Anyone at EA watching this gold medal game?

Question

NHL26 is not even close to resembling best on best hockey.

You notice how this is the highest level of hockey, and players have to PASS the puck at a quick rate to be successful? Notice how when someone holds onto the puck for more than 3 seconds it doesn’t work out (or doesn’t even happen)?

Now imagine if the video game you produced matches any resemblance of this game. Nope. You literally promote puck ragging and think hockey should be about who can hold it longest with one player.

Their game is so backwards and you don’t know how to make NHL. EA_Aljo i know you’re probably sleeping on the west coast but would love your insights. How come people in NHL26 can rag for MINUTES. But in an actual game of best on best (which HUT is) I got people ragging for 20 minutes???? CAUSE NHL 26 IS NOT HOCKEY.

Its not the game that rags the puck. Its the player whose doing the ragging.

Well maybe if EA made defense and bumping more realistic? And stick checks more realistic? You think of that?&nbsp;

Just replying to your concern regarding ragging the puck. And yes, there are venues of the game that definitely can be improved.

EA literally promotes with the beeping stuff they put out. So I don’t blame people for wanting to win with the meta is your player licking the glass below the goal line.

so your reply doesn’t do much! I’m talking about fixing mechanics so that you can’t pick rag.
