I'm just like you on 25. NHL 26 is almost the same. I win 8 out of 10 games with everything maxed. Defense is much harder to play this year because poke checking and stick lifts are kind of broken. Like it's random if you hit puck/stick it or not. Presentation is better but everything else... stay on 25.
