It's so floaty. They made it fast, yes, but the players and the puck have no sense of weight. I played it for the full seasons and stat tracking but I gave up in the playoffs. In my postseason there was a glitch where I had home ice in every game.

Thanks for the shoutout bud. Don't be a stranger.

Nice article. Thanks for sharing. Two things I loved: they made the game in less than 6 months and we're still playing it in 2016. Also that he brings out NHL '94 in his classes! I would have studied more if that was on the agenda.

Who are we waiting for? We need to move this along, come on boys.

My team seems to be good to go. Thanks bud!

I realized both MacInnis and Leetch are #2 on Houston. Whenever you do the next edit you can switch Leetch to 22 (he wore this in Boston). Any news from pondhcky or jonee on finalizing their lines?

Actually I have Lindros, not him, but he has Super Mario so it's hardly a downgrade lol.

I love that people are even entertaining the idea of going to practically the Arctic to play some 94.

I've been planning ahead but I never figured on investing much in a goalie. We will see this season if that causes me problems. God knows I give up enough scoring chances. Irbe was one of my favourite goalies as a kid though. I think with the auction draft format and some teams folding etc there can be a bit more of an imbalance in the rosters. Brutus definitely knew what he was doing though. After playing a bit with c4's test rom I am pretty confident my team is going to be fun to use this year.

Make it summer and I'm not ruling anything out! Good chance I'm heading out west at some point this year. Who knows maybe I could make a NWT detour.

It's still line changes off. And there are no penalties so the second line is really just for injuries or subs. So makes sense to stack your first line as much as possible.

Congrats Bob you deserve it!

Keep us posted boys, I'm already regretting not being there!

I just hope Leclair is good enough this year but I really want him in over Hull. It's gonna be fun.

Team: Houston Aeros First Line G - Artus Irbe LD - Scott Stevens RD - Al MacInnis LW - John Leclair C - Eric Lindros RW - Mikael Renberg X - Brett Hull (extra attacker when goalie pulled) Second Line G - Kirk McLean LD - Brian Leetch RD - Mark Tinordi LW - Sergei Makarov C - Craig Janney RW - Brett Hull X - Eric Lindros (extra attacker when goalie pulled)

You inherited a stacked team but but I laughed when I saw you got Richter... your favourite lol. I don't think we are doing trades in this league but if you're missing a backup goalie you can always pick up someone cheap and play them instead. I'm going the cheap goalie route this year and I don't think it's going to be a big issue.

Thanks bud nice to hear the kind words Mikail and I think everyone is happy you signed up, we always need fresh faces and people who can play! I'm looking forward to some more games in Dynasty and next time Classic gets going, not to mention a live rematch at some point in the future... As for your issue with the input lag, that sounds fishy given that you weren't having that problem earlier in the year. It may be a particular problem with that person you were playing. I don't know if latency settings would help but someone else might have more ideas. We can definitely get some practice games going next time you're on and see if everything is smooth.

ggs dex, you definitely adapted and shut it down. I had a bunch of chances to seal the deal and didn't. Kudos bud and good luck against JV!

This is my fault but we are trying to set games up for tomorrow. I'm available all day from early afternoon. Sorry about the delay boys.

I haven't been online much with the holidays. We are going to play either tonight or this weekend latest.

Yup for sure. Tyler has put in a bid anyway and I think you can assign a backup to Mikail if he doesn't. The guy already inherited a sick team.

Hopefully guys can get bids in but it's the holidays so likely people are just busy. I wouldn't want to see teams folded unless absolutely necessary, Tyler and Mikail are good buds.

Thanks bud. Fortunately you have a chance to take one of those off me in the next few weeks! This was my redemption for a first round exit last classic with LA when I thought I had the team to beat. It was a great season overall with 100% games played and I hope we can keep that momentum going.

Dex, I'm pretty free today, Monday and Tuesday. I'm with my family and won't be on AIM much but we can schedule something. PM me with availabilities?

The games are up for A league. Just had to say thanks to angryjay, and everyone always says this but this was really one of those series where the scoreline doesn't tell the full story. He had literally no bounces and this could have and probably should have gone 6 or 7 games. The games aside, you are a super bud and generally one of the best ambassadors of the game so it's always a pleasure to face off with you. Good games and merry Christmas and see you next time.
