Hey I just want to let you know that last one of these videos I found out that you were from Windsor I find that really cool I was born there and I don’t live far from their
BTW when the cap goes up, so does the cost of qualifying offers. So if the cap goes up to like 86 mil, you can pay an RFA like 1.45 mil and not have to give anything up
I wish they would not have any created players until 2 or 3 years out. I'd rather be drafting bottom tier real players than faceless franchise goalies from Serbia in the Sixth round.
They create way to many good players in the late rounds that are easy to find through scouting and the computers aren’t smart enough to take them I always end up with prospects I can’t sign or I don’t have enough room on my team to actually give them a roster spot
I also started a Wings rebuild and was expecting to lose and get top prospects , but my first 2 years we made the playoffs as wildcards and lost in the first round to the Stanley Cup winning Panthers in 6 and Buffalo in 7 had Dadonov on a 1 year contract had him on the first line with Larks and Mo Larkin had 123 points won Hart, Ted, and Art Ross! So my Wings franchise is going pretty well.
For season 3 I would say to try and move up in the draft for a top 10 or 15 pick. If you can manage to get a top 5 pick go ahead and do it. I would trade Hirose, Erne, or Filppula. Erne and Hirose because they didn't have a great season and they have value, and Filppula because he had a good season and maybe that could boost his value and teams would want him to play. You could maybe even put Giordano in the trade if you are not that attached to him. In free agency try to go after 1 big name defenseman that could go really well with Pietrangelo. Preferably a defensive defenseman. If you do get that big name D-man, try and get a 2nd or 3rd pair guy that could mesh well with Cholowski and/or Hronek. (By the way, love the vids. Keep it up!)
Do people actually play the game anymore or is sim mode and number crunching the only thing to do now? Thought you’d actually play some playoff games at least.
Signing players in their entry level contracts or for money under the max entry level price does not count towards your cap space so sign all the rookies for the top price you can even if they don’t want it to make sure they sign (like so he can see)
I did a franchise and it seems he goes back to CHL. I think this is a flaw in the game. Same with Larsson he becomes a UFA and you cant sign him in the first year.
I let Athasiou go unsigned an got the 1st. 2nd, and 3rd picks. I think players expect to get payed for the role that they play. Like if they are an 83, but are the 1st or 2nd line center, they will expect more money than another 83.
offer an extension to anyone at 85% of what they are asking for, and they will accept. its a good way to get cheap contracts. as long as they are interested in an extension, they will accept
You should switch Lucas Raymond from a TWF to a playmaker because that's what he is in real life based off of scouting reports and highlights I've seen
Guys hates the created players because their unrealistically good *Tries to trade for Lafrieniere, moves up 11 spots in the draft with crap picks* Hmmm?
You dont know alot about this game which is kinda sad. If your trading for draft pick someone wants to get rid of your value should be same not less not over. And you should do more long contracts. And you do alot other mistakes too. 2-way contracts doesnt cost even a pen in salery cap until the player is in nhl.
Man, this was so disappointing. I watched the entire first episode, everythings cool, rebuilding properly, not too many cheap trades..then bam Signs Pietrangelo, tries to sign the rest of the top six forwards in the league 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Why is is to hard to do something properly?
Man, you mispronounce names worse than Don Cherry haha Turgeon is TUR-SZHON he's the son of Pierre Turgeon aka the most productive retired player not yet inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Oh, I should also mention that this guy randomly turned into a HIGH Top 6 center for me and is has been my #1 center in my franchise mode for several seasons now. Not sure how this happened!
@@TacTixHD I kid you not. He's 84 overall. I think he started as a top 9 or bottom 6? Outta nowhere he just randomly became a top 6 high. He has 90 passing too. Insane haha.
Hope you guys enjoyed this episode! If you have any ideas for trades/signings next season let me know :)
Dude ur videos beat everyone else.
@@me-je9hv Really appreciate that!
Hey I just want to let you know that last one of these videos I found out that you were from Windsor I find that really cool I was born there and I don’t live far from their
@MAXMILIAN POLITTE Fabbri an 84 now, Perlini still an 80
I love it, cuz im from Czech Republic and you have a lot of our players in team :D
"He's a big boy, i like that" ;)
Tactix gets so rattled when he doesn’t get the best player available in the draft
BTW when the cap goes up, so does the cost of qualifying offers. So if the cap goes up to like 86 mil, you can pay an RFA like 1.45 mil and not have to give anything up
I figured that but wasn't sure! Thank you for the tip :)
TacTixHD So you dont always have to pay them 1.225
Isn’t a qualifying offer 110% of what the player made the year prior? That’s what it is irl
YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!
I wish they would not have any created players until 2 or 3 years out. I'd rather be drafting bottom tier real players than faceless franchise goalies from Serbia in the Sixth round.
I agree 10000% man. I've mentioned it to them countless times
I don't think ea has the rights to enough players to use all real players for the first few drafts.
UchihaItachi1986 your right there not aloud ncaa players
They create way to many good players in the late rounds that are easy to find through scouting and the computers aren’t smart enough to take them I always end up with prospects I can’t sign or I don’t have enough room on my team to actually give them a roster spot
I gave Mantha 8mil for 6 years+ betuzzi 6 years 6mil it has worked well so far they have been consistent solid top 6 forwards
Love the series, great work. The Pietrangelo contract made me cringe, but things are moving in the right direction.
Can u make travis konecny a high top 6, I feel he deserves it
I dont think you can change rantings and stuff when you are in a franchise only before in rosters
@@DerekM1212 I know you are unable to change them in franchise mode, but for future franchise modes that he does
@@jamessweeney5202 Konecny is not a high top 6 lmao, normal top 6 seems fine
He is carrying the flyers rn
Sebastian Patriksson konecky is clearly high top 6 - medium elite, absolutely tearin it up for Phily rn
If a RFA doesn’t want an extension you can qualify them and then give the 85% in free agency.
Hey man, how do I turn on the notification from contract? 20:00 min in . Every thing else works, but not with the players.. ? (Swedish game)
ABSOLUTLY LOVE THE SERIES
I'm surprised you didn't try to sign any of the RFA's during the season.
I usually wait til end to have better idea of cap space. Do you find better deals during season?
TacTixHD it’s cheaper to sign during the season
As a swede, you're incorrect about Raymond/Holtz. Raymond is more of a sniper while Holtz is more of a TWF. Holtz could arguably also be a playmaker.
Would it be a good strategy to trade your first round pick with another basement team before you overhaul the team and that pick loses value?
Who is here today when Raymond got drafted by the red wings?
And Bednar!
You can check if they are nhl ready or if it takes one year etc. So you can predict what overall they are
I also started a Wings rebuild and was expecting to lose and get top prospects , but my first 2 years we made the playoffs as wildcards and lost in the first round to the Stanley Cup winning Panthers in 6 and Buffalo in 7 had Dadonov on a 1 year contract had him on the first line with Larks and Mo Larkin had 123 points won Hart, Ted, and Art Ross! So my Wings franchise is going pretty well.
Also fake Jeff Blashill won coach of the year! LOL!
HELL YEAH ANOTHER EPISODE SO SOON, KEEP IT UP XD!

I had similar ideas to you! And thank you :)
Do people actually play the game anymore or is sim mode and number crunching the only thing to do now? Thought you’d actually play some playoff games at least.
Awesome!!!
Did I miss what happened to Veleno?
does tactix change there potential because everytime lafrienniere is always high elite
Let’s go
Could you do cuporbust with all of the teams?
Why didn’t you pick Tim stutzle
Signing players in their entry level contracts or for money under the max entry level price does not count towards your cap space so sign all the rookies for the top price you can even if they don’t want it to make sure they sign (like so he can see)
Do a simulation where you switch every team’s best player with another team’s best player?
Did anyone see that chara had 666 points when he retired?
LMAO oh know...
That's kinda weird
A generic player named Satan would make more sense
Early gang who else?
Day 999999999999999 of great content
The Oduya guy looks like hue jackson
Gusev is really good at face offs I switch him to center
Anahem had a pretty easy road to the cup winning all 4 series in 5.
Have you noticed Veleno disappears after the first year?
I did a franchise and it seems he goes back to CHL. I think this is a flaw in the game. Same with Larsson he becomes a UFA and you cant sign him in the first year.
So much for rebuilding lol 2020 free agency I acquired chara Hoffman and miller and went for another high pick in the draft
First Ea gives Larsson low fringe starter potential, then they drop him to a 69 overall.
Video idea- make World Cup teams for each team that there was in 2016 with current players now and put them into a tournament a sim for the winner
Love the long episode
Is Oliver suni one of the guys you created or is he actually in the game?
Actually in the game
Adelkader and Helm on tradingblock!!
Underpaying rookies can cause them to not grow very well. Just a heads up.
Under paying or playing?
In my NYI franchise Rossi grew to low franchise
Dangg, did you boost his potential?
Coming back to this video in 2024 and seeing that he skipped on matt rempe
Loading up on Chicago players
Haha for real
I’m playing the same thing as you but my team is the Boston Bruins
You know it doesn’t matter how much you pay your ahl guys. As long as their in the ahl the cap doesn’t take a hit
As long as its under 1mill
first ily
When you make the red rings a championship status thru free agentsy
I let Athasiou go unsigned an got the 1st. 2nd, and 3rd picks.
I think players expect to get payed for the role that they play. Like if they are an 83, but are the 1st or 2nd line center, they will expect more money than another 83.
You should upgrade Delemont
offer an extension to anyone at 85% of what they are asking for, and they will accept. its a good way to get cheap contracts. as long as they are interested in an extension, they will accept
They have grades that tell you their stats? You can literally learn what a players overall will be approx just threw what their grades are. It's easy
You should switch Lucas Raymond from a TWF to a playmaker because that's what he is in real life based off of scouting reports and highlights I've seen
Someone else told me he was a two way haha
They aren’t all created players
Trade for Sammy Blais. He always gets to at least an 87 and his trade value isn’t high
Mariano gets no love :((
Well, ea ratings suck in other league players and kaski had a amazing year in finnish liiga he should be attleast 72 and max 74
Oliwer Kaski❤️💙
Robin Lehner tends to sim like shit in the playoffs. He consistently gives up 3 goals in a period.
Don't do salary cap
i signed gustafson in my franchise mode, puts up 60 points a year.
Guys hates the created players because their unrealistically good
*Tries to trade for Lafrieniere, moves up 11 spots in the draft with crap picks*
Hmmm?
Sprechen Sie Deutsch, Art Ross? 🇩🇪
Talking that fast, why?
leafs lost to boston in 7 again... :(
Oh no I missed that...
Why is the Swedish created players so low rated ? Almost impossible to grow them in time
Lol you just pooped on me 6-1 on xbox and I left

And you do alot other mistakes too. 2-way contracts doesnt cost even a pen in salery cap until the player is in nhl.
Have to remember its on hard difficulty. And still rather save 100k on a 2 way for when they get called up than not

get more good
Man, you mispronounce names worse than Don Cherry haha
