dmitry Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 This poll isn't going to make or break the final decision, but I want to see where you guys stand. If you vote, please add a comment. I prefer on. We are going to play with no line changes, and the teams will be stacked with talent.

SSiG Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I say no offsides. Only because I think having offsides off encourages wide open play, thus making for more exciting games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backhandfloater Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I prefer offsides off. It is simply too many stopages in play for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmitry Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I prefer offsides off. It is simply too many stopages in play for my taste. i suppose maybe you guys are used to playing with it off, but i have always played with it on, and you don't have many stoppages if you play it right. occasionally you'll have a player fall down in the zone, but then you just cycle the puck back until he gets out of the zone. most of you guys have way more playing experience than me, so i'm interested to hear more.

backhandfloater Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I guess I just like the wider open game play. I have played with offsides on and just simply thought it was a drag. Its just a lot of work to me to keep that whistle from blowing. Especially with the bad passing in Gens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokkeefan Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I cant belive that everyones scared to play with offside on ...cmon boys deal with it learn to put puck over before players and cycle the puck inside the zone play some REAL hockey !!!only way it will slow down game is if you cant adapt to it ...its really not that hard and will actually make games more interesting if you guys can grasp the idea of OFFSIDES in HOCKEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 oh come on, keep it real, offsides on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranatoro Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 i voted for off but i really dont care that much. i think that if you are going to go with no line changes, you aren't going for much realism anyway, might as well turn off the penalties and offsides.

edisaurusrex Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 i'd like onsides on and line changes, but I'll play either way, don't matter to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skoolyardpuck Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 this just doesn't feel like a game that needs offsides. People say they want it now, but it will be very frustrating for everyone come season time. Everyone's gonna have some players with speed who have too much momentum going forward and get called for an offsides because of the shabby AI 30 times a game. Offsides in games over 12 years old= very no Offsides in games under 5 years old= very yes EDIT: Anyone realize that NHL 94 has tag up offsides and the current games are just now adding it?....weird.
