NHL 25 TEAM OF THE YEAR
Each year Chel nominates a lineup of hockey superstars who burned brightest over the previous calendar year. This is a celebration of their skill, grit, and achievement — and a way for Chel players to build out their squad with the sport’s best.
How It Works
There will be 15 nominees from both the NHL and PWHL, comprised of seven forwards, five defenders, and three goalies, respectively. Only six players from each league will make the Team of the Year.
Nominee Card Packs
Nominee Card Packs will be released on 1/22 and will remain available in-game until the event launches on 1/24. Nominee Cards for those who make TOTY can be traded in for a Winner’s Card, which can be built up to higher OVRs with further upgrades and more.
