for Oilers my guess for ratings would be

Hall(89) - RNH(87) - Eberle (86)
Pouliot(85) - McDavid(80) - Yakupov(84)
Kourpioski(80) - Lander (81) - Purcell(82)
Hendricks(79) - Letustu(80) - Gazdic(75)
Draisaitl(79)


Sekera(86) - Klefbom(84)
Fayne(84) - Schulz(83)
Ference(81) - Nikitin(79)
Nurse(79)

Talbot(84)
Scrivens(82)

oh idk. maybe that one is a TOP 3 LW in the NHL, and is consistently PPG when healthy and the other is top 20 in NHL scoring the past 4 NHL seasons about being top 10 RW?

for Oilers my guess for ratings would be

Hall(89) - RNH(87) - Eberle (86)
Pouliot(85) - McDavid(80) - Yakupov(84)
Kourpioski(80) - Lander (81) - Purcell(82)
Hendricks(79) - Letustu(80) - Gazdic(75)
Draisaitl(79)


Sekera(86) - Klefbom(84)
Fayne(84) - Schulz(83)
Ference(81) - Nikitin(79)
Nurse(79)

Talbot(84)
Scrivens(82)

That team is better then Detrot Red Wings in my NHL 14.

28, 28, 24, 28, 30. 30. That is where Edmonton have been after 82 games the lasts 6 season. Its safe the say that they are the worst team in NHL. And this is coming from someone who has been following them for 3-4 years. Call me cynical but they just aint as good as you want them to be. Dont take it personally, they just are the worst team in the league. And its not being mean, its fair analysis of their last 6 seasons.

They have been too young and inexperienced. Bad management and trades and very sloppy play. Hall, RNH, Eberle and Yakupov are without a shadow of a doubt, fantastic players with amazing potential. But none have them have ever done a ppg season or play consistently through out a season. Those are all valid things you have to consider when rating a player.

You want Hall to be rated 89? Taylor Hall is not as good as Zetterberg. Zetterberg is by far a better player in most ways. He makes more points, have a bigger pressence on ice and has acomplished more. He is also more consistent. Think about it.

And since you cant read. RATINGS NEEDS TO BE TONED DOWN. Read it twice so you understand it.
In NHL there are like 50000000 players rated 84-90. It doesnt make any sense at all.

Hall(85) - RNH(84) - Eberle (83)
Pouliot(84) - McDavid(73) - Yakupov(82)
Kourpioski(77) - Lander (79) - Purcell(79)
Hendricks(75) - Letustu(78) - Gazdic(75)
Draisaitl(79)


Sekera(83) - Klefbom(80)
Fayne(80) - Schulz(82)
Ference(81) - Nikitin(79)
Nurse(79)

Talbot(84)
Scrivens(82)

That is a far more fair rating system based on waht each player has played and acomplished.

Oh and mcdavid is hasnt even played 1 nhl game and is just a rookie. He doesnt deserve anything higher than 73. I bet he is going to suck in the same way every other kid does in Oilers when they get too much ice time / pressure on them.

Such a cringe worthy post. I'm not even going to try and argue that.

So.....you're saying Pouliot is 84 while Hall is 85, Eberle 83 and RNH 84? There are other things I'd like to comment on about your post but I just don't know how to even begin so I wont

Fair. Lower pouloit. But there is nothing wrong the the stats of hall, eberle and rnh. They are very fair. Also, learn to read: stats needs to be toned down.

You dont have to argue anything. Oilers is the worst team in the league. You cant argue against the stats.

I can read thank you very much and I don't have any objections to toning down the ratings. That wasn't my problem with your post. Individual player ratings has very little to do with the problems Oilers have had at the organizational level. A player can still be a great player even though his team sucks. And unlike you said Hall can still put up some points on the worst team in NHL. In 2013-2014 season he was 6. in points with 80 points in 77 games which at least to me is point per game.

Another example could be the Leafs. They were horrible last year but their roster wasn't as bad as the standings would suggest. Decent players but the team was bad as a whole. I wouldn't rate Kessel 83 or Phaneuf 81 just because they played on a team where nobody covered for each other. Can't take any points of Kessel's skating or shot categories because of his attitude issues either.

Also I would rate Hall same as Zetterberg. Hall's skating would boost his overall and he'll be more one-dimensional offensive player where as Zetterberg will be more balanced and defensively sound. It's up to you to decide which one you prefer in the game. Same overall doesn't mean they're the same.

Schultz and Ference have accomplished more then Fayne? Fayne is a much better player now and i'm pretty sure EA bases their ratings on who they think is good now(even though their ratings suck), not what they have accomplished in a whole. and why, why do you have to make a "hasn't played a game" argument, he(McDavid) is being compared to Sidney Crosby, the best NHL player in the WORLD. Even saying he will suck with too much pressure is just asinine, he will have good linemates and he will play just fine. There isn't much too it. I do agree with the Hall thing though.

Yes, he did a great season. But that should not be enough to make him a top 5 player. Do you think Harry Kane should be as good as Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Fifa since he scored 21 goals last year? That is what you are saying. If Hall makes another ppg season, yes, bump him up with 3-4 points. He just isnt there yet.

God i hope they really DONT base their ratings on what they THINK but rather what each player has acomplished.

Well what do you think McDavid will accomplish? And think about his skill set. Certain players should be toned up rating wise in something because they excel at it(i.e. Ovechkin with highest shooting rating) but whatever, EA's ratings are whatever. At least we can edit them this year so I so no real reason to complain.

 

[ProbertKocur]

O.V.E.R.R.A.T.E.D for me

Datsyuk is good (I'd place him at 89 ovr) but Voracek is better (I hate the flyers)
Voracek is completely better offensively and Datsyuk is better defensively. Plus, Datsyuk is old so Ive expected regress in his case.

It's your opinion but Datsyuk at 93 is ********

LOL

Voracek has one good year and he's better than Datsyuk. Apparently Voracek is "completely better" what ever the **** that means, than Datsyuk offensively? I guess if guy one is one point away from ppg and guy two is two above ppg, guy one is "completely better"?

Taylor Hall playing in the worst team in NHL with coaches changing every season.

2010-2011: 0,65 ppg
2011-2012: 0,87 ppg
2012-2013 : 1,11 ppg
2013-2014: 1,07 ppg
2014-2015: 0,72 ppg

and let's add WC gold medal this year to his "accomplishments" where he was 1,2 ppg.

Henrik Zetterberg playing in a great organization, under one of the best coaches and also with Pavel Datsyuk

2010-2011: 1 ppg
2011-2012: 0,84 ppg
2012-2013: 1,04 ppg
2013-2014: 1,07 ppg
2014-2015: 0,86 ppg

I mean it's pretty even maybe Z being a little bit better. Your perception of player skills is flawed if you think Zetterberg is superior to Hall. Also on basing the player ratings on accomplishments is also flawed. EA's scouting department looks every player individually and evaluate their skill set based on that. If a player is a fast skater and has great hands doesn't mean his speed should be 85 and dekeing 85 just because he hasn't accomplished anything.

[Wooren]

Another biased Datsyuk fan...

This thread is filled with biased Detroit fans...

 

[Constable]

this thread is filled with fans of bottom tier teams overglorifying their players because apparently all that matters is points

zetterberg is a two way player
hall is a offensive dynamo

obviously hall is going to get more points since he is offensively oriented (and he also could quite honestly do whatever he pleases) but zetterberg has been around for longer and has better defensive play



you also need to know how the overall system works, they just dont spit an individual number out and call it a day. snipers get their stats from shooting, skating, offensive awareness but put less stock in defensive awareness, fighting skills, etc, while zetterberg would do the reverse.

hall should be a 90
zetterberg should be a 90
datsyuk should be an 89
hopkins should not be no higher than an 88
connor mcdavid should be no higher than an 83.
