NHL 24 has released a new roster update, adding players to the game, and overall adjustments due to performance

EA SPORTS released a roster update in NHL 24 featuring overall increases and decreases to numerous players. The NCAA players who have signed recently with their club teams have also been added to the game.

Auston Matthews and Quinn Hughes both received a +1 to their overalls, getting them to 95. Matthews finished his season one goal shy of 70, but still put forth a season for the ages becoming the first player to score 69 goals in a season since Mario Lemieux did it in 1995-96.

Quinn Hughes broke his own record for most points by a defenseman in Canucks history. He currently has 91 points on the season with Vancouver's last game of the season tonight against Winnipeg. Hughes is seen as the front-runner to take home the Norris Trophy.

Another player who got a boost to their overall in NHL 24, which was well deserved, is Juraj Slafkovsky. After a disappointing rookie season and a slow start to the year, the former first-overall pick ended up with a 20-goal campaign and 50 points, playing in all 82 games. His overall went from 82 to 84.
