This is the single greatest thing i have seen on the Internet in probably years!
I might freak some of you out a little, but i've been not only playing NHL 98 and the original NHL Hockey since they both came out, but i've been KEEPING STATS in a notebook (and more recently in Excel) the entire time, playing entire seasons + playoffs in exhibition mode with BOTH controllers, controlling both teams. I've finished 12 seasons in that time, and am currently in the Conference semi-finals in season 13 (Anaheim/LA, Colorado/Phoenix, Pittsburgh/Boston, and Florida/Washington, if you're interested!)
If you're not frightened yet, then i'll tell you that i was 8 years old when i started doing this! Not every day of course, or else i'd probably be in season 50!
I had already set up my season 14 "regular season" schedule, but i clearly need to ditch it completely just to play it on this rom! Amazing work!
