NHLGamers, We're down to 32 teams left in the FCL 6v6 Playoffs and winding down towards the toughest games of the season. With that, we'll also be broadcasting action starting tonight. Rusty Blades go at GOONS with puck drop at 20:00 CEST and Hokurit go at Tunnel Vision starting 21:30 CEST over at our Twitch-channel. Round 2 of the playoffs are to be played between today, 6th of September and Thursday, 9th of September in a best-of-five manner. (1) FILADELPHIA vs Shameful Knights (47) (2) hREDS vs Kouvola Screaming Eagles (44) (3) IQUE vs Tohtorit (41) (4) POGGERS vs Blacklist (40) (5) HAVU Gaming vs Perttilan Kommandot (36) (6) Dynastia vs Setelit On Ice (34) (7) JYP Jyvaskyla vs STARGAZING (33) (8) GOONS vs Rusty Blades (30) (9) Tunnel Vision vs Hokurit (28) (10) KOVA Esports vs Lemmenvelhot (27) (11) SAWO Esports vs Spirit (26) (12) Sulkavan Sudet vs Conquer Gaming (23) (13) BoxinElite vs FILADELPHIA Academy (22) (14) Kiekko-Espoo Esports vs Reign (20) (15) Sack Brothers vs VISU Gaming (19) (16) Otukset eSports vs RCTIC (17) Key points to follow throughout the second round: - Still, Dynastia. After a very strong group stage they had a small hiccup against Wilhelm Devils in the first round. In the end, they advanced with ease but will need too improve with their chance conversion when the games get tighter. Their series against Setelit on Ice should follow the same format and we can expect Dynastia to advance further. - POGGERS & SAWO, both of these established Elite squads had some issues to get going in the first round, can they bounce back and put forth stronger performances against increasingly tough opponents? - Tight matchups, especially some of the mid-table matchups are extremely even as some strong teams didn't perform up to expectations in the group stage. Kiekko-Espoo vs Reign and Sack Brothers vs VISU Gaming are ones to watch closely, those could go either way. Make sure to tune in already tonight at 19:45 CEST in order to follow the first games of the Round 2 playoffs! Arttu @OLVARI Hämäläinen and Julius Sorjonen will be in the booth over at www.twitch.tv/NHLgamer.22 points -

To our (and many others') surprise StickLifters faced relegation from Lite to Core after a decent run in Lite for a few seasons. We went through a rebuild earlier this year and our only goal for ECL 13 is to get our spot in Lite back. We have a very motivated team going forward and the upcoming NHL22 with its big gameplay changes seems to suit us extremely well. However, the puzzle is still missing its last piece. We are looking for a defender. Your role: As a member of this amazing squad you will play a crucial role in developing our game and turning tight games to huge Ws. There are two defenders in our current roster and you would have plenty of ice-time in both practice and league games as a third (2/3 cycle). You will also get a chance to have some off-ice responsibilities (Twitter, streaming, Discord stuff etc.) if you wish, as we like to share those duties. Our dream is to play the whole NHL22 season with the same roster, so the deal would be a long-term commitment from both sides. You don't need to have exceptional skills all over the ice - what we expect is willingness to learn from mistakes and providing feedback to others. #oppimisprosessi We do expect a thing or two... Finnish language skills (a must) Basic understanding of ice hockey as a sport Ability to play on 3-4 days per week Age 21+ and a sense of humour At least one full season in Core or above Mastering both handedness is a huge + ...but we offer a few as well! A private and very active Discord server for organizing everything (with a NSFW channel!) Ice-time guaranteed Tons of joy and laughter Highly motivated captains About us: We are a fun-loving group of guys from all over Finland, aged 22-40. We don't take things too seriously but we do our best to win every game. Our roster consists of 4 Fs, 2 Ds and 2 Gs. Usually we play Mon-Thu + Sun from 20:30 to 23:00 EET. Previously we have played in FCLs and ECL Lite. Next tournament we will participate in is the ECL 13 Core. At the moment we are spending the off-season working on set plays and chemistry. Feel free to check out our tweets on Twitter. Any questions? Or would you like to come and see what it's like to play with us? No strings attached. You can PM me here / PSN rapitzin / Discord @Rapitzin#0737 😊 The final decision will be made by 20th of September or as soon as we find the right candidate.

The NHL 22 closed technical test is over and unfortunately I have to confirm that the matchmaking problem is still there as we expected. For reference: my team played the technical test from Monday to Thursday every single evening, but e.g. on Tuesday we only got to play ONE game during 90 minutes. To be fair, we started playing late, around 22:30 CEST, but as we already acknowledged on Monday, the matchmaking problem is still a thing. We played the same team 3 out of 4 times. Doing my own research, I found out that out of the total of 14 German speaking teams, 9 of them were playing the PS5 version while 5 of them were playing the PS4 version. Seeing (on Discord) all of those other teams (mostly Finnish and Swedish) playing as well, it was the final confirmation that the matchmaking is still broken. Searching games on "relaxed" also didn't help at all as we got matched against North American team, which most likely searched on that setting as well. So we see this as proof that even though the matchmaking problem itself is crucial, the players/teams being split between consoles is just brutal, even moreso if the info is accurate that it's "only" because of some cosmetic things, f.e. the moving eyeballs of players, like....really? One more time again I want to kindly ask the EA NHL team to look at that problem and give us the option to search on the server we want to play our public games as well. I mean, it shouldn't be a big thing, because remember, in your "most competitive game mode" where you organize the GWC tournament, you have the possibility to adjust your settings to search for an opponent with up to a certain amount of a maximum ping. So you have the solution, you just don't want to add it to EASHL as well. You even have a tool to track quitting players and ban them for a certain amount of time, you just don't want to add it to EASHL as well. It's just so devastating, frustrating and most of all sad. Please fix it. Further thoughts on the closed technical test, based on the few games we got to play: + Passing: you finally have some realistic passing in the game. If you throw a cannon ball, the recipient has to have the hands of Patrick Kane and Connor McDavid to be able to pick it up and therefore he most likely won't. Bravo! Behind the back passes are slower which they should be, you can't force that much passes through sticks and bodies. Don't listen to the guys saying that this is trash because they now have to think about what they are doing. + Deflections: I saw some really nice animations and it seems like they are more likely to happen without being the go to move. Players still jump randomly instead of getting their stick into the shooting lane, which sometimes just sucks and is pretty much unrealistic, but I believe making EVERY tip possible would also be OP. + Build system: for me personally I do like the mix between full customizations and pre builds, it's up for debate if the small customizations really will make a difference, but I do like the fact that only certain builds can have certain zone abilities. - please consider adding versus again in the upcoming technical tests that we can also see how the AI is doing. I don't really have negative points to tell about the technical test, for sure some animations felt weird or the multiple chops got on my nerves after a goal, but for a beta it's normal to have some glitches and let's be real, sport simulations will always have some glitches and weird bugs.3 points

With the Play-in round finished and only the top 16 remaining ion the battle, it is time to really get going with the playoffs in the SCL 6v6 league! Round 1 will be starting today, Sunday 5th of September and can be played until Thursday, 9th of September. The playoffs are played in a best-of-seven format. We'll be covering the playoffs in broadcasts on our Twitch-channel, where the first matchups will be aired tonight and casted by Adam @esdor Ericson and Johan @Zalaz Nilsson. We wish all participating teams good luck moving forward! Here are your Round 1 matchups: (1) Granit Gaming vs Company of Geeks (16) #1 seed Granit Gaming chose to decline an invitation directly to the playoffs in favor of playing through the group stage along with all the other teams and it has paid off for them in a big way. They're now familiar with a lot of the teams and have gotten up to speed with the level of play in the SCL while retaining their #1 seed along the way. Their opponent Company of Geeks managed to push through the Play-In round in a battle against Blessed Suedis. Interestingly enough, these two clashed in the group stage already and those games were one-sided to say the least. Granit Gaming exited with full points and a goal differential of 18-2 in their favor. This will be a cakewalk for Granit unless Company of Geeks will be able to flip a switch and upset the entire league. (2) Farjestad BK vs Luleå Hockey (15) Farjestad BK have for a long time been that #2 Swedish team but are now mounting an effort to change that with determination. They managed to go undefeated through the group stage and quite notably, they have been the most disciplined team in the league so far, with only 20 PIMs in 14 games this far. It is unlike to really play a role for them yet, but that will be important in the bigger games later in the postseason. Luleå, on the other hand managed to squeeze their way into the playoffs through the Play-in round and are a team that can surprise strong squads in low-scoring battles but have a tendency to go on cold streaks from time to time. Farjestad BK should advance with ease. (3) Djurgarden Hockey vs Nordic Nosebleed (14) Djurgarden have made a steady ascent towards the top in the Swedish scene during the past few seasons of virtual hockey and now it looks like they are close to truly challenging for the throne for the first time. After a great group stage, they are facing Nordic Nosebleed, who have a history of suffocating stronger teams in the early playoff rounds before in various tournaments and won't give this one up easily, that's for sure. (4) HV71 vs Illumination (13) Much alike Djurgarden, HV71 have been on a similar trajectory towards the top and with some of the high-profile acquisitions made over the past six months, the team now looks stronger than ever, which is evident in their play. Despite ending up at the #4 seed, they are right there with the best of teams in the league and will be on the lookout for the biggest trophy. Illumination, who they will be facing are an ensemble of experienced gamers, but the team lacks that x-factor that could push them over the edge to being a true contender. (5) AiKnown vs HockeyProfessorn HC (12) With perhaps some of the most experienced players in the scene on their roster, AiKnown are pushing on with an exciting mix of experience and young talent. They've shown already in the group stage that they possess the skill to steal wins from strong teams and will be going into this series as a favorite. HockeyProfessorn are in for a big challenge and would need to tighten up their play a bit of they are looking to advance. Thjey struggled with scoring against stronger defensive units in the group stage and need to find a way past that. (6) Björklöven Esport vs Sjukstugan (11) Despite their #6 seed, Brörklöven are a team that could battle up there with the best of them. Statistically, they are a very strong defensive unit with stellar special teams that can seemingly score at will. However, the reinvented Sjukstugan won't be giving up easily and surely have the experience to handle themselves in tough spots, but haven't quite found their groove on the ice yet. Goaltender @poliskontroll is among the best ones in the league on a good day. (7) Södertälje SK vs IK Oskarshamn (10) It is looking like we could be in for a very tough series in this one, as both teams played through the group stage with rather moderate numbers. Södertalje SK are the lowest scoring team still left in the postseason, whereas IK Oskarshamn are following quite close behind in that department. Special teams could be a decisive factor if the series go the low-scoring route and in that department, SSK holds a minor edge. (8) Raging Monkeys vs Ice MachineZ (9) Raging Monkeys and Ice MachineZ are going head-to-head in this mid-tier battle although it is tough to imagine Ice MachineZ not advancing. They have a strong squad consisting of players that don't necessarily have that much experience together, but should find a way to tighten things up in the playoffs. That is not to say that Raging Monkeys wouldn't be a good team, but their quality will be put to a true test in this matchup. Tune in to www.Twitch.tv/NHLGamer tonight at 19:45 CEST for the first matchups of the SCL 6v6 Playoffs!2 points -

Missing the Settings tab in WOC (Camera etc) -Pass receptions: Adjust a tiny bit so that people are not forced to use the Magnetic XF/SA but using the Magnetic has a tiny advantage. Now that ability is way too OP or the pass reception ease needs a slight overall buff -Pass assist: don't touch anything -Pass interceptions: don't touch anything -DS4 doesn't occasionally vibrate on a successful bump, sticklift, poke or stick sweep. But when it does, the vibration is also too low. -In defense, holding L1 while skating full speed should result in a gliding shotblock on one knee (and player should be able to decelerate the glide with holding L stick against momentum) -Poke checks: A single tap of R1 should result in a poke check directly outwards of the controlled player's hips, not automatically towards the puck -Augmented reality: During breaks, don't show stats that are either 100% and/or 0% (empty stats) -Add an option to mute the Chel Lady -the height/weight impact on physical play needs to be higher. In the beta you can knock a puck loose from a Chara looking fella with a Nathan Gerbe lookalike way too often.1 point

So here is a review of the technical test from a very average and casual player of the game. I wish there were more comments in this article from different kinds of players because I like to read them very much. I was able to try out both versions (PS4 & PS5) of the technical test. I tested pretty much everything from Pro-AM to 6vs6 club games. I have to say that imo the difference between these two versions isn’t that massive. PS5 does everything a bit better and smoother but gameplay seems to be the same, even the bugs are pretty similar in both consoles. Some FPS drops seem to happen quite often with PS4 (4K Monitor). I don’t think it will be a problem to play next tournaments on the PS4 version. I already sent my (long)list of bugs that I faced during the week with both consoles to EA so I will comment on the game in general here. Frostbite game engine didn’t bring massive upgrades to visuals or mechanics in technical test. Everyone who played NHL21 can see and feel the similarity of the basic mechanics and animations compared to NHL21. I have to be honest, I was a bit disappointed with this, but I can live with it. Especially AI seems to be the same old, at least for now. WoC Interface is better/faster now and especially the main menu looks really good imo. Pros: Stick physics in general are my favourites. Although I think poke checking should be fully manual using R1+right stick. clicking R1 will always aim automatically towards the puck (same old). Cutting the passing lanes makes some sense now. Players are rewarded for positioning correctly between the passing lanes. Puck won’t anymore randomly go through three players. This is horrible in NHL21. Passing feels more manual now. Passing power makes sense. You can’t just fully load a pass and smash it to your buddy’s blade standing 0,5 meters away from you. Receiving player won’t most likely receive it even if he/she had the right perks for it. If you want to serve your teammate a onetimer, you have to adjust the passing power to the distance, like irl. Passing power and direction is really automatic in NHL21. Shot blocking is rewarding. The new L1 kneeling animation is way better than before and ‘’the carbet’’ animation (R1+L1) feels less edgy now. Puck bounces are a bit closer to the laws of physics which is good. Also goalkeepers can’t glue every 180km/h shot and the puck will be bouncing more in front of the net. Loadouts are really fun to edit and test out. Game tempo is slower so even the bulkier players can keep up. I saw our community’s top players favouring a certain sniper/playmaker/puck moving d build (185cm 88kg) already, but I hope the variety will be large and people aren’t forced to use the same builds anymore to be competitive. Goalie interference penalty is a good addition. However, not sure how well it works and if goalkeepers will be able to use this to ‘’fishing’’ penalties. Cons: There are already too many bondage-centers existing that are tying up every goddamn faceoff and it will be even worse if they let people take away faceoff ability points to boost their deeking. Please remove faceoffs from editable abilities or give some new tools to centers to work with. Puck pickups have some new animations and as said above pass power and direction affects if the player will catch it or not. Most of them are OK, but sometimes it felt that players were missing easy passes so this might need a little boost. Smaller/weaker builds can still ‘’pump’’ stronger/bigger builds out of balance and steal the puck which needs some tuning. However I don’t like pumping in general so it should be changed in some way. Pumping was actually even worse in the PS4 version. People were taking penalties but no-one knows why because there are no replays? Nothing new for the goalie-players? Five hole looked really vulnerable in loose pucks and crashing the net with the puck. AI goalie had serious problems coverin the near posts. I hope the server selection will become available in public games as well so the northern and southern part of the European community will become more connected. Especially now when the game is split in different consoles. Where the heck is the spectator mode? I bet the commentary voice in the WoC menu gets pretty annoying after a couple of days so I hope there will be an option to mute it. Sometimes it’s really hard to see where the puck is when it's crowded, but not sure if this is actually made on purpose. I think especially defenders will like this version of the game. I really enjoyed the technical test and it feels bad to return for FCL games in NHL21. In general the NHL22 technical test felt less arcade than NHL21 and I’m pretty sure I could enjoy it way more than NHL21. Rating solid 7/10. Let's see what the future holds. Sorry for the long post.1 point
