As we creep closer and closer to the opening game of the 2018-2019 NHL season, one of the checkpoints along the “off-season journey” is the release of the NHL video game courtesy of EA Sports. Now that the game has been available to the general public since last Friday, we get to see what EA thinks of this season’s edition of the Chicago Blackhawks.
With last season’s outcome being far less than ideal for Chicago, we were curious to see what the game developers would rate the current Blackhawks roster. EA released ratings on the top 50 players in the game during their debut of the game, so we only know that Patrick Kane is a 91 and Jonathan Toews is an 87.
