LT abuse is still there
Granted, my defending in these clips is atrocious. I'll concede that. However, just look at the ease in which the offensive player maintains control of the puck while literally going through defender...

@SnizzBarDizz2oh Because they aren't about separating the playerbase. You accept what they give you. And what you consider arcade is their competitive. What some of you want isn't going to ever happen. You'd think after how many years you would pick up on that.
LT isn't really a problem. Pokechecks aren't a problem of being bad either. Stick Lifting is a penalty button this year unless in 100% perfect position. And hitting is toned down because people hated the Truculence people with high checking so they raised everyones balance to the 80's just making them bounce off most hits.

@KlariskraysNHL If you can actually say LT isn’t really a problem with a straight face then that just boggles my mind.
- @dustyrytstyk You are right I can say that because it's been in the game for so long that I have come to terms they want it existing. When something doesn't change year after year it shows they are content with it. I gave up long ago asking for certain changes. The goal is obvious they want human highlight reels to showcase.
And NHL is far from a perfect game in my books. It's still just a solid 6 of 10 to me. I'm 95% a 6s player with 5% dabbling in HUT. I don't give feedback in HUT because that supposed to be super crazy. As for EASHL I'm not happy with how they "balance" builds. They decided to raise categories for everyone instead of raising their should be strengths and lowering their should be weaknesses. You can literally play as a dangler and intercept passes as great as everyone else.. I gave my feedback on that stuff already and if they care to use my info so be it. I no longer live for NHL and that is why I just accept stuff over the years.
@TITAN_NHL Yeah timing your pokes is essential now and they need to bump up that dislodge puck power. I don't care if someone is using something to hold onto pucks better it should only work on slight bumps and not pokes.Sigh. What an embarrassment. Can we all just stop and think about what this game might be like if the dev team wasn’t so completely scared and captured by the twitch disney-on-ice kids. This just isn’t even close to serious.
As if maintaining puck possession and the LT ice-dancing wasn’t absurd enough in ‘22, they elected to turn that garbage into a dumpster fire??? The part that is mind numbing is that this is largely just tuners. They actually tune the game this way on purpose, as if there weren’t clear and obvious reasons that the play of real hockey games resembles nothing like this. Not only that, but they've doubled down on the twitcher fallacy that this reflects some kind of hockey “skill” and “elite” play.
Well, congrats to the 3 of you who wanted even more utter nonsense in your competitive online gameplay … this is the dev team for you!
Stop the nonsense. 2024.
Many of Twitch streamers also dislike the LT movement. I'm part of that community and we have complained about the direction of the game. Sadly only 3 people get listened to and that is the main CM's friends who are LT abusers also. My club friends played them the other night and all they did was LT the whole game. My friend got video of the gameplay. Just sick of not being listened to as a consumer.
