Hockey Ultimate Team: HUT Thread, Part 32

Getzlaf is a big body though. And the only guy who really is a stud on faceoffs is Bergeron.

Lemieux and Couture are solid aswell

 

[iFishyHD]

Yeah, Getzlaf is really big, strong and hard to knock of puck. I really like him, but he's a bit slow and not so great in faceoffs, which is why I use him as a winger.

Bergeron is godly in faceoffs with his 95 faceoff rating, but Kesler is solid too with his 90.

Well all said, Getzlaf was a great center for me.

 

[YouCallThatHockey]

Also thinking about swapping Kessel for Hossa... thoughts? Kessel is the only reason I don't have 99 chemistry... only reason it's crossed my mind. not sure it's worth it?

 

[McDrailers]

Lemieux and Couture are solid aswell

Been staring at HL Couture for weeks and thinking about buying him. Where would he fit into my mix

Neal-HL Vermette-Vorachek (I need him gone, suggestions welcome)
Duchene-Kesler-Burns
HL Simmonds-Seguin (C)-Ryan
HL Nyquist-HL Stasny-Lucic

Couture and Duchene were better on wing.

A.)There faceoff ratings

B.) There speed and skill shows more on wing

Hossa is a stud. A great regular card for price IMO.

Well I've only played a couple games with him since pulling him but honestly he's not out of place at all as 1c. He's been dominant on faceoffs and backchecks well. I have HL Couture btw.

I wasn't too sure which wing to put him on so I changed Duchene to RW. Still adjusting to having a guy on his off wing in Div 1. tried cutting in for a snipe....

But would you do it?

 

[McDrailers]

But would you do it?

Not saying I would or wouldn't but IF you do. Can I get a stab at that Kessel?

 

[sushiman700]

For those of you have Byfuglien on your defense, do you feel like he takes too many interference penalties or is it just me?

 

[NYR89]

I am the only who used a really reallly bad 4th line to get more pucks out of win?

Also my 3rd line is mainly defensive for PK reason. something like Raymond-Bolland-Clarkson.

I do this because I only roll 3 lines. Never play the 4th. I didn't realize it got me more pucks . I always have a terrible backup goalie too.

I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary myself. Now Phaneuf destroying someone nowhere near the play is another story lol It's all random.. they'll high stick someone if they don't have the size of Buff anyway

Questions to ask yourself

A.) How much does 99 chem matter to me

B.) Do Kessels and Hossas stats look similar

C.) Can Hossa fill Kessels role

D.) Do I like Hossas stats

then decide, when I had Hossa I was a fan.

Yeah, modifier go higher with low overall team.

Yes... Thinking 99 Chem isn't worth to drop off in offensive skill. stats ones more offensive the other more defensive.. it's a wash really. I like that Kessel is righty on the right wing as it opens up a lot passing option is the shot isn't there. Thanks for helping me decide.

I believe Duchene has an 85 FO rating? You might want higher tho

Trying to get rid of a HL Duchene on xbox. Anyone care to buy it?

Already?

 

[Bluesin7]

You guys said prices are gonna drop when TOTY comes out right? So is it wrong of me to sell most of my team now to get back what I paid for em?

 

[l Landeskog l]

Already?

I've using the team for a couple of games, I came to realize that it is so slow. I can't use this team in Div 1 lol. It was just a bad experience.

I mean if I create an All-Pens team, that would be a different story.

Not wrong. Ill rebuy my team in 1 or 2 weeks.

 

[MsuSpartans]

My cousin landed a 99 Crosby Saturday and traded it lastnight for a MS 98 Crosby and 375k in pucks.... What do you guys think of that deal?

I think he probably could have gotten more but its not a bad deal.
