That is awesome! Great/innovative find on your part. It could open some other possibilities. Thanks for sharing the concept!

Nice job @kingraph! I don't recall hearing of the scoreboard hack... how does it work?

I got your PM... I'll respond soon.

The 3v3 playoff version of this ROM has been posted in its own thread as well. Cheers!

Hi! The post-trade deadline/playoff version of this ROM has been posted at the top of this page. For important file details, please see the OP. Enjoy/Cheers!

One thing that I forgot to mention about this ROM... For playoff teams, guys not expected to play due to injury (i.e. - Drew Doughty) are in the ROM but not within the active players if you play with line changes turned on. They may appear in the NLC defaults. If an injured player(s) is rumored/expected to return/play in the playoffs, they are likely in the active rosters. For non-playoff teams, guys (i.e. - Sean Couturier, Clayton Keller, etc.) who had season-ending injuries are in the active rosters for line changes and possibly, NLC default. It makes it more fun to play as those teams. Lines and D-pairings are not 100% accurate so change them as you see fit. Cheers!

The playoff version of this ROM has been posted. I have removed versions 2-5. If anyone liked or needs one of them, PM me as I have them all saved. If you catch any mistakes, please let me know. Thanks!

Hello! Targeting tomorrow to post the annual "playoff" version of this ROM. If I can post it sooner, I will... I will also update my 3v3 version of it but that may take a couple extra days due to availability. Cheers!

Hi! Per my recent post (above), I have now posted new/updated versions of my Winter Classic ROM. There are 5 minute OT and 60 minute OT versions. With the former, after 5 minutes, you can challenge your opponent to a shootout in that particular mode (just like real life). What else is new/updated? Added the 2022 Winter Classic teams (STL vs MIN). All 650 players have been updated using an updated attributes tier structure. It is slightly different versus when I edited these players back in 2020. Approx. 90% of the NLC headshots have been updated with the remaining 10% "cleaned up" to some extent. With players who have been in multiple WCs, I, for the most part, used different images to show an age progression as well as document what they looked like as the years went by. "Cleaned up" a couple of the Team Selection logos. Several Team Rankings have been updated. Updated the music table for STL and MIN. This time around, I removed the kid pounding on the glass. It appears that this time, I did it correctly (I hope, as it was a little tricky). Updated the 2012 Rangers uniforms to be off-white/cream colored instead of white. Updated the 2017 Blackhawks away equipment to be a black helmet instead of white. For more details regarding this ROM and what to know, please review the notes in the original post. If you notice any mistakes, please let me know.

Well, that's certainly a new bug... thanks for reporting it. I do not have an resolution for you now. However, it's also not much of an issue as you can still edit the lines and D-pairs within the game (at anytime) and it/they will take affect. Just make the desired change(s) and click "exit" to go back to the gameplay menu. Don't save or load anything. Your changes will still appear within the game that you are playing. Thanks for downloading!

Hi! Been working on an updated version of this ROM. I added Minnesota and St. Louis from this year's matchup as well as some other bits and pieces (including new title screen)... ...updating and cleaning up some graphical stuff, at the moment, and I anticipate having it posted by end of this week (if not sooner). Coming soon...

If it's your "jam", I just posted a post-trade deadline version of the 3v3 version of this ROM. Cheers!

Post-trade deadline version now available in the OP. I kept the pre-trade deadline version as well. Cheers!

Welcome to the Forum!

Howdy! I got two requests to make Jeremy Swayman the default number 1 goalie on the Bruins. I wasn't aware he has taken over as such. The request seemed pretty reasonable to me so... done. Re-posted the file in the OP. If you already downloaded the file, and don't wish to re-download it, then you have Linus Ullmark as the default #1.

I just noticed one player on two teams ... DOH!!! Been fixed and re-posted in the OP.

The Trade Deadline version of this ROM (v5) is now available in the OP. *Rosters are "post-deadline" with one notable absence. I did not include Evgenii Dadonov. Thanks to the ineptitude of the NHL, and possible negligance of Vegas and/or Ottawa (as finger pointing continues), he is now back on the Vegas roster as the traded was voided. Unfortunately, Dadonov is rumored to still be on the trading block (which can still happen). Because Vegas screwed themselves, and have massive cap issues, there is a growing liklihood that Dadonov gets traded once certain injured players return (to be cap compliant). TBD. If he gets traded, he can no longer play until next season per league rules. If somehow, he manages to stay on the Vegas roster come playoff time *cough* mysterious LTIR of a player(s) *cough*, then I'll add him to my playoff/final version. *Injured players that are rumored to be returning this regular season, or for the playoffs, are still in active rosters (Stone, Ekblad, etc). There are some that are in the NLC mode (Couturier, Chabot, etc.) who are out for the season (injuries/surgery/whatnot). But, they are not in the active lines for line changes mode. *As per usual, all 800 players have been updated one way or another. As were several headshots/NLC players. Team ratings, per usual, were updated as well. *Lines and D-pairings are not 100% accurate. Change them as you see fit. If you notice any mistakes, please let me know. Cheers!

As an update, I will post the Trade Deadline version of this ROM sometime this week (not gonna forecast the exact date). There's plenty of work to do on it but, I got a good chunk of it completed today. Things like new jersey numbers are still being comfirmed so don't want to rush to post just to re-post. So... to come...

Good Evening! V4 of this season ROM has been posted (see OP). What's new/updated? *Out with Tuukka Rask and in with Evander Kane and Jack Eichel (who debuts tomorrow night) *Tyler Toffoli traded to CGY *Some additional players added (not as notable as Kane or Eichel) *Winnipeg's arena finally has the correct/new name (oversight on my part). LA's was updated in V3. If you notice any mistakes, please let me know. Lines are not 100% accurate. Left guys like Mark Stone and Anthony Mantha in the active lineups despite being on LTIR. As we don't know if they will return for the season, or just for the playoffs, I left them active (for now). Feel free to change as you see fit. Next update will be the Trade Deadline edition. Cheers!

No prob.

Thanks! Glad to hear that you are enjoying it! I just added a 10 minute OT version (just like the original NHL94). It's in the original post above. Enjoy!

I discovered that I have the wrong arena name for the Winnipeg Jets (an oversight) in the latest version of the ROM. It's incorrect in the 3v3 version as well. It will be updated in a later version. LA's funky new arena name was added to V3 as it became official at the end of December 2021.

If it's your flavor, I have updated this 3v3 ROM based on my 2022 season (recent) ROM update. Details regarding this file are in the OP. Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers!

Thank you! Konovalov is on the team "taxi squad" and has yet to play a game. He is 3rd on the depth chart behind Koskinen and Skinner. Mike Smith is expected back in a few weeks. Since Konovlaov is waiver exempt, he will likely be sent back to the AHL once Smith returns (assuming no one is traded). If he sticks around, I'll keep him in mind for a future update.

Adam - 2 things: 1. When you talk about (doing) your work, in my thread, you are promoting your work! Do you not get that? I don't need you to erase anything. Just stop doing it. 2. You and I have discussed this which is why it's annoying for me... if you want to do your own thing, great! More flavors are good for this forum. Skip dropped out, for now, so it's just me and Naples (doing season roms) and there is room for more. But, did you ever notice that those two and I are different in our approach? Please stop borrowing from me. You don't need to as you are clearly talented enough to do the work. I don't understand why folks do this. It's not flattering. Be an original. People will respect you (even) more for being one. You are an intelligent guy and so far, have been helping the community. You don't need my work as inspiration. There are no explanations needed. Do your own thing, in your own forum thread. Be original and best wishes for it!
