Nothing has changed.
I stopped playing competitive online games with NHL20 because 90% of all opponents and their players were way too fast. I then only played team battles, just like with NHL21 and NHL22. I stopped play...

Hello,
I've been playing this game for a long time, first on PC, then on Xbox, and currently on PS5. I always use fast players, and before NHL 26, I always equipped them with speed and acceleration. In NHL 26, you don't have acceleration or speed yet. What I wrote there starts right at the beginning of the game, and my players can't have any stamina problems yet. The other opponents, even if they're still poor in terms of overall rating, accelerate much better and are much faster in terms of speed. I invested a bit of money right away, and my team is actually doing well. I'll put in a picture. My team has an overall rating of 83, and my opponent yesterday only had an overall rating of 75, and he was still way too fast. No, that started in NHL 20, and at some point you just get fed up.
I understand more clearly now and appreciate the reply. I can’t imagine anyone but perhaps Federov out skating people in your top 2 lines unless your out of energy. You’ve got one heck of a team!!!
Yes, I've improved my team again, but I'll just play Cup Chase from now on.
Thanks for your answers.
Don’t bother with cup chase. I figured I would start on cup chase in rookie mode and work my way up kinda thing. Either in the championship game or the game 1 of the championship series I just figured I may as well hit the undefeated season and go to the next difficulty as the people who preordered are insanely better than me (pvp hurts haha) so I’m gonna mess with online play on release and the game just freezes at the end of periods during offline play. The crowd moves , timer for the period is over and it just freezes. Wasn’t a bother at first but after playing that many games, getting 2 or 5 periods away from the undefeated season and having the period end and your players just stand there is annoying. I’ve tried messing around with instant replay, pretty much any screen on the pause menu in hopes I can start the second period by having the game attempt to load something not work, having to reset and catch a loss wasted so much time. I mean, do you take a screenshot, send a video of a game where a period won’t end? Not even sure how to record the glitch. But wasting so much time only to lose because the game can’t load makes that mode unplayable as well. It’s just annoying and as I type this message I have zero intentions of paying to play online anymore. Just gonna go back to be a pro cause I’m stuck with my purchase and not renew the subscription.
