EA Sports continued its ratings reveal for the upcoming release of NHL 16 with the top left wing players available for users. As with previous rating releases, only the top 10 have been announced.
It shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone that Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin leads the way with a 93 overall. The other members of the top five include, in order, Jamie Benn, Taylor Hall, Zach Parise and Max Pacioretty.
