Is it? It's christmas and most people haven't made it past prestige 1, trying to search for games during "peak hours" still leaves you searching for ages. This year is giving me NHL 15 flashbacks. Not to mention that i dont remember a team going into the playoffs being as heavy favorites as Aapon was this year. 

Every people have own opinion who is favourites and who is not. Aapon Taikasauva don't go easy way in the Elite Finals.

They lose 2 games straight first playoff round against Rusty Blades because Rusty Blades whole team defense was outstanding

and Supreex play his "normal level". After 2 games Aapo adjust their game like good team need to do if things don't work in the

field and it help they for the 2nd playoff round. Series against NOS it is very tight battle and it is very entertaining to watch.

I think NOS go in the Finals because series is already 3-1 to NOS but tightest place you need to play your best game and that

Aapo did. Now it is very nice to see how SJK and "Seppo Hovi" react when things don't go how should be after 2 games.

Nothing is over yet but next game is the most important game in the series and both teams know that. Very interesting to see

what happens.

[ECL 5 - Elite Finals]

Finally this year NHL-version have real challenge to every team and nobody can't win for example

Elite Division "easy" like early years. Earlier I remember the tough games start in the Finals and 

there is only 2-3 teams who play very active and this same teams of course battle the championship only.

Now finally situation is different and differences between the best teams are very little or there is no real difference

 and good or bad luck can make the difference who win and who lose.  Now this is competitive gaming and here is big

challenge to everyone. 

[SJK eSports vs. Written in the Stars - LA Decision]

LA show now right way at they control the things in this tournament. This is a good notice/sign in the future ECL tournaments

too at LA can make difficult but right decisions. 

[SJK eSports vs. Written in the Stars - LA Decision]

Good decision. There is rules what need to follow. If LA don't follow the rules why someone is writing the rules then?

[Send us your feedback/questions to the NHL developers!]

Hello!

If I don't remember wrong Rammer&Boys speak earlier about that at when team get a penalty and game 

still continue because team what don't get a penalty have the puck control and goalie go in the bench.

So my question is what year they keep their promise and goalie can play this situation in the field player/6th player?

 

Other thing what I speak already after Summer Cup Finals is that at maybe need to think how you can match better

for example powerplay/penalty kill other team player types. What I mean is that at when for example my team get a

penalty. I want at opponent can choose that situation that kind of player types in the field(if they want) at they have

best possible chance to score the goal/goals in powerplay. And opposite my team can choose in the field players

what are best in defense own goal. In my mind you need to match the player types different situations in the field

better than now. Now you have¨only 1 line in the field. In my mind we need 4 lines  forward+3-4 lines in defense.

Still you play this game 6 players against 6 players. So what I want is that at you can choose for example if I play

rd then I have 1st line-offensive defenseman, 2nd line-2-way defenseman, 3rd line-puck moving defenseman and 

4th line-defensive defenseman. And team can choose in the dressing room what player type they use 1-4 lines plus

powerplay and penalty killing and all other special situations. Maybe need to ask game developers about that or

just start to speak about that if that is possible to bring in the game year 2075 maybe.

 

Things what need to improve or even ask are they think about change/improve this things in the future:

 

-players who use syncro-error and ip-boot 

-L1-spam to steal the puck

-for now when goalie drop out of the 6vs6 game game stop there and team that goalie drop out get lose. 

 Why team get a lose only that situation when goalie drop out? Same way need to happen when field player

 drop out of the game.

-good practice room where players can train powerplay/faceoff tactics/penalty kill etc all things what are important in the 6vs6 games

-puck pick-ups

-better balanced player types(it is not ok if some playertype is too overwhelming)

-stick checking need to be very strong and other hand you get every time penalty if you try to stick check through the body/legs

 So what I mean at stick checking need skill not spam like crazy and still survive without a penalty.

 

 

NHL start Europe again so maybe in the future EA together with NHLGAMER can maybe bring some little tournaments same

places where the NHL season start officially. Maybe in the future videogamers can play World Championships

in NHL-game same time and same places where Stanley Cup Finals are played every year or maybe there

where World Championships of hockey are played... Or something like that. Need money and need sponsors to do

that but contacting right people everything is possible.

 

Maybe this our game is already so much better if game developers take old NHL professional players part of the

game developers team what work together day after day and year after year with EA game developers. Players who

play hockey the highest level whole their life have the right vision of the game and they focus the right things

what need to improve. In my mind mascots, crowd, arenas etc are not the first things what need to improve

if inside hockey rink all the things don't work correct!
