  1. Less than a week to go. This thread has been kinda quiet. Hope there is a good turn out at the show. Look forward to meeting everyone who attends.
  2. I gotcha Just was throwing it out there Regardless I'm looking forward to the show and the tournament
  3. That's good to hear that there won't be a cap. Just curious has any thought been given to a SNES tournament as well? Is it possible and or enough people interested / attending?
  4. I live out on Long Island and will be attending the expo this year. Is there any way I can preregister a spot for the nhl 94 tournament? I would really like to participate in it. Thanks
  5. Kind of ironic that right after Black Elmo gets traded to the Penguins you make a post on this topic. Meanwhile I posted last on August 12 2012. lol
  6. Before anything takes place the fate of the Coyotes must be taken care of. Sounds like they going to Quebec. Only then will they figure out for sure the new realignment. Bettman wants 4 divisions. 2 of 8 and 2 of 7. That is what is going on. As far rumors im shocked no one mentioned the rumor of Red Wings coming to a eastern division. Hows that for a big shakeup in the East? BTW the Islanders aren't going anywhere!
  7. I would like to see the players numbers underneath them during game play and also I think your players ratings might be a tad high. Other than that I like the rom.
  8. Kewl rom. Thanks for sharing with us all!
  9. Yes I just came across it. It doesn't look like it is used and nothing is linked with it.
  10. Just a idea. How bout a forum for users who have hockey related items for sale and or trade. Anything hockey related- video games, jerseys, cards, equipment, etc.
  11. Just curious- Has anyone thought of linking NHL94.com and the forums to a Facebook page? I think it would be a great idea. What do you all think?
  12. Tim Thomas wins one cup and everyone is on his bandwagon as one of greats??? I'll take Cheevers over him! lmao
  13. Hows this for stats???- Orr's Plus/Minus numbers are from another world. His numbers are more than twice that of Gretzky's, and three times more than Lemieux's ! You have to be a student of the game to even comprehend those numbers.....Orr was on the ice for more goals per shift than any other player---ever. He was also on the ice for the fewest number of goals scored per game against his Team. How do you measure such a mind blowing stat ?
  14. When Bobby Orr was on the ice it was like the Boston Bruins were playing with a man advantage. Bobby was not a defenceman, he was spectacular. A good defender is like an extra forward and Bobby Orr was the invisible defender who played forward because he didn't have to play defence. That's what happens when you start with the puck in the back of your net, cross the blue line, cross the red line, cross their blue line and put the puck in their net. Spectacular. Bobby Orr was born on March 20, 1948, in the town of Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada. He caught the eye of a Boston Bruin scout in 1960 as a 12 year old defenseman playing in a bantam tournament. At age 14 the Bruins had already signed him to a junior contract that saw him begin play with the Oshawa Generals. Orr would go on to set a new record for points by a defenseman in the Ontario League. He played in Oshawa until he was 18, when he signed with the Bruins to play in the National Hockey League. Orr's first season saw him score 41 points, win the Calder trophy and be named as a Second Team All-Star. At the beginning of the 1971-72 season, Orr signed a contract that guaranteed him $200,000 per season over five years. It was the first $1 million deal in hockey and Orr's agent, Alan Eagleson, predicted at the time that Orr would someday own part of the team if he continued to star for Boston. As it turned out, when it came time to negotiate a new contract prior to the 1976-77 season, the Bruins did offer Orr a piece of the ownership but the star player said his agent never informed him of the proposed deal. Orr, who had struggled with his left knee and played only 10 games in 1975-76, felt as though Boston no longer wanted him and signed instead with the Chicago Black Hawks. Once considered the saviour and then the hero of the rejuvenated Bruins, Orr left the team that had been a part of his career since he was a teen in Parry Sound. Bobby Orr had an enormous impact on the game of hockey, pioneering the "mobile" or "rushing defenseman". His blazing speed, quickness, and a knack for scoring changed the face of hockey by bringing offense from the defense. Orr won the Norris Trophy as best defenseman for eight straight years, and added two Art Ross trophies for scoring titles. His first Art Ross was in 1970 as he became the only defenseman to lead the league in scoring, and he would repeat the feat in 1975. Orr also led the Boston Bruins to their first Stanley Cup in 29 years when they won the championship in 1970. The followin season saw him score 33 goals and 102 assists for 139 points, one of six seasons where the Bruin defenseman scored over 100 points. His record for goals by a defenseman stood until 1986 when Paul Coffey scored 48 goals with the 1985-86 Edmonton Oilers. Knee injuries which began soon after Bobby Orr entered the NHL forced him to miss numerous games, require several surgeries, and severely shortened his career. He underwent five knee operations between 1968 and 1975 before leaving the Bruins for the Chicago Blackhawks. But even with his bad knees, Orr was by far the best Canadian player in the 1976 Canada Cup series. At Chicago, he only played 20 games in 1976-77 and missed the entire 1977-78 season. His final NHL season was in Chicago in 1978-79 where Bobby Orr played in just 6 games before retiring at the young age of 31. Orr is still involved in hockey in his current capacity as a player agent.
