Montreal Canadiens defensemen lead new cards

After announcing last week that Community Request players would be returning for the first time in NHL 24, the first 10 players have been released in Hockey Ultimate Team. 

All 10 players were recommended by and voted for by the community. Unlike many previous releases this season all of these players are truly elite and all come rated 92 overall.

The Community Request players provide a nice variety of players, with five forwards and five defensemen with both active and inactive players among the release.

All of the new defensemen except Nemec have a ton of size and have great skating ability. This combination goes extremely well with the current momentum-based hitting meta.

This first round of Community Requests has something for everyone and is one of the better releases of the HUT season.
