liked.
