I’m not too impressed with and of the 89s except for letang because his abilities are awesome. I currently have 86 gartner and koivu. The gartner card is cracked, fast and amazing shot. I don’t want to trade him in for an 89 yet so I’m gonna wait to build one more 86 before getting an 89.
Man...how did I forget about the customized synergies...that was a great justification for the cost of the TBs...hurts that they singularly use the Overalls as the basis for synergies:/
Damn didnt even remember how good they were last year, especially that Modano was lights out :) Backstrom is great option but they should have boost his FO up a bit I want my new hotness beat other centers in the circle.
They definitely reduced customization in this game which absolutely sucks, we want more customization. And I hate how they quietly removed truculence from the game, I guess it was too much fun. Maybe they can make a chores ability that would help us do our chores faster.
I built that 85 Chara card as soon as it was released. Now he's the lowest overall defenseman on my team, but he's so impactful with Truculence. I just can't give him up
Thanks! The wait for your video was excruciating but the content was exactly what i was looking for! None of these will be the top choice for their position on my team. EA's content team should feel shame! I'm considering making Muller to make PWHL objectives less boring. So i can earn PWHL BND's, that i only use for PWHL objectives 🙄
I hear you bro. But as a hawks fan I’m excited for my theme team I’m happy. I think how this years going it’s important to have as much fun as possible just do a theme team dude.
This kind of video is why your the best in the game. ***Lineup question though *** I have 85 Makar 86 Fox 87 Mountour Center I have Aho, 86 Bobby Clarke, 86 Taverez 85 Logan. I’ve already got supercharged McDavid and 87 Kuch at the wing, with that said Letang or Backstrom? I’m going to wait til tomorrow to see what the 89 FF card will be because that very well could effect my decision. Also I’m 2 icons away from Gretzky
I'm in a similar boat man. My centers are currently Barkov, Hischier sotm, Matthews CA, and Koivu. Can get the FF McDavid and 2 away from getting Gretzky, plus I'm close to Couture being 86 so essentially I'd be running McDavid, Barkov, Hischier, Couture. My left D is Seider, Makar CA, and Montour upgradeable. Might end up making letang so I can have him with Hedman, Seider with J-Bow, and Montour with Ekholm fantasy card.
@@marinersfan5110 Yeah I’d still wait, an eventual 88 montour and 85 makar is a competitive top 4 right hand D but 86 Bobby Clarke and 85 Tavares is at a pretty severe disadvantage at C compared to the elite options. I’d wait and see what comes out tomorrow
Yeah simply just size, like it matters less in NHL 25 but shes still going to get the stumble animation quite often and will have a brutal time trying to knock players off the puck.
LINEUP QUESTION Hey sleeves .. I’m in a pickle. I have one X factor captain (nylander) 6/8 for a second captain ( kuch ) I already have 5 more duplicates for a 3rd X factor. I made Gretzky 6/12 for a modern icon. And 2 86 team builders Enough to build frozen forces mcdavid. 500k coins and a ton of fodder to go any direction really. What should I do? Please help!
I made Letang because I have Sanheim, not Paryako and was running 85 Macinnis still with 87 Makar and 88 Seider. Backstroms shooting is weak and I have 89 McDavid, totw Robitaille and 87 Rantanen so no need for LW. Also have pin point shooter activated so Letang was no brainer for me
Love the content. I played real hockey and am a dominant righty so I find that, winning draws is easiest for me with righties. Right now my centers are 87 Eichel 87 aho(with quick draw on) 87 schiefle and 86 newuinyk. However I’m finding out the 89 mcdavid is too fast for Eichel to keep up. What number one center would u suggest? Excluding icons, X factors and team builders. Thanks again loving the content.
I had a much easier time building the 89 McDavid than I've had trying to build 83s for these team builders. And these team builders aren't the best cards in the game, which is what I would've expected with this release. Pretty disappointing.

I haven't made any team builders yet, I have 3 83 team builders and the 4th on the way from moments. I want to make Bäckström since he is a legend from my favourite team Brynäs IF in Sweden, how long will it take me to make him? 😅 I also have 600k coins rn!
Daily gift 🎁 was a 5 player pack.
1- S1 xfactor
2- 75s
2- 76s
think it was S1 x factor and 4 75+. I pulled 86 fox
I pulled 2*76 1*77, 82 XF Caufield, 86 PTN Leetch
I pulled 1x75, 2x76, 82 xFactor Ferraro, 86 Clarke
s1 X factor Ferraro and 4 76 overall
My daily had an 81 nobels but there was an msp pull in jake
Love these style videos. Nobody does them like you do, Sleeves. Keep it up for all us casuals!

as a lifelong modano fan growing up im so glad i chose to play HUT in 2024. #9 the goat TB goes on my Mt. Rushmore of all time HUT cards
Damn didnt even remember how good they were last year, especially that Modano was lights out :) Backstrom is great option but they should have boost his FO up a bit I want my new hotness beat other centers in the circle.

Hi sleeves. Love the content. Please keep it up.
doan has been on fire for me
Hey sleeves. i was wondering do you think the week one 85 frozen forces players could be used for week 2 88s ????
For sure
Yes
Thanks! The wait for your video was excruciating but the content was exactly what i was looking for!
None of these will be the top choice for their position on my team. EA's content team should feel shame!

***Lineup question though ***
I have 85 Makar 86 Fox 87 Mountour
Center I have Aho, 86 Bobby Clarke, 86 Taverez 85 Logan. I’ve already got supercharged McDavid and 87 Kuch at the wing, with that said Letang or Backstrom?
I’m going to wait til tomorrow to see what the 89 FF card will be because that very well could effect my decision.
Also I’m 2 icons away from Gretzky

Wait to see if there are any S tier Centerman you could make tomorrow but Backstrom as of now is your clear choice
@@bdove9704 I’m also 2 icons away from Gretzky, still feel that way?
@@marinersfan5110 Yeah I’d still wait, an eventual 88 montour and 85 makar is a competitive top 4 right hand D but 86 Bobby Clarke and 85 Tavares is at a pretty severe disadvantage at C compared to the elite options. I’d wait and see what comes out tomorrow
I'm a bit confused why you'd put Müller 5 when she's basically Backstrom, just trading a couple speed points for a way better shot. Is it just size?
Yeah simply just size, like it matters less in NHL 25 but shes still going to get the stumble animation quite often and will have a brutal time trying to knock players off the puck.
@ I really hope they can find a way to fix that in the future, but they'll probably just roll out another Chara with 99 speed instead 🤦♂️
I went the NHL draft approach and took Hossa as the best player. Letang is my second.
Daily Gift🎉
1 X factor base card
4 75+ players
These arent Team Builders, they are just 89 MSPs
Based on what?
This is the best way to describe them. 100% agree
LINEUP QUESTION
Hey sleeves .. I’m in a pickle.
I have one X factor captain (nylander)
6/8 for a second captain ( kuch )
I already have 5 more duplicates for a 3rd X factor.
I made Gretzky
6/12 for a modern icon.
And 2 86 team builders
Enough to build frozen forces mcdavid.
500k coins and a ton of fodder to go any direction really.
What should I do? Please help!
indid i did lose boyle when i wanted backstrom, so i need to make letang now
I made Letang because I have Sanheim, not Paryako and was running 85 Macinnis still with 87 Makar and 88 Seider.
Backstroms shooting is weak and I have 89 McDavid, totw Robitaille and 87 Rantanen so no need for LW.
Also have pin point shooter activated so Letang was no brainer for me

Tks Sleeves
Was looking at letang, but I'd have to ditch 87 makar. Not too sure I wanna do that lol
betting makar will be msp friday week two
@trentdubs9990 thinking matthews too, hasn't had any upgrade.
I hate myself for still playing this game
Sens fan here. Gotta make Hossa. Might make Letang and Frozen Seider since I'm weak at RH D.
betting makar will be msp friday week two.
Only reason I'm waiting until Friday to do both my TB and Frozen MSPs 😊
this background song sounds like 50
They should be franchise players with free ability’s . Backstrom Howe . Really
No New Jersey Devils option…. What the heck EA
Forgot how amazing that Regher was last year. Yeah TBS this year is cooked. If it weren’t for the 90k pack I wouldn’t have built any.
i went with your worst two
I had a much easier time building the 89 McDavid than I've had trying to build 83s for these team builders.
