@@timdougherty5260 hmmm. That’s weird. I’ve never had an AI take a single penalty yet. Offensive or defensive zone. But, offensive zone would be frustrating
Whatever you get paid, it's well deserved. Unlike a lot of streamers that literally play games for a living, you are putting in serious time and giving fantastic insight to people that are struggling or good players that need a tune up. Thank you for all you do. You may not be the best player in the world, but I'd argue that you are the best teacher there is, clear, concise, and you do not miss the details that good players forget. You are a great player and I'm not sure how you empathize with crappy players, not unlike myself. It's good to see real talent, putting in long hours of real work, become successful. Thank you for the service you provide! What really impressed me is how you are interviewing the developers of the game, you were getting into the details. Really working instead of trying to find glitch goals to post. which there’s nothing wrong with that but it’s separates the people that want to make a little bit of money and the professionals who do this for for a living.
Total control was a learning curve for me but honestly the charged up hitting is amazing. It took me a few days to get the timing / angles down but man… it’s getting fun. I’m pretty terrible online (0-0-4 in my play-in games) so I’m not as amped to play online but I’m trying to improve
Sleeves I hope you see this cause I gotta say, I’ve been watching you for a few years and every year you get better. This video was extremely comprehensive, detailed, and had great explanations. It had a lot to talk about but each thing was brief yet captured the most important points. This was great and I can’t wait for the next more specific videos
Thanks so much for this. I’ve always just played as a filthy casual who just enjoys scoring with no real thought. So this is super helpful looking forward to the rest. I would love to see strategies you use vs ai or are they the same.
I would love to see more advanced videos on implementing strategies please! Videos breaking down how Overload/Crash the Net/Behind the net differ and how to play each and how to best defend against each and what to look for
Man, this video has aged very well. Ive been really struggling with pretty much all the things you mention these strategies will help avoid, and hallelujah. So far so good. Creeping into Div 2 means ive had to try ouf behind the net more, but i couldnt quite get it going and would revert to my ho tos, which becones predictable. Furst couple games with new strays, and ive had much more success. Banger video my man as always and much much appreciated!
I just want an option to favour shooting a loose puck in the o zone, rather than hit stick a close player with a loose puck nearby. Why isn't this in the settings yet
It would be awesome if you could do a strategies video for Squad battles. I’m having more trouble scoring this year with how the AI collapses around the net and body checks super aggressively. I win for the most part, but getting +5 goals and 20 shots isn’t a sure thing for me. Dumping the puck seems to help. But sometimes there’s the same feeling as 23 where the computer is going to get the puck no matter what you do. I can’t quite protect the puck like I used to.
Fantastic video. Just what I needed. I've been playing since NHL 20...am comfortably in D2, but have been frustrated lately, and this video is awesome at fixing foundational errors. Would love to see a video on how and when to hit, as well as how to use Overload. What I will say, is taking my centreman down the middle and letting the AI do the brunt of the work, I'm going for hits less, but when I do they land. Keep up the great work dude. Love vids like these
I don’t like leaving pass assistance to 100 because sometimes the pass locks down to a player I didn’t want to pass to, this often happens if two players are lined very close to each others.
I’m a new player to NHL. Should I use total control or hybrid? I played NHL back in the day and I remember shooting with square. But everyone seems to use total control. Which one do most people use?
You have better control once you move the right stick to the left or right, this kinda puts you in glide mode allowing better control with the left stick for aiming. You’ll want to be passing the puck very often, as you want to force the goalie to move around a lot, eventually they’ll get worn out and that will make the chances of scoring much higher.
I actually really like the 2-3 forecheck - but you have to manually control the strong-side D to deny the easy breakout up the boards, and leave the F1 and F2 to the AI to create chaos. It's probably not as effective against better opponents who know to reverse the puck behind the net, but against your average/below average opponents, they aren't going to know what to do under pressure with their strong side winger unavailable on the breakout. They're only ever looking/moving forward, and passing behind them/their own net is rarely something they consider.
I’ve always done the quick breakout the opposite way. If someone is over aggressive I use leaving zone early for odd man rushes and close support for the trap tends to get the opponent(not always) to get more aggressive and opens space. I haven’t bought 24 yet because of total control but maybe I need to give it a shot.
So my last complaint was in 23 could adjust strategies in FM. Well noticed when I’ve adjust them in the line up screen. It actually changed the strategies in 24
Great video man. I really think this is gonna help me get into div 2. My strats were all jacked and I never thought to put wingers on opposite sides. 🎉
I'm new to NHL. I'm getting allot more goals after just 5 days. Day 1 I couldn't score for Sh**. I don't mind total control but know no difference. Good tips. I'm lost with allot of it. I got NHl24 to up my knowledge of the sport in general.
Strategies have always been my weakest point in these team sports simulator games. Like, I can only control one player at a time; how do I get my teammates to back me up?
Two things I’m having problems with in the game. First in squad battles I get slashing or tripping penalties on players I’m not even controlling. Second you have said shoot far corner. I shoot but is there a way to aim exactly at high or low with the new controls?
Thanks again. Great video. Can you help with the HUT collectible moments. There’s a few on Superstar and AllStar that I don’t know how average players are supposed to beat
I tried all these settings and found a huge boost in gameplay in SB. When I went to play rush and played another person, the gameplay and style goes all over the place crazy, and there is no method to the madness. Any recommendations on how to prep for the run all over the place style these quick 4 minute games last?
I think the energy affects their acceleration. I tried your 5 spot but lost 2 in a row so I put it on 7 and won. I can see the hustle kick in faster. Have you tried it on 7?
Completely off topic. But anyone have a tutorial or ideas on how to frame jerseys like he has to his right? I am trying to frame some NFL jerseys in 16x16 shadow boxes and they never come out looking as clean as his are.

its a complex rock paper scisor, if you dont wanna learn all the conters, traps, reads, etc, I recommend you do 2 tie ups then 1 straight backhand, its simple and always works
I wish this channel would bring up the major problems in Chel, especially 6v6 matchmaking which is terrible and never works. We need more attention drawn to this by popular channels like this. It will help a lot in getting it fixed. Please help 🙏🏻
Question: So just need clarification, what's the differences between different Offense lines? Like you have Line 1, but then they have different offense lines. Is that just different plays they set up for or how exactly does that work? Sry I'm slightly new to really getting into NHL games so tryin to understand as much as possible, thanks for the tips!!!
Man I gotta say that I played nearly every sports game but NHL is by far the most frustrating to play, like I legit can't score or defend on this game, the controls are also so counter-intuitive that I have to focus super hard to even click the right buttons
I think it drives me the most insane, is when you have someone who’s just joining and doing their five games for placement, has no one but silvers and bronzes and is lighting everybody up. Goes to show you that ice tilt is still in the game.
Anyone know how to make it harder to gain the offensive zone vs the cpu. What sliders would work? Where I would have to dump and chase once in a while?
Annnnnnnnnd thats why..... actually go make plays with your d or shot for a rebound.....your the player who scores the same goal 90x a period doing the smae play🖕🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I like total control but I can’t be the only one that hates changing lines on the fly. It’s practically impossible. You have to let go of the trigger so completely stop skating for a second or two in order to get your thumb on the dpad to change lines.
My biggest weakness is that I do not play hockey IRL nor do I have any real concept of the offensive strategies. I don't know who should have the puck and who should literally be the point. I just play the game and hope for the best or a shoot out after the ot. I don't give up goals and play smart patient D. I just can't get going when my players are being checked and stiffled by the D.
Also on defense it’s good to have lefties on right and righties on left side but on offense I disagree. I feel like it’s way easier to score cross crease when there is a right handed shooter on the right side and vise versa. I feel like I’d advise the opposite of what he says for a lot of these settings.
@@baywop7098 I’d say get a decent lineup first. Don’t get the top players but a team that can compete. Do your X factor set with non nhlers. Finish X factor challenges and icon challenges that will help you build decent squad. Then start working team builders with nhler players you pull and icons with non nhlers
@@NyRangersfan1357 I have a good team with a million coins. All my moments and xfactor sets done. That would take a while to solely rely on rewards to build team builder 84s.
I constantly lose the pocket online. It doesn’t even look like they poke check but if they get close enough, my players give up the puck all the time . Also, very slow even my fastest players get caught from behind
@@m-agirouard3329i get that he's fast, but the ground he makes up chasing people is off the charts stupid. the fluctuating sliders during franchise mode is maddening.
Sleeves i just want to add, manual players absolutely do have puck interception animations. I do it often with defenders with high degensive awareness attributes, sometime its not a full pick up, but a reach to tip it wide of the player its going to
Pass assist on 100% is just bad once you are a skilled player. Passes do not go to intended target when players are close together. I have mine on 80/100 and it feels much better. Still get a bad pass here and there but ultimately I’m way more precise with where I’m putting the puck.
Again the sliders are EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!!! Put it all the way on energy and watch all 4 lines be red half way through a period. Put it on efficiency and they stay green and skate like slugs!!! That one I leave dead in the middle. Dump and carry- carry your AI will wait to cross line, dump they will sprint across with you occasionally going offsides. Cycle shoot- cycle your AI will glide and be prepared to catch a pass, shoot they will plant in an area and be prepared to shoot a one timer. Block no block- block your AI will get in the goalies way and block shots, no block your AI will let the goalie see the shot and move. The sliders matter big time. I personally have messed around a bit and I’ve landed on 5-5-5-3. I leave them all in middle and block shots on 3 so most of the time it’s me manually blocking a shot if I need to. Cycle shoot and dump carry are important too. All the way carry and behind the net is not as effective I leave it at 5. And cycle shoot at 5 makes the AI less predictable and creates more scoring possibilities instead of just going for the same cheese over and over which a skilled player will defend.
I'm new to playing NHL, and I'm getting my ass kicked. I've always played Fifa, so I have understanding of opening formations, and goalkeeper but I'm still getting beat by the keeper. Then after get destroyed on the counter-attack....Do you coach people? I want to get better at this game...
I’m here because you taught me how to play MLB the show 23 better & now I need help with NHL.. I’m a madden player but I’m so done with that game & its patches.. Show me the waaaaayyy
not related to hut, but you were talking about AI so it got me thinking. Our AI in EASHL had 6 penalties in a 6v6 game. They are guaranteed for 2 or 3 a game
he will but sometimes he wont, so instead of trusting in the animation the best thing to do is to have an active stick, put your poke out and keep it on the opponents stick, if the puck carrier reads that you have the pass covered and attacks the net, pull your poke towards him and as soon as you land your poke on the poke you hit the opponents body. That is how I defend 2on1s. Cheers bud
cpu taking penalties is probably my biggest issue rn. Like who decided to make that happen at ea?
Why? Do you just want to stand in front of your net and let the AI get the puck back for you while you skillzone? Exact problem with the game!
@@SuitS06it happens in the offensive zone as well
@@timdougherty5260 hmmm. That’s weird. I’ve never had an AI take a single penalty yet. Offensive or defensive zone. But, offensive zone would be frustrating
@@SuitS06 like on my opponents breakout there has been interference penalties
I think it might be fixed, hasn’t happened in a few games

Standing around or just in the way
standing around or just letting the opponent ai skate right through them not poking or anything.

he will but sometimes he wont, so instead of trusting in the animation the best thing to do is to have an active stick, put your poke out and keep it on the opponents stick, if the puck carrier reads that you have the pass covered and attacks the net, pull your poke towards him and as soon as you land your poke on the poke you hit the opponents body. That is how I defend 2on1s. Cheers bud
Thank you!
