Club Population non-existent
It’s not even 3 weeks since release of the game and you already can’t find clubs to play in 6v6 EASHL… Spend two hours in the locker room searching for a club game, to inevitability get annoyed enoug...

Yeah right now its really rough...and chew on this:
This year the player base is split over 4 consoles. During playoff time, there is now 4 divisions per console. That's a player base split 16 ways. In what world did they imagine this was a good idea? It worked last year because it was still just PS4/XB1 editions and that's it. This year it's just...next to impossible to find games in playoff time
Just sitting here for 25 minutes so far and endlessly searching for a game with my 5 teammates. Its Friday night and I cant find a game. But nope, population is great!
Edit: Dont worry , after about 40 minutes we had one club member make a new team and invite us where we matched up with all elite kids in whatever the loser playoff tier is. What a great system this is.
Yup same! Friday night at 9pm on the west coast... dead!
Even tried Versus, managed to get 1 game, then after that... dead!
For fun I booted up my PS3 and fired up NHL 15.
Was in a full 6v6 game in less than 5 minutes... with less than 50 players online!

Talk about comments that didn't age well.
Let me guess, after Xmas it will be better because players will have new shiny next gen consoles?
Or once club finals is over it'll be better?
Or is there a brand new built-in excuse to distract from the obvious.. having matchmaker only, as good and as sophisticated as you think you can make it, is not good enough in a game like this where you don't have a huge population like Fortnite, CSGO, etc.
