Sleeves, you’re the best. I watch you religiously.

Castlewayne1 here. Thank God bro I needed this lol. Thanks for everything you do for the community bro

Hey, these should be kept a little secret lol

Killin' it, as in me, on the draws. Great tutorial/tip video, man!

There's one thing. Let's say, you are on the left circle with a LH centerman in the offensive zone as it was in the last example. Instead of trying to pass to the right defenseman, you can aim the left stick to the left (9 o'clock), stay backhand and click the right stick back. The puck goes to left wingman. Cut to the middle (4 o'clock) and your right wing is often open for the same onetimer as it would be with a pass back to a defenseman. I don't remember this feature in NHL 20. So it shall be countered as straight back backhand.

That faceoff play in the O-zone kills me all the time. Thanks for the tips!

Thanks man, I suck at face offs

Nice! Making Vids while the fights on! Let’s go!

I find the tie up winger to winger 1 t works really well aswell

Its weird Ive never thought about this and I win like 90% of my face ofs with 85 stats w backhand down

OKAY BUT I just played a game 5 minutes ago and lost so many face-off to someone NOT even using a forehand backhand stance?? And I mean it was 21- 6 I'm shook and confused

You are forgetting one. The dont ready up, do nothing and win the faceoff everytime stance, or what ever they do. Ive played a couple of these and i Cannot for the life of me win against those. And i usually win 70%

So many times in online games (never happens against cpu in a play now game) my character doesn't even do anything at all on a face off, no animation, no movement, like I didn't even attempt to win the draw, yet a pop-up that says "good timing" will come up, as though I did something. Face offs online are so inconsistent.

What are your thoughts on changing to defensive faceoff line up in D zone to help block those automatic 1T goals then switching back to standard once out of D zone?

Thanks this really helped!!

Awesome content as usual. Could you do some videos about point shots strategies, winning board play against the AI and how to more efficiently bump the puck carrier off the puck? thanks!

Thank you so much man

Needed this. New to the series and keep getting killed on face offs

Very informative. Thanks sleeves!

I played a game, and my opponent acted on the faceoffs like he's just put joystick away, I mean there was no forehand or backhand animation before the puck was dropped, but I didn't manage to win a single face off through the whole game. What the heck???

Well explained dude thanks

Damn I have the same jerseys as you I did even know they’re just sauce

Nice. I can do the counter in a win or lose situation in a game and the game says F YOU and I still lose the draw with my draws not lower than 90. Sad game

How about a deke with R1 ? Chart show you can't win anything with it, but in reality especially against Ai in superstar it is guaranteed win. Even online I win most with this

Hey Sleeves! Thanks for the amazing content! I just got Lemiux and I was wondering as to if I am doing something wrong? I don’t have distributor and he seems extremely slow...? Thanks for the possible reply!! :)

Thanks Sleeves. I saved this video.

Thanks Sleeves, I’m improving my game but face offs are not my best part. Does bigger players WIN easier Tie-ups than smaller players?

congrats on div 1 man

Hey guys :) please could you tell me what is a good card for a newbie(playing hut for a week, team is overall 88) for app. 100k ?

You literally don't. The AI automatically wins every single time once you play pro or higher difficulty. Also you can't do a single poke check or stick lift without getting ejected and 5,000 penalty minutes but the AI can pick you off every single time with ease

Thanks Sleeves. Feel like this will be one of the videos I refer back to in the future. Very valuable information!

Hey sleeveless, I barly have enough collectables should I got for 92 Hughes?

And you didn't say anything about timing :-/ As for me it is very important too!

What about players who don't take a stance, still manage to win draw.

Not first😔

Gret video

Ok so I know the deke faceoff sucks but how do you do it? For playing cpu

Just lost 99% of draws in a game and the opponent didn't line up once

Do these tips work in 22?

They honestly didn't need to make face-offs so fucking complicated

This doesn’t help

these old thumbs LOL!!! ok sonny get off my lawn

Basic forehand only beat a tie up? Wrong :-) It's also beats basic backhand everytime.

Pro tip, don't have shit ping

To long explanation-

Tell why I’m getting lower skill and what that means horrible vid not what I’m looking for vid way to long

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeesh

First

Horrible vid
