I like the lack of names for this mod. It’s perfect because (1) we aren’t dealing with an NHL team with real people (2) the teams have a hive mind kind of rating system - each team has a strength that goes across all individuals. It’s cool.
This beer league concept is fun because it’s low-level hockey (yes, very few fans 🙂)! I’d love to see it in ‘94 (no names, or we enter our own buddies). Even more garage-league would be roller hockey (maybe even ball hockey), 4-on-4, and fake teams from the local neighborhood.
There is something also very perfect about the golden, bubbly beer, the keg/cases, and the bottle caps.
