I'm excited for this series, can't wait to get the game myself. Also not a huge fan of the white background because it's hard to read the line chemistries😅😂 but I guess that's what EA went with
I like how they did the trade value because if you would imagine like an either trade If it were to happen multiple top prospects and picks will be involved but in nhl 21 multiple top preopects won’t go through
Goalie chemistry boosts would be interesting to add in since some goalies like competition and some don't. Granted as a goalie im biased towards goalies and the games give them nothing
Does anyone know for sure if we pre order the xfactor edition that we get a power up icon?. It doesn’t say anything about it on the xbox store only on the Ea nhl Twitter
Very excited for this series!! Happy that NHL 22 is here and that means more fantastic content from you. I’m happy you chose a Seattle Kraken franchise mode right out of the gate! Myself I am looking forward to play a ton of franchise mode. I just finished my last sim in NHL 21 with my 4th cup in 10 years with Anaheim, re-branded as Mighty Ducks. Trevor Zegras was a beast! A good ending, haha!
@@TacTixHD Maybe check xfactors now they're in the game and have a lil look deeper into the players stats, and strengths and weaknesses etc. Your videos are awsome, I just think this will take them to an extra level with how good your prospect pool could potentially be
So basically, the only thing different between this franchise mode and NHL15-er-I mean NHL21 is X-Factors and literally everything else remains untouched. Thank you for helping me save $70. Have fun with HUT, see you for NHL23.
I've been playing franchise mode for many years. One thing I cannot understand. Whether it is TOR, NYR, EDM.....my PP chemistry is always a 5 and each season I am below 15% PP. I have tried all different strategies but nothing helps. Any ideas?
Kraken fan new to the sport and video game, learning so much from your vids. Question: When you offered Tkachuk, why did you only offer him the one year contract when he's only 22 years old and asking for 3 years? Thanks!
@@TacTixHD Great to see! Just got to the part in the video where you go over the stats and seeing Ovi with 77 goals and 126 points was a little worrying. Do you think that X-Factors could be slightly broken in the sim engine?
If I were you I would keep michkov a medium franchise, but I would lower his overall by a lot, because he is signed to the KHL until 3 years after his draft year, so it would be more realistic.
@@TacTixHD got ya. I’m on PS5 but I checked the roster shares on here & someone did their best job of emulating your rosters. It’s from December so I’ll use those. I had an idea of taking Colorado’s team & placing them on Seattle & trading for all first round picks & drafting all rookies for Seattle since their a brand new team & the best draft class rosters help. Thanks fam! Great video as always. I’m on your Ottawa season now.
Hope you guys enjoy the first episode of this new Franchise series! How many Cups we winning in Seattle??

@@DylanLivingston87 Ya the green needs to be darker FOR SURE
Can you buy it today for me it still says preorder?
imma go with a 3-5
I think 🏆🏆
Tactix - Beginning of video "I want to makes this as realistic as possible"
1st move - Attempts to sign Brady Tkachuk
Hey... if NHL GMs weren't cowards someone would try it haha
@@TacTixHD this aged well actually
Cool to see Prospects can gain X Factors while Growing. Also Love to See Seguin is still a Sim GOD
Radiology
That is actually one of my favourite features too, so cool to turn youth players into your future star players
In NHL21 Denis Malgin went from 79 overall to an 86 in one season playing 3rd line on the nhl roster
EA SPORTS... "its only game... why u haf to be mad"
@@Citizen__X1 Ilya brzygalov?
Same for me, he went to 89 for me lol
@@tylerwingert560 he went to 312 for me lolol
Dubas doesn't know what he's missing obviously 😅
I like how they did the trade value because if you would imagine like an either trade If it were to happen multiple top prospects and picks will be involved but in nhl 21 multiple top preopects won’t go through
Looking at this now after the draft seeing jaraj slafkosky in the second round is nuts
Goalie chemistry boosts would be interesting to add in since some goalies like competition and some don't. Granted as a goalie im biased towards goalies and the games give them nothing
The team ratings are atrocious. How is Winnipeg higher overall than Colorado? How is Minnesota lower than Anaheim?
It’s hard to see how accurate the potentials are in the draft
During the deadline day, you didn't notice that Sorokin was traded by the Islanders in the Kessel trade with Arizona
Ohhh good catch!
might wait until december discounts for this game so i can get it when roster sharing drops
I might still wait until NHL 23 for when they add more features to franchise mode. Doesn’t seem like they added much at all
why couldn't they drop roster sharing on october 15th when the full game releases for us mortals
@@jetswhiteout961 Yeah I thought about that, but I think the gameplay engine change is a significant enough change for me to buy it.
@@dwaynethewokjohnson7773 Agreed. It’s going to be very useful for franchise and be a pro. Unless they didn’t fix the be a pro salary cap glitch
@@zip5644 Yeah true. I’m still waiting on more reviews before considering buying. I also have 16, 17, 18, 20, and 21 lol
cool to see slafkovsky still available in the 2nd round and went 1st ovr in real life
Bringing Yams in is good for the franchise, he's a hometown kid from Spokane, Washington!
The way that green for the chemistry goes against the white is an eyesore
41:33 Ty fricking ronning straight outta camp
Bro I miss xTech 😥
I feel like Malkin on the penguins should be a X-Factor.
Does anyone know for sure if we pre order the xfactor edition that we get a power up icon?. It doesn’t say anything about it on the xbox store only on the Ea nhl Twitter
The value is actually good I mean if u want a elite/franchise it’s 3+ good pieces like in reality
funny to see how low slafkovsky was rated at 32:29
Cool vid. I loved watching some NHL 22 for the first time. I also don't mind us getting Wright ;) I hope it happends irl hehe
So glad you're back!

You will definitely benefit a lot more from taking the draft more seriously.
Send your scouts, get full stat info, etc
I've got 20 amateur scouts (mostly A+ in their region) spread all over the globe. Can't scout much better than that haha
@@TacTixHD Maybe check xfactors now they're in the game and have a lil look deeper into the players stats, and strengths and weaknesses etc.
Your videos are awsome, I just think this will take them to an extra level with how good your prospect pool could potentially be
I feel that fog of war would be good as you don’t know all the players potential yet as it’s the first franchise but either way it could be good
So basically, the only thing different between this franchise mode and NHL15-er-I mean NHL21 is X-Factors and literally everything else remains untouched. Thank you for helping me save $70. Have fun with HUT, see you for NHL23.
X Factor plus Ovechkin's shooting stats is nasty. How did he score 77 goals?
Oh man franchise mode for 2022 HERE WE GO
Did you just whip up the top 22 & 23 guys for your custom roster? Can we expect a video breakdown of that soon? :)
Slafkovsky is supposed to be a high 1st rounder so weird to see him ranked in the late 2nd in this game
bro literally went first overall wtf lmaooo
Boone Jenner with 89 points😂
They didn’t put Byfuglien in the free agency’s. Good to see that
Is there even a expansion draft??? For fun if u wanted to do it to change anything possible
You only have Podkolzin at 6 foot hes around 6'4 i think. Thanks for the video. hope to see an updated look at your custom rosters
When does game come out
I miss bacon country. I watch his old trade days sometimes and it gives me crazy nostalgia.
I've been playing franchise mode for many years. One thing I cannot understand. Whether it is TOR, NYR, EDM.....my PP chemistry is always a 5 and each season I am below 15% PP. I have tried all different strategies but nothing helps. Any ideas?
is there anyway too change the green + its really hard too see
You're in luck! New patch coming out has that fixed :)
Does the 3rd line still need all grinders to get max chem??
Kraken fan new to the sport and video game, learning so much from your vids. Question: When you offered Tkachuk, why did you only offer him the one year contract when he's only 22 years old and asking for 3 years? Thanks!
In the game players ask less for less years, he was just trying to get the lowest price possible for him
penguins done dirty at 86ovr lmao
The penguins are dirty.
Do they fixed auto scouting for franchise or still the same ?
Do you manage you coaches at all or do you auto staff?
The trade value man idk how they mess it up still. Plus the colors they have to switch it up. Hard to see sometimes.
I wonder if the double trade glitch still works
Once a franchise mode has started, how can a player be sent to free agency?
How did you get the game already?
how do y’all play i cant play
Really excited to download your roster when roster share comes out Cole and keep up the great videos
I’m getting heavy NHL 17 vibes with the colors
Is there any new features for franchise? Besides them adding Seattle.
can you change player type and/or position for a player in franchise mode?
Wild are second best in their division and an 86?
What are X factors?
I like they fixed the trade value bar because it can make it a pain when almost all prospect are off the bar so it’s hard to tell what there value is
isn't podzkolzin already in the game? also is their like a day one update?
Man, I’ve missed your videos 🙏🏼
did they not change anything in franchise mode? looks the exact same
Even in a simulation Chicago bringing back players😂
i am honestly so exited for the full release of this game can't wait to play it!!!!
Here's to hoping for a Svechnikov - Beniers - Ronning first line in the future.
Seattle stormbears legend Ty Ronning
@@deeznutz6595 Correction. Alaska Ice Eagles Legend.
Let’s gooo tactix is back!!
Yessir
Yes sir!
Yamamoto grew to an 86 from an 82 overall for me in just 2 seasons when I traded for him.
Great job
Nice How do you play it not set ?!
How come after the season ends in franchise year 1 all the good players get sent down? And way to fix it? Has this happened to u?
Who doesn’t love Ty Ronning
Isn’t podkolzin 6’4 not 6’0?
You have 2 controllers
In one of my franchise mode I looked if any goalies scored a goal and bibeau was the only one
Let’s gooo I’m excited
do you know someone who will make the ps4 version of the best roster when it comes out
LETS GO
Hell yes! Glad to see this back, buffalo after Seattle right? I need to see how my team should be fixed!
Great video!
How are you playing nhl 22 early
It comes out today with EA Play
It’s not out yet
Didn’t Boldy play in the AHL last year? I thought he’d be in the game
I got so glad when Lias Anderson signed bak with the kings, cuz im a kingsfan😂
Lets go baby
You should see if the franchise glicth still works with the picks that gives u 2 of the same picks
it does
Best series yet
Would absolutely love these pumped out as soon as you can get em out lol!
Good to see barely anything has changed lookwise. Lazy
Can you do the Sabres next
Did doughty grow so he got a zone ability?
love the franchise’s!
Why I didn’t have luke hughes
Not to mention that Yamamoto is a homestate boy from Washington, I think
have u seen getzlaf play lol
I was gonna do the Kraken Franchise but you are doing it which I am ok with it.
is there performance-based trade values? like if a top6 85ovr guy is having a career year will his value be higher at the deadline?
Yes definitely! Just in this video I noticed Wennberg had a lot as he was playing well, even though normally he's actually kinda overpaid for an 82
@@TacTixHD Great to see! Just got to the part in the video where you go over the stats and seeing Ovi with 77 goals and 126 points was a little worrying. Do you think that X-Factors could be slightly broken in the sim engine?
My man you’re sleeping on the Canucks this year! They have one of the best offences in the league!
Can't say I agree with that. I guess time will tell because they haven't been showing they have one of the best offenses in the league so far.
If you put the Fleury brothers on the third line they have plus two chem
Do Ottawa next
Is there a reason why Zegras doesn’t have a profile pic? Or is that a create a player??
Its not a created player and the reason why he don´t have a profile pic is cause EA Sports is lazy
Can you edit the hair on players who use generic faces? It'd make custom rosters look way more unique.
If I were you I would keep michkov a medium franchise, but I would lower his overall by a lot, because he is signed to the KHL until 3 years after his draft year, so it would be more realistic.
He makes them the ratings that he thinks they are now, not for the future
@@evankerr8756 yeah, but he won’t come over to the NHL until 3 years after his draft year.
What is the name of your rosters Tac?
TacTixHD TH-cam Roster - only on Xbox Series X/S unfortunately
@@TacTixHD got ya. I’m on PS5 but I checked the roster shares on here & someone did their best job of emulating your rosters. It’s from December so I’ll use those.

What’s there horn sound like?
I'll get it for you in Episode 2 haha
If I'm on Xbox one and your on Xbox series x...I can't use your roster in December
podkolzin was 6 instead of 6"4
