Without giving too much away, NHL 17 has high expectations for a very young player, as well as the two teams involved in an earth-shaking trade this past offseason. Not only do they give us a Stanley Cup champion, but each individual award winner as well.
Nhl 17 news series#
It’s the first game in the series to not release on the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 since the current-generation systems were introduced.Īs they do every year, EA Sports and NHL 17 have simmed the entire 2016-17 NHL season. In our review, we called it “a solid step in the right direction that makes the series’ recent missteps feel like history” and praised the sheer amount of content packed onto the disc. NHL 17 is now available for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, and is among the better offerings that EA Canada has put out in recent years. Over the last 12 years, the Madden franchise has picked the Super Bowl winner correctly 75 percent of the time, and though NHL 16 picked the terrible, no good, very bad Washington Capitals to win it all last year, it did correctly pick the San Jose Sharks to make it to the Stanley Cup Finals. The 2015 first-overall draft pick is predicted to win the Hart Memorial and Art Ross trophies (awarded to the league’s most valuable player and leading point-scorer, respectively) as well as the Ted Lindsay Award, which is presented to NHL’s outstanding player as selected by the members of the NHL Players Association.ĮA Sports has had a pretty good history with its real-world predictions thus far. Individual player awards favor the Edmonton Oilers’ 19-year-old captain and budding superstar Connor McDavid. Their hopes of a Cup will be destroyed by Nashville in six games, with Filip Forsberg scoring an astounding 26 points over the course of the postseason. The Montreal Canadiens - predicted to finish second in the Eastern Conference and well above last year’s champions, the Pittsburgh Penguins - will meet the Predators in the finals. There are a ton of tips in this video, but I wanted to cover some of the more unorthodox points in text form as well.Īfter a stellar 2015 regular season that saw the team win 47 games, NHL 17 has predicted that the Nashville Predators will hoist the famous Stanley Cup next spring.ĭuring the regular season, the game’s simulation predicts that the Predators will rack up 110 points, winning the Western Conference over the Dallas Stars and last year’s Stanley Cup finalists, the San Jose Sharks. If you get stuck down in your butterfly you’ll get torched by good players. It is way easier to move around while standing up. (so for me: Left middle finger on L2 (butterfly), left index finger on L1 (precision toggle), right index finger on R2 (post hug))Īs soon as the puck is thrown to the half boards or the point, stand up and come off the post. I like the non-precision butterfly movement a lot better, but it can be tough to control. Note: I also hold the precision modifier when I drop in to butterfly to get rid of precision movement. However, if he skates it out front or passes to the slot for the one timer, you’re off the post already and you can get into the position you need to be in quicker. If the puck carrier is going to shoot short side, you can easily snap on to the post to save it. It’s easier for you to get on the post than it is to come off of it in this game. This way you can creep up right next to your post without hugging it.
You can maneuver around in your crease while holding both triggers (or buttons depending on control scheme) by not fully holding the left stick to either side. When the puck comes low behind the net i’ll drop to butterfly and hold the hug post trigger – that doesn’t mean I’ll immediately hug the post. This is probably something I only do, which is why I wanted to share it with you.
Holding butterfly & post hug triggers at the same time, all the time. It was very difficult to release a video like this because there was a lot of things not working as they should.
