So, I have tactics that will basically make any decent team win, offline. Online.. pretty good too. But anyways, is there a specific tactical setup for offline saves that produces tons of offense? I would just like to make a Gretzky 2.0 :dunno:

What tactics are you running exactly offline? Maybe it's just some smaller adjustment to make it work online, too.

Did you try to focus more on players personal tactics? That's what I found out can make a difference of say 10 to 15 percent in a match. I once had a 1st line in Vancouver (E.Kane - Horvat - Boeser) that led all players in league scoring - first, second and third and all 100+ points.

in my experience, personals haven't done me any good. My teams work better when I only use unit tactics

My offline tactics focus on personal tactics combined with good unit tactics. (and I run a more defensive offense based style online, it works well enough, not worried about it), but I can never seem to get the insane production some people can. Like, in 2020, a 1st line of Gaudreau-Monahan-Tkachuk (he became insane, PPG player), but none of them ever skyrocketed in production, and Im trying to figure out how to do that.

i have used unit tactics with personal tactics together . won two stanley cups online play and won 8 in a row offline with the canucks. now i just use unit tactics when i play offline or else i just dominate the cpu and i let my head coach run the team during the regular season except practise i always control the practise with II nor IM nor MM nor. i try to get coaches that have attacking or direct preference do to i like offense and my players win awards regularly . when the playoffs come input my unit tactics with only using personal tactics for hitting, aggression, fighting, joining the rush and pass shooting tendency. I am in no online leagues anymore used to be in 5 at one time but i couldnt get on for a month an due to inactivity was released from all 5 leagues . so i am currently running 3 seperate leagues offline and have a total of 3500 hours played on ehm. I bought ehm december 2016. this is the best gm game out there imo before i found this game i was playing ea nhl for xbox in total have been playing gm games since i was 10 years old i am 26 years old now :)

Anyone getting 150-point seasons for their top forward? If yes, please tell me how. The best I've ever recorded is 128 points for a winger and that was with some crazy chemistry (for a center my record is below 120 points).

I saw on the forum a very long savegame that had some player reach 175 points on his top NHL season, but that could have been mostly because of the late stage of the game, many decades into a career most of the opposing teams are bound to be pretty heavily handicapped...

At this time my teams do very well; typically I lose at most one in six Stanley Cups and those are usually flukes like having both goalies injured for the finals or something. I think I won 17 cups in 18 years on my last career. So for a long time I've been playing to create player careers instead. It is very tempting to possibly be able to create a career that would be top 10 in the history of NHL, or even top 5. But for that I need to get my top scorer's point production up. Typically my top three forwards average about 95 points per regular season on their career, even dropping below if I play them until very old age.

So how does one recreate a 'Mike Bossy' or a 'Bobby Orr' style phenomenon, where you score an absolute ton in ten years, so the remaining ten years of an EHM player career would have room for more pedestrian numbers? Looking to comfortably fly past the 2000 overall career points mark ideally. Doesn't seem too easy as even Connor McDavid isn't posting more than a 1.17 PPG career average on my current game, only breaking the 100-point barrier about half the time too.
