Welcome to Hockey Ultimate Team Builder


Nov. 21st, 2023 - New Feature: Custom Collections

Many may have noticed the new icon and menu item for Custom Collections.

This new feature was added to accommodate the different requests for tracking owned players or players of interest.

Custom Collections lets you create many collections of players in any way you want. Players you own, players you want, players with certain synergies, overalls, positions, etc. Put them all in one collection or separate them into many.

Adding a player to a collection can be done when viewing any player and hitting the "Save to Collection" button.

Once in a collection, the builder page now has a select from Collection option to quickly swap or view players in your collection to quickly test out different team builds and players.

The search for players was also revamped on the builder page. If there's any issue or feedback on these changes, please let me know on Discord or nhlhutbuilder@gmail.com
