Well, Calgary is grabbing whatever they can get from Vancouver. Would they like Eriksson?

Kravtsov is not top 6 in rangers next year
Contracts are messed up too a 82ovr puljujÀrvi asked between 7.5-10.5mil :))))
Playing nhl 2020 as the avs for franchise. After a good season traded kadri and a 1st for ovi
Isnât that the fourth Canuck that Calgary has signed or traded?
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Vancouver cant have anything good ever last.
"It is what it is"
NHL 21 EA put all the work into micro transactions and not into the whole game. Good to see EA now being sued by Canadian Government for breaking gambling laws. stop defending EA they are scum
You can find the Lundell goals from youtube. Good for florida, they might have gotten a serious gem.
Thanks for the NHL 21 news as well… didnt buy it (yet) and it looks like im not gonna anytime soon since franchise mode is basically the only thing i play… they should just give rostet updates for 10 bucks at the start of the season and bring out a new game with actual new mechanics like every 3 years.. that would be cool
In NHL 21 the trade value is definitely pretty broken, I've seen 79 overall depth forwards on a one year, under a mil contract have half a bar of trade value. I cant tell if the trade value is reflecting their stats or maybe its a prediction of how theyll grow? Idk. But ea should really release more information about how their game works. Also the line chemistry for defenseman just shows how they would fit on the forward lines in the edit line screen, so you have to go to roster moves and click on the player in order to see exactly what type of defenseman they are. Not to mention auto scouting doesnt work so drafting is literally just a guessing game unless you manually scout every player. Its just pretty annoying that they add one aspect to the game (trade deadline) and it seemingly messes up a bunch of already working parts of the game. And even with the trade deadline it automatically does best lines right after lol. This game…… its in the game, I suppose. But I believe those are all the franchise mode glitches
Yep…watch out world here comes the Calgary Flames. Super interested to see how the entire roster shapes up before the season starts.
My Franchise mode experience has been interesting for sure. At on point Josh Bailey of the Islanders, who starts as 85 less than medium trade value, his overall dropped to 79, but his trade value was as high as Austin Matthews (and yes I turn fog of War off) Also I tried trading Austin Matthews and 2 very high value first round picks for Draisaitl and Edmonton wouldn't except. So yeah trade value really is all over the place
Whether itâs players choosing to leave via free agency, GMs via trade, etc, the amount of team shuffling seems to be growing every year. At this rate, will team ârivalriesâ die out?, or have to be manufactured by the hockey media. Shannon has a great point about rooting for the player over the team.
Iâd like to see more player loyalty to their respective teams. And GMs to their players.
I just trade Kevin Shattenkirk (60 pts season) for Lafraniere and 2nd round pick. Values are soooo way off
Hockey guy your amazing you watch hockey all day and know video games including rockstar ???? I have NHL 20 didnât buy 21 because I thought it would be flawed do to covid … that being said Iâve been playing the game since 1993. They finally just now started announcing my name for create a player . My last name is McCarthy like cmon … sandy McCarthy was an NHL player . Well it looks like be a pro is the selection for me in 21 if I buy it . Iâve always played franchise . Go Canucks all day Iâm so sad whatâs going on weâve lost so many players itâs not even funny. Take care
K sofar i know the issue of trade value has more to do with the stat totals across the league are a bit inflated. All u have to do is change every players totals to fit better in the range of the game and let their potential bar balance the game out after a season or 2 because it generates talent year to year in the draft based on how strong the league is overall. So basically a mcdavid is a 89 and a tavares is now a 85 and so on. Basically a bit like hut scores. i think in game scoring and performance might also be changing values this year but thats the new problem where you can staple Gallagher to McDavid's line, he's a perfect fit and he's a full bar in like 30 games. btw tanking in real life broke the game. It wasn't programmed to deal with teams trying to compete with subpar rosters.
In the next update video you do, if you throw prospects in, include cbj pick Chinakhov. He has been heating up in the KHL and hit a career high 3 assists last night.
EA sucks
Calgary is gonna ssuuuuuuccckkkkk
I'm not too bothered by Vancouver resigning Levio. He was a good little player, but that was unfortunately a huge major injury. Probably weren't sure about him, so Calgary is taking a wee bit of a chance here. It's a good deal. He'll get playing time there, we needed him, but he wasn't a huge part of the time. My roommate's disappointed though, he loved Levio.
Can they take Loui too? Full contract? Pretty please?
As for EA and NHL….lol. They have been rushing out games and patching them early for years (as Shannon basically said). We're playing for DLC's and roster updates. I maybe finally done after this year. I have said this every year since Legacy, but this year…this year might've broken me.
Can we please call guys like Leivo a middle 6 or bottom 6 foreward not a top 9. If there even is such a thing as a top 9.
EA wouldn't care about your idea unless they reset hut seasons so they get everyone to continually spend money on the packs. Until they stop getting the people gambling away their money they don't have to change anything about their game, especially when people buy it full price. They even admitted for fifa nothing changed
Well, at least only a "k" went away from "ask" – fortunately it wasn't replaced by another "s" đ
I'm still playing NHL 94 AND 95
I take 3 years to buy a new nhl game
My be a pro has a broken team in the first year. Pittsburgh. Their top line Hall, Crosby, Ovechkin. Second line Malkin, Nugent-Hoskin, Liane. Not sure about anyone else, but that top six looks like an All Star team roster.
They announced a update coming in early November for Franchise mode and scouting.
Vancouver offered him the same money . He Picked The Flames.
calgary is my new team to loathe
