  1. What to do when being held

    Look to pass it off. Most of the time you will lose the puck if you hope to break free but getting a pass off before you get knocked down is a good way to salvage the situation.

    Alright advanced tactics:

    When being held you can also spam check whos holding you to knock em down and keep going. IM sure player weight and checking is the factor as to whether this will be successful or not. You can anticipate the grab and ram them over right before/as being grabbed without the puck.

    Now for the real tactic: If you swing the momentum of your player in the exact OPPOSITE direction a hit is coming from, on the moment of contact ,you can do a little bounce off the player and negate the hit. I especially used to do this with light players vs heavy.

    and people be wondering why their players cant hit xD

  2. Shaftman who cares if the cup is in Canada or not. I'll never understand that kind of patriotism. Like people who will cheer for freaking disgusting habs just to see the cup be back in Canada, craziness.

    Cheer for your own team, and if you wanna watch the lame playoffs and they don't make it then just watch for fun.

    <<< born and raised in MTL. Also happens to be Canada's last cup winning team and probable next. 24CH PATRIOTISM NEW FORUM AVATAR just for you coming up!

    technically now: WIth so many Canadian players winning it over the years the cup never really left home.

    However there is a Canada - U.S.A Rivalry and even more so a Rivalry between Canadian Cities to who will "restore cup glory" for Canada.

  3. so much talk about the laffs :eyes_droped:

    Kessel is the kinda guy that only thinks about hockey when he PLAYS hockey. Off the ice, he doesn't want to know it. This translates directly to his game. Streaky player. Doesn't mean he isn't great though.

    Did the preds just get scarier or what?

    Now lets talk about Canada's only hope for our cup...

    Can Bergevin pull out a blockbuster? i really hope so...and i really hope with Edmonton.

    Both teams can benefit greatly from a hockey deal. Sadly looks like Tinordi hasn't been given a shot in MTL might be on the move...

    habs are deep in tradable assets...and no cap space to breath (ag27 still unsigned)

    this week is gonna be huge. the biggest deals happen before the deadline..

  4. wow cool find.

    I hate EA. I found for the last decade they completely rip off the consumer making us buy a new game every year for essentially just roster updates. (which you can just download now!)

    Sure they always tout new features and things but its all marketing crap. Any year they made a really good game instead of keeping with it and fixing bugs and refining it they just A) copy paste code + roster updates or B) make some completely new bs game new features, new game play, new bugs its just bs. graphics hardly get 'better' anymore.

    Why not release a grade A+ title every COUPLE of years or so, and manage it with DLC

    NO THEY HAVE TO ROB US OF 60-80$ EVERY YEAR for inferior products!

    ANYWAY

    why all this rant?

    Well for me the early 90's were the golden days of EA. Sports games were new. They had to figure it out. 92' 93' were good and fun and they made a classic in 94.

    but nope.

    nope nope nope. same bs as today as ever was with EA.

    they had a cool FUNCTIONAL feature that disappeared for a flapping pixalated Ronn Barr screen we cant skip fast enough??

    The list goes on and on with things like this through every EA nhl title of the last 20 years as im sure most of you experienced first hand.

    why do we keep giving them our money??

    /end rant
