    Maybe Halifax could answer better, but I would say.. it's like a bell curve, so a lot of the B guys are relatively close? ALthough I think we did do a D league in the past at some point. But like the bottom few "B" guys and top few "C" guys are going to be basically the same skill level (whereas A vs B is usually fairly clear-cut except 1 or 2 guys).

    PS I checked just now and there will be a B-West champ vs B-East champ final series.

    yeah, i agree separating all of them could be tough at this point. However, maybe after a full season has been played, we could.

    Separate. Cuts down on the number of people you need to play against, so you play more games vs each person rather than 1 or 2 against a lot of people. Easier to get people to finish their schedule.

    Alright, cool. what's the thinking on doing it this way instead of trying to separate by skill and having A-B-C-D?

     

  8. Creating a ROM, attributes, with players from different eras

    in Player Ratings

    Posted

    I'm very interested in making an all-time greats ROM, if it's not too much work. I'm very well versed in all of the top 1000+ players of all-time,  and wouldn't have much trouble building up all their attributes compared to eachother. I've read up a lot on what aspects of the game the attributes drive. But still, I don't know where to start.  Here are my questions:

    1. Could I do this using the recent mod that contains 32 teams, aggressiveness pinned down and the weight big fixed? I feel like that's an improvement even if it's not used in official league play.

    2 . Should I just create a starting lineup or do a full roster for each team? Would it be a waste of time if no one even plays with line changes anymore?

    3. Do I need to have programming knowledge? Or is there some sort of ROM editing app that makes this easy? I remember back in 2002-04 I used to use something called Blommann's NHL editor to tweak player ratings

    4. Would anyone actually be interested in this or would it just be a vanity project for a historian?

  9. Fall'19 GENS Team Selection Draft

    I will select Detroit Red Wings.

    Originally the Cougars from 1926-1930, and the Falcons from 1930-1932, they began as the NHL rehash of the WHL's Victoria Cougars, Winners of the 1925 Stanley Cup FInals (and losers of the 1926 series). They took on the name Red Wings after the Notorious James Norris purchased the franchise. They won 7 stanley cups between 1937 and 1956, and four more in the past 13 years.... none between 1956 and 1996, though.

    Detroit has had many illustrious players in their long history, most notable among them Gordie Howe, arguably the greatest player of all-time. Niklas Lidstrom, an outstanding two-way defenseman, and Steve Yzerman, a superlative two- way forward are two others. But not to be forgotten are sixteen other current or future members of the HHOF whose best years were spent in Detroit: Terry Sawchuk, Ted Lindsay, Red Kelly, Sergei Fedorov, Alex Delvecchio, Sid Abel, Pavel Datsyuk, Marcel Pronovost, Ebbie Goodfellow, Henrik Zetterberg, Norm Ullman, Jack Stewart, Syd Howe, Brendan Shanahan, Bill Quackenbush, and Herbie Lewis.

    The only seasons in franchise history that one of these all-time greats did not suit up for Detroit, were their first two, the last two, and the nine seasons from 74-75 through 82-83, 13 total seasons in which they earned just one playoff berth. Hey, it's almost like having good players helps ya win!
