Training and practice

I am new to NHL23 and have figured out how to pass and shoot but would like to know how to perform the more advanced skills. I found the "Training and practice" menu item under "More" and it says "Learn the basic and advanced skills of hockey" but there are only three options, "Free skate", "team practice", and "goalie practice". I have tried each of these but none of them actually teach anything. Am I missing something? Is there a different part of the game that teaches the skills?

    Hi there, @borkea 

    Unfortunately, we don't have tutorials available, but there are many on YouTube. There are videos that will explain all the dekes, strategies, the faceoff system, etc. Even if they're from NHL 22, they should still apply.

    You can go to YouTube and type in NHL 23 tutorial into the search to get a list of various tutorials 🙂

  • I've been looking for the exact same thing and thought it would've been under "Training and Practice" as well. I read the comments below, and I feel like having to Youtube it is rather inconvenient and lazy on their end. I rather have the in game step by step button tutorial like they used to have, (I'm pretty sure they did any ways) I personally don't think watching a video on YouTube is the same as doing an in game drill practice/tutorial, but I could be wrong and it's just me.

    That's understandable for sure. I hope we add tutorials, but I'm really not sure if we have plans for adding them or not. I have relayed all this feedback to the team so we'll just have to wait and see what happens. In the meantime, if you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to get them answered.

    It would be really beneficial if they did. There is so much this games motto runs on "figure it out yourself". Like for instance, the community playtest update where they changed close quarters gold and silver's range from 30 to 20. There is NO location to look up this perks intricate information, all we get is a vague increases accuracy and power when in close. This game needs to do a better job to inform the players. All we have to go on is feel for some of these perks and its an awful way to do it. Going back to the tutorial thing and in keeping it within the organizations other games, look at how FC 24 does their tutorials year after year and I am fairly sure they don't really change all that much. We need something like that to educate the newer players, especially this year where you are expecting many people both new and old to return or start playing this game.
