He needs to slow down honestly because he’s gonna get burnt out too quick. I wish he just uploaded every 3 days or so, maybe even just once a week. That way he is more likely to do it for a full year and it keeps his viewers engaged still when he’d be consistently making content. I don’t complain about daily uploads, it just frightens me when I know everyone is going to start expecting this level of consistency, and then he gets burnt out and leaves again.
Nabokov already grew 12 overalls from last episode to this one not even halfway through the AHL season.. definitely something to keep an eye on moving forward.
24:27 Johnny: The “statistical growth” panel is somewhat delayed. Crouse is still growing from his production last season. As for the young guns: pre season game time does increase their growth but this is more due to the extra amount of games played and not because of them playing with “the big club.”
Hey John for the draft a great way to tell if a late draft pick could be a steal is looking at there strengths and weaknesses… if you see their strengths are work ethic/maturity/character/etc. those players usually end up being elite or top 6/top 4 in the late rounds
@@Plehpleg work ethic and maturity combination is pretty much 100% successful… work ethic is the most important I would say the others just normally follow with it but if they just have character or smt like that and not work ethic it’s not a great way to tell if they are a steal
For signing Swayman, if you are thinking of the big 8 year 9+ mill contract, I’d wait till after the playoffs. You don’t want to sign him to big money and he fails in the playoffs.
Love you John you genuinely help my depression no joke hahaha idk what it is about ur videos but man I love them makes my day 2021 Habs run was prime Johnny streams
johnny, i rarely comment on videos but this little streak u got going on has got me going wild. keep it up man, love the vids. ever since that calgary series in chel 13
Notes: 1. I think you have Doan as the center on the second power play and unless he has surprisingly good face off stats, that might be one reason the Utah PP isn’t good. 2. Rostelovic is -12 while playing a little over half the team’s games. He might be a major problem. 3. Consider getting a player from the Islanders for prospects to get a higher first from them.
John, go into settings and you can set the pro and or amateur (scouting draft eligible players) to either automatic or manual. Automatic is the default that is why your scouts are automatically starting their next assignment. Also when I scout I go in this order: player type, strengths and weaknesses, skills assessment, potential and comparison. However you have to make sure the same scout is scouting the same players not a different scout in the same region. If you do all these correctly you will get a full 4 bar potential 100% of the time! Also if you have time before the draft do character assessment before the potential and comparison but it’s not necessary to get a full 4 bars. If you do it after you won’t get a 100% accurate character assessment
Sign Swayman to 3-4 years. It's cheaper and would be easier to trade out if he is not working out for you in the future. If he is solid you can lock him up to another similiar 3-5 year deal where he gets paid.
I dont know if its in the NHL, but in the NBA there is a stat called shot tendency, essentially you can dictate who should shoot the ball, as if you are a coach telling the player to shoot, you can change it from 55 to 99 so the player shoots more in simulation, you could do something similiar
Johnny I don’t know if you fixed it when editing the lines, but NHL 24 has a weird glitch on the 4 man power play where the winger is the one taking face/offs, edit the face-off positions and change it so your end of year face-off stats are more accurate!
Not sure you’ll see this Cus I’m behind in the series but if the scouts auto scout, you can set them to find new prospects it’ll clear they current assignment then tell them to scout specific players saves a lil time from clearing their current assignments
14:10 Carolina had their big guns in the AHL so they might have locked someone into the AHL by signing Necas. In the future with RFAs either start negotiating in august or after the preseason is done Gonchar!!
Hey Johnny ,, 1st it’s good to have you back,, the play in Carolina is to go after Jarvis that’s around 5 millions and he’s a great asset you could get from them cause they need $ to sign Nevas,, that’s where you should be pushing
swayman's overall is definitely gonna drop if he keeps those numbers up, meaning you'll probably get him for cheaper if you wait to extend him in the offseason
The statistical growth you saw after pre-season was from the prior season. Statistical Growth/Decline is growth that occurs from having good season stats, but it is temporary. It will last for the next season only. After season "2" he loses that particular growth/decline. Whether he gets statistical growth/decline for season "3" or goes back to his natural ratings is determined soley on his performance in season "2". So essentially think of statistical growth as a 1yr ratings boost/decline. It's often smart to trade players with good statistical growth at the deadline if they aren't having another great season. Their trade value will be sometimes significantly boosted, despite the fact that come end of the season you know they'll go down in OVR. But thats a bit cheesy. Just a good idea to keep statistical growth in mind when trading away or for a player.
Hey Johnny. Great Stream. Maybe give the UA-cam Chat a chance for Scouting too! Swayman can be a great goaltender for you now and in the future. He’s young and you can play him either when you’re retooling or you’re trying to make the playoffs. Also, Gonchar would be able to grow still if you don’t play him either. What I recommend is to try that to see if he jumps.
If you wait until the end of the season Swayman will probably want a longer term deal for cheaper with his production. Since hes an RFA id take advantage of it now and push his signing to the offseason. At worst you sign him for one year and get more time to evaluate an extension. Also don't discount the values of top 6 players in the draft. Now that X-factors can develop, top 6 guys can regularly hit 87-90 overall with superstar abilities. Guys like Masse, Howe, and Misa have all become 30+ goal scorers and PPG player with good linemates and coaching for me. The first year players dont have the potential but they sim super well, so maybe target some in the future if theyre in bad situations.
Johnny try to extend Swayman. Don’t look at the stats bc as u build up your defense he will play better and as long as the contract is moveable it won’t hurt u in the long run. Maybe make a move for a better top 6 penalty killing Defenseman.
His 2.88 cap hit came from how much it cost to qualify his rights and they used the additional 1.9 million to sign him for 4.7 million. Don’t know if that’s how it works in the NHL but this is EA logic after all
You should look for a trade with Seattle. They are usually sellers which means you can grab a guy like Adam Larson as well as Jordan Eberle. Two veteran guys who can help train your young team, or you could hunt down Tolvanen who you may need a storyline to make make sense, but he’s exactly what you need to go with Keller where he’s a guy who really likes to shoot the puck and he’s plenty young enough to be a long term player.
I think this is a good year since your doing good to maybe look for a 85+ guy at the deadline someone with some term 2 years or more. Could really boost your team especially since it seems to sim well in the real time. Very positive that your team sims good. I’d get another sniper or power forward to help your scoring
Try to sign swayman for 2 years 3.8 - 4.5 mil. range. this gives you salary cap room to sign other players in free agency and is an easy contract to flip in the future if it doesn't work out
Also for goaltending long term you can look at getting D'aigle in the draft. otherwise, later in the draft you can sort and find goalies with elite potential easily around rounds 4-5
Swayman's not simming well. I would just be looking at moving forward with Vejmelka and your younger core of goalies for the next season. Definitely start Vejmelka in the playoffs. Not a doubt in my mind.
I don’t think signing Swayman at 8 years for that price is worth it. He has a sub .900 save percentage and that’s not worth 9-10 million dollars. 4 years at 6-7 mil is more reasonable, but I’d still wait until the end of the season, as his overall is likely to go down if his bad season continues
If you're going to make a move for a shooter, do it now. Gotta improve scoring because it just seems like the Sim is favoring that. No goalie is looking great. Maybe look at the kraken because they were way at the bottom and have tons of snipers. Also, I wouldn't pay a goalie. Swayman might be good during the couple real-time Sims, but locking him with that contract would be bad if, for some reason, his numbers start looking bad in real-time Sims. You've never had good luck with goalies. Why would it start now?
John you keep mispronouncing Vejmelka's name! It's pronounced "Veymelka", as the Czech "j" is pronounced that way. Loving the series so far though, let's go Yeti
Move Roslovic and put Bjugstad back on the third. They were playing better with the that setup, then 4 game losing streak when you put Roslo back on 3. Trade him for a pick before he tanks after a shitty season. Run Cacone on 4.
Laughing at everyone expecting this to last.. dude does the same thing everytime. Comes out strong for a couple weeks then disappears for a couple months.. comes back strong for a couple weeks then disappears for a couple months.. we all fall back into the trap..

@@JC42844 thank you for that
Rozlovic a -12 in 16 games, he’s gotta be benched or used as trade bait
To get a sniper/shooter type of player
needs to go down or trade. team had success with bjugstad on the 3rd.

He already said he’s wearing 19 next season in Utah

swayman's overall is definitely gonna drop if he keeps those numbers up, meaning you'll probably get him for cheaper if you wait to extend him in the offseason
The reason Krouse and Guenther have stat growth is from the previous season.
The statistical growth you saw after pre-season was from the prior season. Statistical Growth/Decline is growth that occurs from having good season stats, but it is temporary. It will last for the next season only. After season "2" he loses that particular growth/decline. Whether he gets statistical growth/decline for season "3" or goes back to his natural ratings is determined soley on his performance in season "2".

john you have auto scout on thats why it keeps auto selecting them to random drafting
You can easily offer players 200k - 500k less than they are asking for when resigning!
Swayman grew from a high starter to a high elite in potential one of the highest in the league I’d lock him up for around 9-9.5 mil
They always had the space.... the game had him at a 2.88M cap hit for some reason while he was RFA ... +1.5M in cap they had left available
His 2.88 cap hit came from how much it cost to qualify his rights and they used the additional 1.9 million to sign him for 4.7 million. Don’t know if that’s how it works in the NHL but this is EA logic after all

I haven’t seen a sim where sway turns out good. Usually drops to an 87 by end of year 2
It for sure increases growth in players, not goalies though. I always play my young rooks in the NHL.
I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE
Not sure if anyone has said this, or if you’ll see this Johnny, but as a Coyotes fan, Janis Jerome Moser just went by JJ.
He was a tendered RFA, wasn't he? It probably already took out the cap space.
The contact he had was 2.8 and they used 1.9 cap space to give him the 4.7
Keep it coming Johnny
Johnny you should draft D'Aigle who could be your goalie of the future. Best goalie prospect since Askarov
Askarov is new Shesterkin and D'aigle is new Price.
Did he extend Gunther?

Its because it was showing the growth from the off season not preseason
Keep Swayman for just 4 years, use the saved cap space to upgrade the Power-play.
Necas is more than likely leaving Carolina this off season to get paid that 6-8 mill range for several years
The fall off about to hit
Hoping Swayman can grow too more than just a high starter and more like medium elite
He grew to high elite
they played a game on christmas day lol
uSTINKov is quite a name.. 😂
With two 1sts in the next draft, I’d have done the max offer sheet you could afford
I think with necas they had the cap space bc in preseason half the roster gets sent to the minors
He also goes by just j.j. Moser too
Almost 10 years and they still haven’t made menus and UI good in GM mode. Was perfect In nhl 14
I don’t think signing Swayman at 8 years for that price is worth it. He has a sub .900 save percentage and that’s not worth 9-10 million dollars. 4 years at 6-7 mil is more reasonable, but I’d still wait until the end of the season, as his overall is likely to go down if his bad season continues
Gavin and Misa get to mid 90s Misa is a sim beast
Yeah that injury was weird depth was better check cycle pinch balance
I’d resign Swayman for 4 years to line up with the other contracts
Develop nordh, he will turn out to be a good top 9 guy in ur future
Need more in game looks!!
The game doesn’t make sense, it’s typical EA that your team plays better when you have a worse overall injury replacement in on the 3rd line.
Tbh, it would be pretty boring if better player on paper always meant better performance. Not realistic either
