 Oh, baby, are you guys in for a treat? Yo, what's going on Leaf Nation? It's Leaford back again and welcome back to the channel today We have a crazy Insane video for you guys. We are opening up an icon choice pack All right, the moment has come we are now doing the power-up icon set if you guys are gonna do this I suggest throwing in non-NHL players if you plan on doing team builders So make sure you throw in non-NHL players into the set Just for that fact. So here we go. We can get completely screwed in this pack. I'm gonna be honest with you guys I hope that's not the case. You can only do this one Once all right. I think it's a three-choice one again Obviously the big ones being Mariela Mew and Wayne Gretzky All right, we're gonna do this again chat. Give me a number. Give me a number and we're gonna go with that one All right Whoever says a first that's what we're going with to we're going to Marnus is to 17 all right, hold on. We're gonna go 17. Let's do some math with a snuffer Okay, so we're gonna go to then three and then one. All right chats helping me out here number two Show me Wayne or Mario, baby Wayne or Mario Daniel Siddin, okay Okay That's not great That that that's definitely not great Okay I'm a little depressed, but we still got two choices. That's that's the good thing about this All right, we're going number three Better than an 83, baby. Oh, no. Oh No, oh no Oh No, oh No, oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Okay. Okay, okay Okay, one's got to be better man. One's got to be better. Please Okay It's not Mario or Wayne, but it's an 85 That's pretty good. Actually, you know what that's actually that's kind of nice 87 speed you get him up to another a plus one. That's an 88 speed 82 face offs Pretty good Excel pretty good shot. Honestly good puck control. Good passing good deaking. Honestly, that's good That's good out of the three. I mean obviously not the greatest choices, but I'll take a Peter Stasny We're gonna have to try him out. I guess that's that's what it is So guys after that icon choice pack, this is what the team is looking like We had a couple synergies activated and wingman and magician But we'll go line by line and then we'll show who has what activated So the first line be a Mitch Marner Leon dry saddle and Evgeny Kuznetsov. I really do like this line Very fast wingers dry saddle is pretty fast for his build. He's been super good for me 22 games played 13 goals nine Assist not too bad. Marner's been decent for me as well. Not the greatest I've been having trouble scoring this year to be honest So I'm trying to work on that But these are probably my two favorite cards in this game or my top three They're in my top two of my top three for sure So Marner dry saddle Kuznetsov very speedy line second line We did get Ovi in an x-factor re-roll you guys saw that on Monopoly Hut if you do wash my monopoly Monopoly Hut series So we got Ovi Peter Stasny and Nicholas Baxter Ovi we got to get upgraded man at an 83. He's decent a little too slow for my liking Though we got to get him up to at least an 85 or an 87 to try him out there Peter Stasny. I'm a huge fan up to be honest man. Six in games played four goals one assist The only complaint I have with him is he gets knocked off the puck pretty easily So if you look at his strength 86, which is pretty good But when he's skating with that puck if someone pushes him or tries to bump him He's he's gonna react to it He's gonna lose the puck which kind of does suck and then on the wing there We got Nicholas Baxter. So we got a little Washington line going here kind of Huge fan of the second line like I said Stasny super quick and Ovi's been he has a good shot and Baxter was actually quick too Third line looking pretty good actually Steven Stamco's Patrice Bergeron and Gabriel Landeskog Huge fan of this line very big fan of Steven Stamco's this year probably one of my favorite cards to use For the third line 27 games played six goals six assists for a third liner I feel like that is pretty good Bergeron I've played a couple games with him maybe six to be exact hasn't really done much very good on The draw zone pretty good rating there and Gabe Landeskog not one of my favorite cards this year to be honest He's a pretty good shot, but man is he slow? He's he's just slow man. He's really slow. It's hard to get Up the ice with them. So you got to kind of find him give him a shot and he'll snipe it and the fourth line We got Chuck Kobasu who we took from the icon or the team building choice pack that you get for Building or for pre-ordering the game on say copetar who is one of my favorite centers and builds in this game And I absolutely love using this card. I feel like he shouldn't be on the fourth line I might bring him up to the third or even the second line probably the third because we have Stasny on that third line by man. He's been good. He is slow I will say that he is very very slow, but man when he has that puck especially with unstoppable force man, he is Unstoppable to get off of the puck man one of my favorite cards to use very good shot I do enjoy using him and then we got Kendall coin show field who we did get in the monopoly hut series in a Premium gold pack. So if you guys are watching that series, you guys are missing out a lot on I suggest you guys do Watch it, but this card one of my favorites. She is super fast man. You give her that puck She is flying through everyone and she's setting up someone she doesn't have the greatest shot But the perfect thing is with her is she gets by who she needs to get by she'll look for someone That's open and you'll create a scoring chance off of her With that. So which is amazing. So forward core is good. I'm looking to get Matthews eventually just right now He's out of my range a little bit just by like 10k or so. I do want to get his x-factor eventually, but a little secret between you and I his x-factor is going for like 800k and Yeah, I don't have that. I'm about 700k off. Look at the defense man It could definitely be better Eric Carlson and boom Byron. We are working our way to getting these Collectibles a hot spotlight collectibles to start upgrading him man, but in an 84 Can't really complain with him very fast decent little shot. He does get knocked off the puck a little too easy I do find but that's where you're gonna get with a 6 1 1 90 build And then we got Eric Carlson playing with him not much really to say about him I honestly, I'm not a huge fan of my defense The only two cards I really like are the Byron and the Quinn Hughes on my second line here Everyone else. I'm not a fan of Eric Neckblad has been okay. Again. I've only played a couple games with him literally just one So Eric Neckblad Quinn Hughes playing with each other Quinn Hughes. I'm a huge fan of super fast Good shot again. He can just blow by anyone. It's it's beautiful and then on the third line defense We are Rasmus Sandin and a bulk with just for the synergy So looking at our synergies wingman, which gives us plus four to discipline plus two to passing plus four shop Locking plus two speed is equated to Leon dry settle air neck blad Mitch Marner Ovi and Sandin Which is nice, especially the speed for Ovi He does need it same with eggplant and same with dry saddle and then we got magician activated as well two to agility to the deaking for the durability and to the puck control and that's going to dry saddle back Bokwist copet are and Palmer. That's our backup cool tender So, you know, this does really help our X factor player in dry saddle, which is nice And then in that we do have we're just rocking carry price right now I was rocking Vasilevski for a bit didn't really enjoy him was rocking shister again for a bit Did not enjoy him at all He was horrible for me carry price has been decent for me man 20 games Nate a 20 save percentage Not the greatest could be better, but I feel like I'm just horrible about defense So it's just how my goalie stats are gonna look. But yeah guys that is it for today's video I know it's a bit of a shorter one that you guys are used to seeing but we open up an icon choice pack We got Peter Stasny who I've been enjoying I showed you guys my first team update in NHL 23 and I hope to bring you guys more and I hope to get better players because I Don't know man. I'm a fan of my team, but at the same time I'm not if that makes sense so I do need some very much needed upgrades But yeah guys like I said that is it for today's video if you guys did enjoy We should drop a like on it if you guys are new around here Make sure to subscribe button down below we are on the road to 5,000 subscribers at the time of recording this I believe we are just about 300 subscribers from 5k, which is absolutely insane so if you aren't subscribed make sure to hit the subscribe button down below and Also, make sure to follow up the twitch the link will be in the description twitch.TV slash leaf or underscore ice cream there Almost daily from 8 p.m. EST to 12 or 1 p.m. EST So if you guys enjoy watching twitch streams I also do stream on twitch because like I said that is it for today's video Thank you guys very much for watching and I'll talk to you guys later.
