  3. Where draft went wrong/right?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I'm really happy with my team so far. I probably have the fastest team as well. Of course it helps drafting 2nd. I'm glad no one took Khmylev before me, so that I have the option of substituting a sniper if my skating isn't getting the job done.

    So, I plan on waiting till all the trading is complete, and ROM is closed to locked, and I was going to publish up a report on draft grades round by round type thing , trade analogy & overall draft grades.

    Obviously original draft position will be taken into account & a C is average, meaning done as expected. In plan to give balanced opinions not straight biased by my belief/value ratings.

    But in the mean time, HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR TEAM DO FAR??

    Key turning point?

    I personally think I f&cked the pooch when I traded Richer & Modano for Gretzky & Damphouse, but loved my Svoboda/Bourqur combination.

    I was pretty surprised that you agreed to this, after destroying me with Modano. Maybe you were channeling your inner Hokke?

  4. League with line changes and offsides?

    One thing that I would love to have in a league is a silent auction for the players. Kiba did it for his NHL 95 sim league. Each team had so many millions of dollars to spend, and makes offers to the different players that they want on their team for a few rounds. So much strategy goes into it. Do you throw huge salaries at a few players, and fill the rest of your team with pluggers? Do you throw lowball offers at a few big guys to try to grab them as a steal? It was a blast seeing some other guy bid way higher than the next highest bid, or when you got a player for bidding a dollar more the the other guy.

    Looking for a mid to late 7th rounder or early 8th rounder to get a player I looking at. I'm willing to move down in the rest of the draft.

    late 8th, early 9th and late 10th can be swapped for 7th, 11th & 12th for anyone up now.

  7. Lap top Advice

    Is this a good laptop, if I can get it for around $400(since have store credit)?

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-b50-15-6-laptop-intel-core-i5-6gb-memory-500gb-hard-drive-black/8618296.p?id=1219354106743&skuId=8618296

    I won't necessarily use it for gaming, since I have other laptops for that.

    I want Win7 Pro, and this has expandable RAM to 16GB, for Win9 in the future.

    The processor is i5 4th generation, but is it a good version?

    Most laptops are built cheap because consumers typically go for the cheapest one that they can find for a certain processor speed. However, Lenovos in general are actually pretty decent. IMO, far better than the Acers, HPs, etc...

  10. What attributes are we still unsure about?

    in General Questions & Discussion

    Posted

    Hey guys,

    I'm planning on creating a rom that we can use to test the different player attributes that we still haven't figured out if they make a difference (ie: awareness). The rom will have 99 minute periods like the playoff one, and each team will be the same except for one attribute. Hopefully, by letting the computer play itself for 300 minute games, any differences that these attributes make will show up on the scoreboard.

    I'd like to see if the awareness attributes change anything. Does anyone else have any other suggestions for me to include?

  20. Who have you met from the NHL over the years?

    in NHL Discussion

    I've met Fleury a few times. The first time was at an autograph signing at a local drugstore for whatever reason. He had a hockey school in Calgary back in the day. He didn't show up much, but I do have one memory from him being there. The instructor was going over a drill for us, and mentioned if we did it wrong, we would "fall on our ice." Fleury was standing next to me and nudges me, and asks if I got the joke. I was about 10 at the time, so we found that sort of thing funny. He used to have a charity golf tournament that I volunteered at, but he recently stopped doing it, as he said he doesn't have time for it (he literally only has to show up to play golf one day a year). I met him a few times there as well. He seems bigger in person. I'm only 5'6 as well, but he seemed a lot bigger than me.

    I was doing the check-in at the golf tournament a few years ago, and some guy that I didn't recognize came up, so I just treated him like any guy off the street. Ends up it was Jordan Eberle.

    I've also met Kevin Dahl and Trevor Kidd.

    I remember a guy in high school asked Lanny McDonald to bootleg for him, but big surprise it didn't work out.

    hope you guys kept the savestates for the site, should be up soon!

    Congrats to Pearate on the win!

    Thank you skeletor for coming in at mid-season and finishing strong with the Bruins, hope to see you back in S3!

    Of course I'll be back! I prefer playing under these rules as well. I would prefer to be in the B group, but you can stick me in A if there isn't room.
