- There is still for some unknown reason no stamina loss for spinning in circles which means this perk is even better
- No perk even comes close to getting the same value this crap does
I guess putting another 20$ yeti or werewolf bundle on the shop was more important. Way to go EA. (Also fix your menus they're genuinely embarrassing for a 70$ game)
Can you show a video of someone not losing stamina for "spinning in circles"?

In-game example please.
also, doing circles on your edges isn’t the most taxing movement while skating. You’re essentially gliding while putting body weight on your edges and you’re not hustling or even moving your feet very much.
Thinking this should drain stamina at the same rate of skating makes me think you don’t play this game at all. A little worrying tbh but anyway
- Nasher3551 year agoSeasoned Veteran@KidShowtime1867 I know the graphics are pretty good but believe it or not that is a in game example.
Although it isn't as taxing as hustling it still needs to take stamina. Since it doesn't take stamina it reinforces the one man army meta since it's basically a get out of jail free card when you make a positioning mistake. You are insanely safe from any form of defence when you do this and there is no penalty or counterplay for it.
- hiperay1 year agoNew Ace@KidShowtime1867 He is right here. When you are using your edges turning sharply with or without EE, you do not lose any stamina, something that I have been actively against. I do think using sharp turns should hurt your stamina in the same way that hustling does at a much higher rate. It would help avoid the issue of people circling back and forth in the corner to avoid checks from the defenseman. Just my take on the matter.
- KlariskraysNHL1 year agoHero+@hiperay I mean you might as well say that when a defender is getting beat and has to crossover to skate to catch them they should lose stamina too. Turning isn't a taxing thing just like crossing over. And if turning sharply did use stamina it would just make Elite Edges that much better because if it you didn't have it then it would just be more taxing on a player. Player stamina isn't going to magically drain and line changes are not going to happen.

I am not saying just turning should eat up stamina, but I am talking more of the hard punch turning you see where players are hard stopping on a dime to reverse their momentum. Think of it like wear and tear on your legs in this case. A wide glide turn is like you said, something that doesn't use a lot of leg strength, just plant your foot in and you start turning. A stop turn or punch turn would be something that is gonna put more pressure on a players legs as they are stopping hard and having to handle the incoming forces from the rest of their body moving forward.
I know I am getting a little too technical here perhaps, but if you have seen online play, there is a lot of dancing with the puck along the side boards and because network connection can play a huge role, can make it difficult to defend given that they are not losing any stamina throughout these turns back and forth.
