EA NHL 26 CHEL WOC IS A JOKE

I'm a franchise player who now tried CHEL because franchise mode is completely forgotten... nothing worth it cuz no one BUYS anything there. Well tried CHEL and got run over by overpowered "enforcer...

but these pictures show how well the poke check works.

I'm not sure how effective a poke check should be when you're not even facing the puck carrier:

At least not jump over the opponent, You keep making it sound like we don't understand anything about hockey. I don't want it to be like it used to be when people went around spamming poke checks….. you guys talking avout us like we suck at this game when all of you playing with friends……... ”defend it” yeah sure i do even when i’m forward i have been a better defenseman than the clowns playing defens many times… you can’t enjoy drop in when sticklift and poke checks are weaker than the offensive skills, so many times i have played defense alone cuz the other guy is a level one enforcer or more offensive than EK65…. last year i could handle it okey and i could trust the goalie more, but this year i can be there and brake passe but if they shot at goal the goalie gonna let it in, left-right and a backhand between the goalie and the post 🤷‍♂️ if i go for him the other dude have open goal…. well you super stars maybe you can teach us NOOBS how to do it?!?!?

This is an OP move. I agree. However, the time and space required to pull it off means there was a defensive lapse.

  KidShowtime1867 defensive lapse????
  Tell me what you would have done?
  Like i said you gonna play defense alone in drop in so 2-3 vs 1 so what can i do more than stay between the pass cuz the goalie NEVER gonna save the pass move and ALL OF YOU KNOW THAT! But this year the goalie can’t even hold the post so you are kind of screwed and then players blame the lack of defense.
  Like i said last year i was an okey defense player (keep in mind DROP IN) but this year it’s so hard when you can’t trust your defend partner and now i can’t even trust the goalie at all it is like me and a open goal
