    What I’ve learned as an adult trying to learn new things (I took beginner’s swim class a few years back when a lifeguard suggested I should stay out of the deep end at my local pool, too) is that a bit of struggle is OK. It’s why, I think, I was able to let go of the frustration of NHL 25’s lack of tutorial or introductory mode. Despite its steep learning curve for a newbie, NHL 25 fits naturally into my little world of hockey.
