I have another idea for a Story-Mode Vancouver that would start from a save-state 3-1 Rangers series lead - to see if the Canucks could finish them off. (Could go back to the opening round vs Calgary in a 3-1 hole to start as well).

I've set the rom up for game 1(Visitor @ PHI) - you'd have to select your home games for the rest.

Version history: v1 (changed playoff bracket, changed main menu) Things to change in future versions: Splash Screen Scoreboard? Weight-Bug Fix? Rosters (to better reflect the actual team)? Rom versions: NHL94-StoryMode(FLA-v.1).bin

Been thinking about this for a while, and wondered if there would be any interest in it? The premise is to make a special "Story Mode" rom to be played solo. The rom would be upgraded in order to play out the story. My first edition (again, if there is interest) would be the 1993-94 Florida Panthers edition. The Panthers were 2 pts out of a play-off spot in their expansion year, which sounds great for an expansion franchise - but they were in a play-off race with the Islanders until the final days of the season. An 8 game winless streak killed their chances at a play-off berth. In Story Mode, a player would try to win-out the final 4 games of the season (@PHI, vsNJ, vsQUE, vsNYI) and progress into a playoff bracket where they would face the Rangers in the first round. If you like the idea - or better yet decide to give it a go - post your thoughts or results in this thread.

You've got great splash screens Coach, each one unique and really well done.

Love ya Coach. I wasn't thinking about the pause so much as I might be cutting the music short to get back to the face-off after a goal, because I can't tell when the music ends. As for actual time-outs - I am of the camp that believes a time-out actually resets momentum in a game. If I've just had 2 or 3 goals scored on me in quick succession - I know that for the rest of the period, my guys will be running around full fire-alarm, and that winning a face-off will become an impossible feat. A timeout (beyond giving the coach a reset) more often than not can give you the next face-off, and an opportunity to hold onto the puck for a bit. If I can say anything about changing player numbers - it's that there should be a hard/fast rule, no negotiating. In fact, maybe there should be a way to show that a common player has had his number changed in game. It would be cool if you could add a star, or an x to the players number on screen. s**t, could you ditch numbers for initials - or 3-4 letter acronyms? (Not asking for these roms to be changed, just wondering if it is possible). Great stuff coach.

If I've cut the music short during any online games, it's probably because I have the sound turned off. I like to play to my own music, no offence to those that work so hard changing it. Truth be told, goals could be signalled by fart noises, and the crowd could be chanting "go Coach go", and I wouldn't know it.

Have a look at an Everdrive: https://krikzz.com/store/home/13-super-everdrive-v2.html and have as many custom NHL94 roms as you'd like. Not to mention any other SNES roms you might own.

Playoff games/highlights with Brutus/Coach in the booth.

How hard would it be to just do a port of the updated Sega ratings for the SNES?

Did you know that the worst player in the NHL94 rom (Greg Smyth) had an unusual nickname? http://www.greatesthockeylegends.com/2015/06/greg-smyth.html

Tex also leads the way in the 500 loss club... or is that a thing?

Today I learned that I have a winning record in OT games!
