Introduction
Overall, this is a great NHL game. Unfortunately, the achievements are not very fun since they force you to play a lot of offline Be A Pro. A majority of the achievements are very easy however some may take some time. This is the most time consuming NHL game to date. As long as you are willing to boost HUT, put in a lot of time and some effort, it is not that bad of a 1000.
Be A Pro **Read this to avoid confusion**
People seem to get very confused about these achievements but its very simple. All of the achievements that say "with a created Pro" means you MUST use your created pro. You cannot select an existing real life NHL player to get the achievements. You can start your Be A Pro either in the CHL, at the NHL Entry Draft, or just selecting what NHL team you want to play for. If the achievement description says ANYTHING about NHL career or NHL Be A Pro season, that means your player must be in the NHL in order to get the achievements.
EASHL (EA Sports Hockey League)
There a 5 achievements that must be done in EASHL. Every Man, Taking Shots, EASHL Playoffs, EASHL Hero, and Hats Off To You. EASHL (often referred to as club) games are when you create or join a team to play online Be A Pro against other EASHL teams. A minimum of 2 players is required to search for a match. At the end of each month the single elimination playoffs begins but luckily, the only achievement tied to this is to play a playoff game so you don't even need to win. Any team with at least 1 game played will be qualified.
Online Be A Pro (OTP or Drop In Games)
These are basically the same as EASHL except it's just random people all matching up together. You will be able to unlock EASHL Rookie 1, EASHL Pro 1,and EASHL Legend 1 in either these game modes or EASHL. They all add up to the same performance tracker so you could have 100 OTP games and 50 EASHL games to get your legend card.
HUT (Hockey Ultimate Team)
HUT is one of the game modes new to last years game and it is still the same set up. You collect cards to build and improve your team. Team Doctor, EAUHL 24/7, Amateur Contender, Pro Contender, Elite Contender, HUT Playoff Winner, Complete Set, and Past Their Potential can only be obtained here.
Versus
There are only 3 Ranked Versus achievements and they are Versus Rookie, Versus Pro, and Versus Legend. You just need to get to level 25 which is not too bad. Especially because you can boost if you are having a hard time getting wins.
