I took a shot at the "B" odds. Much less predictable, and you'll see the odds are much closer between everyone. I'm sure I will get burned on some of this. I also linked each team to Robbie's write-up. TOR da94wookiee +450 -- "A" level classic coach should crush opponents with Messier and Kasatonov. STL Iceguy94 +450 -- Mogilny in the hands of a skilled coach. Look out. NJ mcarthurbsu33 +500 -- Bondra, Fedorov, Kamensky will LIGHT IT UP. QUE kupuckNHL94 +550 -- Kupuck will have to use his experience to make the most of of this team. TB Sicarius Fulgur +550 -- I predict Gary Roberts will be in the top 3 scoring (in "B") in the regular season. WPG eggink444 +600 -- Speed & size, with a great goalie. This team can beat you in many ways and will be dangerous all season. HFD maverickz161 +650 -- Another mystery here. If Mav stays focused, Roy, Robitaille and Steve Smith will take him to the promise land. WSH gretzkyonacold +700 -- Our favorite Blitz corresponant should make the playoffs with this well-balanced team. OTT PRoBob388 +700 -- Kevin Stevens and Dave Manson anchor what should be a high hitting team. Lead the B league in GAA? CGY Rage93 +700 -- Can the monster that is Ray Bourque turn around the Calgary Flames '06 season? I've never played the coach before. EDM minpind +850 -- Firepower upfront, with Potvin in net for the Blitz newcomer. Darkhorse to go deep. BOS Pearate +1000 -- Not sure that Jagr & Co. will be enough for Pearate to conquer the B league. Place your bets!

It was a great series, the Senators definitely didn't play like a #8 seed. Karlsson, Spezza, and of course Anderson were all very impressive to watch.

Nice job in such a short time! My initial thoughts -- I'd give some better odds to the defending champ and #1 Blitz player based on IIHF rankings. And Carse -- from Blitz 02-06, he won 2 and 4, finals in 3&6. Oh, who did he lose to in seasons 3,5&6? Frey, Frey, and Frey. So, my $1,000 bet will be: $1,000 on DAL - KingRaph (+600) -- YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAH!

If you downloaded the nhl12playoffs.bin from the link that da94wookie posted, the hack is already incorporated into the bin file, so there's nothing to do except play!

I forgot to mention that that particular ROM has a goalie-button hack, so if you have a 6-button controller, you can use the "Y" button to automatically switch to the goaltender, instead of holding down "B" for a few seconds.

YES...will you take a stab? or HABS? I can also take a shot if nobody else does.

It looks like a 2+ hour drive for me from Jersey...depends on the time/length of the tourney, but I may be able to swing that. Keep us informed!

C'mon now Mav, Oilers442 is one of the classiest people in the '94 community.

I'll be happy to join as a replacement player as my classic/survivor leagues are winding down, and dynasty appears to be imaginary at this point. My initial fear was overcommitment, but I really shouldn't have a problem getting games in. Just let me know Dan.

As usual, your comment is unconstructive and useless. You hate Genesis with a maniacal passion. We get it. Your point has been made to nauseating levels. Can we please move on and let Bo create a useful forum for discussing the various differences between the two systems?

Lol, I know. The first post is over 4 years old and I just wanted to prompt people with the bump post who may not have gone back to the first.

Would be nice to pull your name and have your overall record against every opponent you've ever played. Then if you wanted to see more detail, select the opponent. Very cool regardless, thanks for the update!

Just read this thread, which all happened before my time. So awesome of Evan to make this attempt to contact EA. It's something I've been wondering about recently. I guess nothing came from it, but it's great to read how some of these wishlist hacks have happened over the last few years (stat extraction, goalie control, weight bug fix, etc.). You guys all rock!

bump Mark Lesser interview where he says, " I was flabbergasted to discover a website of devoted followers of NHL '94 which includes software emulation of the game and tournaments and chat rooms going strong after more than a decade."

Love this idea for a thread. I played a bunch of SNES exhibs before classic and here are some things that took getting used to that I can remember from the top of my head. * Goalie movement and control are very different. The SNES goalie sort of hovers around. It's an important part of the game that I could not get used to...though I didn't play a ton. * The slapshot is a low percentage play. * no pass shot, lol.

Awesome interview! Nice to read from the perspective of the main man himself. I never knew that Mark Lesser posted on the forums!

Settle down, settle down. Thursday, Game 7. Rangers will put it away. Oh, and Neil kicked it in that 2nd goal. C'mon now... Oh yea, and Neil is a douche. C'mon now.

Welcome! Yes, the leagues "A", "B", & "C" represent different skill levels. A - Advanced, B - Intermediate, C - Novice/Beginner. I suggest signing up for AIM and letting us know your AIM screen name. Leagues are great, but in the meantime, you can play some exhibition games to get yourself set up and started! Good luck, hope to see you around.

Awesome story, and another live tourney victory for wookie! Great job representing '94 out there. Glad to hear everyone was so nice (esp for Philly ). EA being one of the sponsor's piqued my interest -- gotta get that live tourney in New York ball rolling again. Charity fundraiser is a great idea.

politelyerased should be added too...as far as I know he always plays 2v2 when he's online.

Congratulations! Sweet trophy , too bad it says Flyers Faithful, lol.

kingraph You should've had me on there by default dude, lol.

Played Dcicon, ggs. Zalex and Beavers left. I'm glad to finish up the season next week if I can catch you guys.
