I know you want to space the videos out and give everyone time to catch up and for the fan art to develop. But one of the reasons why the Utah GM mode was so good is because you streamed it every 2-3 days. It would be nice to get an episode every 3-4 days for this GM mode too
Christmas and New Year break and he only put out like 1 video… it’s Johnny. You think he’s gonna finish series in a row, without disappearing? Without yelling at he game? With giving 100% effort? Lmmfao… right…
I ran into this problem but I was able to circumvent it. If had Rossi on the first line and wanted him to have better chemistry on the first line but like Johnny, in my conversation, it would only allow me to make him better on line 2, 3, 4. I went into edit lines and moved Rossi on to line 2 and tried again and magically, since he wasn’t in line 1, it let me change his scheme fit for line 1
John I have a fix for the chemistry issue that doesn’t involve firing Andrew Brunette: You can change your coaches schemes to match your AHL coach. Even if your AHL coach isn’t exactly what what you want you can hire any free agent coach that does have the perfect scheme fit, promote them to AHL coach, change Brunnettes schemes, then go back to whoever you want as your AHL coach. Hope this helps
Posted this on the live stream too but if your AHL coach is the same scheme as Torts was, you can have a conversation with your new NHL coach and force him to follow your AHL scheme. Would solve your issue of line 1 not showing up in conversations.
In no way would the hawks wanna make that trade and speed up there rebuild. They barely have pieces outside of Bedard and korchinski and adding Drysdale will just keep them as a bubble team
Just a flag that the coaching scheme fit bug was reported to the EA NHL forums and was sent to the devs. We'll see what good that does but hey, at least they know.
@@xZora25 The scheme fit conversation option was only introduced recently in a patch like a month ago. I've never come across this bug being reported in the forums.
No Tocchet No McDavid = CAP SPACE - Trade Drysdale to Chi - Trade for young C from Anahiem - Trade Kane , Try to get a better D partner for York - Laughton for Levi you can move him when the prospects ready. And replace Laughton's PK in FA - Extra trade assets Ersson, Perbix, Risto, Zamula. - Keep JVR he needs to retire a Flyer
I think we need to commit to a clear direction for the team. Right now, we’re mediocre across the board, and at this pace, I expect we’ll either barely miss the playoffs or lose in the first round. The way I see it, we have two options: 1.) Focus on developing and acquiring younger players-a sort of mini-rebuild. 2.) Make moves for established players to push for a deeper playoff run, assuming we believe this team has real potential. Hovering between these two approaches is risky and could hurt the team long-term. If we do nothing and just let it run as is, and miss the playoffs, we’ll have wasted an opportunity to acquire young talent (trading roster players for prospects wouldn't be directly bad, we miss the playoffs either way). If we make the playoffs but lose early, it’ll feel like a missed chance to bolster the roster for a stronger postseason push. Not entirely sure what either path would exactly look like, but I think we need to decide now where we're going with the team. TLDR: Commit to either retooling for future years or pushing for the playoffs.
I would say goalie wise bob makes the most sense you dont wanna get a younger goalie like Levi cuz hes tryna find a home long term and you have prospects to take his job in the future plus a home coming for bob would be a cool storyline
With your recent winning ways, I'd say you can keep Drysdale for now and trade him at the draft, he is an RFA after all. Beside that, I'd say picking up a goalie would be smart, personally I like Bobrovsky.
You should do the Drysdale-Levshunov swap in the offseason. At the deadline you should go for Kochetkov with a package involving Brink and Ersson/Driedger, then get JVR in for Brink on the third line
I dunno but the scheme fit things makes sense for me. NHL Players are not exactly known as being flexable. So they have a way they play then if you bring in a different coach you ask them to change there preference once makes sense if they say no or yes. But to constantly ask them and expecting them to be say yes sounds cheesey. I like the limit on it. I truly think its designed to be a one off kinda thing. Like when Toronto brought Spezza in and was like your a bottom 6 guy now. I know its just a game and EA putting these limits on a offline mode is kinda weird, but i also understand where they are coming from.
If your talking about Kane McLeod Tippet, they might accept but then they want to play first line, and so does Konecny, Coturier, Michkov. If your suggesting that he moves the top line to Line 2 and then asks them it still won't have the prompt as it's asking them to change their in game role and play style to match the coaches scheme for that line. So the problem is Michkovs line is listed at 1st liners in the menu under there "Role" but their chemistry matched Tort's game style not Burnetts. Simply moving them in the line up won't change that they're listed as first line players in their roles. If that makes sense ?
Year 3 draft your Have to tank because there is offensive defenceman named Landon Dupont and he is medium Franchise potential defenceman and he is real player and is THE best prospect since Bobby Orr
Definitely think GM Superbman should try and unload a bunch of players at the deadline. Acquire younger talent and draft picks and have a slight retool. Michkov needs a true #1 center if you truly wanna unlock his talent, focus on that in the draft
Johnny never trust the EA voodoo. My suggestion is to have this season be a throw out and try for Mckenna then go for the playoff the next season. You don't a Vegas Tyson Barrie situation again where you go all in at the deadline for the playoffs just to miss out on the playoffs and get a bad pick as a result. Since your not in a playoff spot at the moment and since the Atlantic is still quite strong it would be better to sell at the deadline and try to get Gavin Mckenna who would be a perfect future captain and a great producer especially if you put him on the first or second line as he's got high to medium franchise potential. Plus the 2026 draft is going to quite deep so its good to take one more season of restructuring then go all in free agency. Plus you can easy get a high end draft pick for Drysdale. Make the right decision Johnny. Also Gavin would look right at home playing with the flyers in the orange, white and black!!
Just don't feel an urgency on a direction for this team. At the moment you're letting the team be mediocre. Wins too many to be out of reach for a top pick, loses too many to feel good about any playoff chances. We need to commit to a plan and execute, not continue to waste years of Michkov
Did he not use the sliders he had for Be A Pro? I feel like might help the quality of jumping in the game. The be a pro was watchable with that AI buff
I think you're a fringe team at best. IMO, flip Drysdale for Levshunov. At a -16, even on a struggling Bedards, he doesn't seem to be liking the fit over there. I think getting him for the contract you want for Drysdale would be the better option. As far as the rest of the team goes....I'd say take it up to the deadline, after making that trade and getting the injuries back up and moving, and IF you're still set on a playoff run, make something happen then. Don't think Kane would mind chilling on a fringe team, I mean, Detroit isn't exactly a current contender IRL.
There's no reason not to ship Drys at the deadline now, you can't do anything with his chemistry and he's not producing sell him off before he asks for the house
Maybe the audience can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think doubling up people on both powerplay lines should be banned from the series. I don't think it's something that teams do IRL or in the game, and it just inflates the stats and overall of these players
Please do something about that AI play it is unwatchable, this game somehow is getting worse, but absolutely love your GM modes keep doing your thing hopefully EA will get its shit together one of these days lol

Especially considering the fact so many people watching were off work/school these past couple of weeks.
The reason I didn’t really watch the Utah GM mode was the uploads were too frequent. Could never get time to catch up

Nothing for months
It's been like this since release, has been reported numerous times. It might be fixed by NHL 28.

I like getting Levi. Upgrade in net, and D’aigle won’t be ready for at least 3 years. Levi can bridge the gap until D’aigle is ready
Thanks for the spoiler smh lol
No Tocchet No McDavid = CAP SPACE

Söderblom has to get called up, perfect 3rd 4th line player
Helt rätt
Love the editing done. Been a while since ive tuned in but glad to be back!
This was a rough stream 😂
about dam time Johnny, please post more, this saves me
the hockey guy clip had me lmao
I would say goalie wise bob makes the most sense you dont wanna get a younger goalie like Levi cuz hes tryna find a home long term and you have prospects to take his job in the future plus a home coming for bob would be a cool storyline

I traded for Levshunov in my Montreal franchise and he had 400 goals by age 37 with med sim scoring… shoots really well for a dman
THG MENTION IN THE INTRO RAHH
Gavin Mckenna is Low Franchise, and went 8th overall when I did franchise mode. could be a huge pickup
You should do the Drysdale-Levshunov swap in the offseason.
At the deadline you should go for Kochetkov with a package involving Brink and Ersson/Driedger, then get JVR in for Brink on the third line
Tank for Gavin Mckenna him and Michkov will be a lethal duo for years to come
The fans want to see some playoff hockey in Philadelphia again
Is it true that when the flyers are great, they’re the city’s favorite team? I’ve heard that a lot

Does double shifting on PP work in sim? I know it doesn't work when you actually play.
The second Draisaitl signed it was a foregone conclusion that McDavid was staying
Check contracts to see CHL prospect growth. Sometimes goalies grow super quick
Injuries being turned on higher ruin the fun of gm mode
What happens if you have them on the second line and you ask them 1st line
If your talking about Kane McLeod Tippet, they might accept but then they want to play first line, and so does Konecny, Coturier, Michkov.

Know if there’s any Batman games coming out? Loves the tale tale series just rewatched it
don’t think there’s a world where Chicago does that trade unless you overpay. They’re gonna value the rookie being on a rookie contract
I took the daily Utah yetis upload for granted, we need more EPs !!!
Year 3 draft your Have to tank because there is offensive defenceman named Landon Dupont and he is medium Franchise potential defenceman and he is real player and is THE best prospect since Bobby Orr

We are so back
They’ll introduce this stuff this year and by nhl 30, they’ll have it down so that it only doesn’t work 25% of the time. $99 CAD game.
Put a shooter next to mich. 1.Kane or 2.tippet preferably
Only way to fix the scheme fit glitch is to sell at the deadline.
If you let the glitched guys' contracts expire, it should reset the glitch since they no longer have a contract.

The back up
Johnny! Please for the name of buffalo get Risto a cup with philly, the guy has been through it!
Lehigh changed their name and didn't tell anyone except the Flyers GM.
Levshunov/2nd for Drysdale. Chicago gets a right handed dman to pair with Korchinski.
There's no reason not to ship Drys at the deadline now, you can't do anything with his chemistry and he's not producing sell him off before he asks for the house

Kochekov makes a lot more sense than Flower
Kane can go for a 2nd or 3rd and prospeft
Levshunov is great too so trade for him and try trade Patrick Kane also Back to Chicago 😂
Keep it up liking the variety of content now a days cause EA NHL is a joke now
Goalie is what you need most. Trade Drysdale also
Drysdale just Costs too much so Dupont Will also fix that too
So drysale is asking to much trade like a re tool with the other guy as well.
Dont trade for Levshunov Johnny chicago doesnt want to give him up try to keep the trades realistic
Would never happen garnet Hathaway is not getting traded
Flower loves the pens. He would never play for some trash city like Philly. No pens legend can go to Philly.
Please do something about that AI play it is unwatchable, this game somehow is getting worse, but absolutely love your GM modes keep doing your thing hopefully EA will get its shit together one of these days lol
Trade for the chicago D and maybe get a vet 83-86 overall Dman
Don’t sell Kane, keep everyone and try and make playoffs, trade dryadale in the off season
Carter Hart is the answer
Drysdale has got to go Johnny. Levshunov would be nice. Or draft capital plus cap flexibility
Also Kochetkov for 1.5 yrs at 2 million is an absolute steal for what might cost a 2nd rounder
vintage jon
You need to trade for a center instead of a goalie
SELL THEM ALL
GOALIE TRADE FOR A GOALIE JOHN
Trade for a veteran goalie. Trade Drysdale in the offseason.
Pure mediocre team should be tanking for a 1C
sell off anyone over 25 besides Konnecny and get that 1st OVR pick
Can you please start simming from the main hub, the calendar is boring af, so much more to look at from the hub that you’re neglecting
You are thinking way too logical for EA, this is not real hockey, real hockey strats won't work in this crap of a game.
You just ruined the whole series for every flyers fan by singing Kane df are u doing

Man this game is so trash
