While X-Factors are a significant part of NHL 24, it's important to note that their value may vary depending on your gameplay style. Hardcore players often use X-Factors to trade for Team of the Season or Team of the Year cards. With the changes in NHL 24, X-Factors should serve as a means to represent your favourite players and teams.
