EASHL Centers.... best build?

[stevostl]

I was using the 2 way dangler at Center in the Beta and enjoyed it..

I'm just curious what build do you centers like to play with ?

A patch late last year changed the ratings to where all EASHL players have the same faceoff rating, even wingers.

That change has carried over to NHL 17, so the build that you pick doesn't affect your success at faceoffs.

In the beta I liked the Jumbo playmaker, but it really depends on your playstyle and team makeup. In 16 I played mostly as a Grinder at Center because I felt he was better suited for center than a two way forward. I could pass virtually the same but could play better defense.

that's good to know and I kind of thought that. thanks for the feedback

so basically like the next guy said pick a build that offsets others and that suits your play style

Pretty sure in the past strength and size played into faceoffs.

Is this still the case? So even with faceoff attribute being the same some builds have a better chance at winning the toss ups?

Is there a list of all builds and explanations/attributes anywhere? I haven't gotten into EASHL yet, but can't wait. I havent played since NHL 12, so I'm spending all my time in BaP to practice before I hop in and make everyone mad at how bad I suck, lol. I think I'm almost ready to "go live", but wanted to take a better look at the builds so I would have an idea before I do.

Which is unfortunate IMO.

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but it's the best "guide" I've found so far.
