What have you done with this game? (3s Eliminator specifically)

I genuinely cannot understand how MASSIVELY you've fumbled the bag here....

NHL23 3s Eliminator is such a unique gem in all of the NHL gaming experiences specifically BECAUSE it is not held to the restrictions of the other modes.... No penalties besides over the glass or tripping basically.... Crazy dekes, crazy goals, massive hits, etc

You have missed the mark so so so SO spectacularly on NHL24 it is almost criminal to see. I just hopped into my first online game of 3s Eliminator on '24 (after months of avoiding it, hoping the updates have improved things since launch) and it is STILL!!!!!!!!!!!!! slow, sluggish, not responsive, doesn't have huge hits, doesn't have crazy plays, doesn't have have have have..... HOW DO YOU TAKE SO MUCH AWAY FROM SUCH A GREAT MODE!?!?!

Don't get me wrong, I've tried to play Be A Pro/HUT on '24 as well and it's just such a SLOW game overall. I didn't get into this game looking for a "Real-Sim" hockey experience. Or if you do want to encourage that fine but please keep it to specific "Sim" type modes like Franchise or something. 

Honestly the game pace is like 33% of what '23 felt like what and why did you do that to my boy there EA?!?!?!?!?!?!

Bring. Back. NHL23 3s Eliminator PLEASE (just with like... more people cause I can't find a game on last years game 😔)
