Do you play NHL 19? The game has grown over the years, and it constantly pulls from the developments occurring in the actual league. A fun exercise is to predict what rating the players from your favourite team will be for each rendition of the game. Then compare it to the actual results upon the release which can sometimes create some heated debates, especially for a team like the Montreal Canadiens who have their skilled players with high ratings and roles players with average ones.
But it’s not as if EA makes the ratings in August and leaves them.
