McMarkis

A lot of first round sweeps so far. Of the first 13 series completed(all leagues)...there were 8 sweeps.
Think the first round will finish with atleast 50% of the teams swept?

sounds great to me. one problem with this league is that too many teams make the playoffs, and regular season games don't count as much because you're not fighting for a spot in the playoffs.
that's true...but the regular season WILL mean something because you are fighting for a spot in the 'A" playoffs (which is tougher to do since only half the teams make it)....Like I say....this is just a fun league and has no bearing for this website (like year end awards they hand out at the end of playoffs..etc.) I just thought this would be a good way to have a league...have everyone play everyone the same amount of times (one home, one away)..and the best 8 players will play in the 'A" playoffs...and the rest will play in the 'B"...So the weaker players can play the top notch players during the regular season and try to improve their game and still enjoy a chance at a run in the playoffs.

Game 5: Some quick goals and the score was quickly in Buffalo's favor (3-1) after the first and Lafontaine already had his third hat trick of the series. The game stayed within 2 goals the entire time, but down 5-3 late toronto took a penalty which sealed the deal. A shorthanded goal with 3 seconds left didn't leave much hope.
Buffalo takes the series 4-1
I would just like to thank my opponent Mattman for a great series. We each won one game easily and the other 3 were all close (2 in ot). Class act definately hope to be playing you again next year (and hopefully potvin shows up in the playoffs).
congrats pimp!

I'll make the cut off at 16 teams....4 spots remaining....If i get 16 teams...since this is just a fun league...i'd like to run a 30 game league(play each team twice)...after the regular season is complete..the top 8 will play in the 'A' playoffs...and the bottom 8 will play in a 'B" playoffs..
.its a little different from this site..but it gives everyone a chance to play in the playoffs....with less chance of mismatches in the opening round of the playoffs....sound okay?
-
I'm in assuming it won't conflict with anything going on here already. It'll give me some good practice against some A guys for next season.
Pimp and Capermattman....ill add you to the top!
Pimp: not to worry.. I won't start it until these playoffs are done. Unless all of you guys say otherwise. But I wanted to get the word out now to get things set up.
Thanks guys!

Halifax, sorry for the oversight. That is for the SEGA GENESIS. I never tried it with the SNES. By the way, anyone out there who does in fact accomplish this, please take a picture of the STATS page at the end of the game to prove it. Thanks!
i'm a SNES player...If i remember correctly...the 93 version was a much better game for genesis then SNES...there were more ways to score....SNES had the'crease cut' goal and a few places you could shoot from but other then that it was a weak game...
as for the 94 version..I've liked the SNES version better then genesis. I've felt like I have more control over what I want my players and goalie to do when I want them to do it.

Hey guys, I am new to this site (94 NHL) and it is sweet. I am looking forward to playing in the Spring. However, my favorite NHL game is 93 NHLPA. Why? Well, I could go on and on with my reasons. It is just an amazing game. 13 years on and I am still discovering new goals and interesting angles (glitches etc..). My brother and I have logged over 10,000 games and came up with an interesting challenge about 10 years ago. The goal is -> 1) pick OTTAWA as you team. 2) set the period length to 5 minutes 3) Make sure that OFFSIDES is on and fighting is on but NO LINE CHANGES 4) PICK MONTREAL in the PLAYOFF FORMAT to play against 5) Now you're ready for the challenge. You must get 100 penalties AND WIN THE GAME. The easiest way to rack up the penalties is with interference with the goaltender. However, you will need to be way more creative than just that as you need 100 penalties AND you must win the game. Basically, you need to have GREAT defensive skills as OTTAWA is not rated high at all on defense. But, THAT'S THE GREAT CHALLENGE! Now, it is NEAR IMPOSSIBLE to accomplish this feat playing with 1 player. So, I suggest you try it with the TEAMATE format. Plus, it's much more fun this way. Because when you get to 99 penalties and your buddy screws it up letting DENIS SAVARD blow right by him you will want to kill him, believe me. So, good luck trying to accomplish this challenge, YOU'LL NEED IT!
Also, through studying the game it is possible to have 0 skaters on the ice for your team through racking up so many penalties!!! Wow, I think I've played this game too much.
Is that for genesis or SNES?
-
thanks for the comments fellas....for sure I wanna play in the SNES league next season....hopefully there will be enough guys who can commit to keep the 'A' and the 'B' league going.
-
where is the site>? I will join.....Rockyrmjc22@aol.com and aim.
Montreal is my 1 picky then nj 2 then 3 pitts
I haven't set up any site actually...I had thought about just doing up a spreadsheet on my own and doing it that way....but I will look for a site that has a service to set up a league.(if anyone knows of any, please let me know)
and i've added you to the list..thanks rocky
-
lol...that was great!
-
You got me as well. How do I sign up?
I'll add you in the top post..thanks
-
Yes it's true I now have Washington.
and perhaps this is misinterpreted....cause it seems like you were happy to get rid of pittsburgh and take washington and not doing it for the sake of being nice for others.
-
kgboy and John switched teams.
kgboy = Pittsburgh
John = Washington
and then you switched teams with kgboy....you got washington...and kgboy got pittsburgh...
and then kgboy uses to pittsburgh to eliminate you in the first round of the playoffs...that's where we see the irony
like i say..if i made a mistake assuming all this info to be correct....i apologize...but I think that was pimp's point
-
I switched to Pittsburgh. That's insane they were still available.
Thanks Evan. NJ was just so awful in the pre-trial runs.
I assume you were formerly known as crossbar...you had new jersey and then switched to pittsburgh...
-
It'd be ironic if I switched because I felt Washington was better. But since I didn't, it's not ironic at all.
I expected to have a tough road with Washington, and I did.
i'm sorry puffchuggo but here's how I see the irony...and correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not sure how to post all quotes in the same reply so ill do them separately)

Good job as well on giving props to the guys that have helped you out
-
First off I would just like to say i had a blast playing in this league. Even though Toronto wasnt a team that fit my strengths, i still had a blast competing with all the guys in the league this season. I wouldn't have been as successful as i was if it werent for some people helping me along the way.
First and foremost id like to thank Evan. He allowed me to move into the A league despite my limited experience and ability. He had the confidence in me that i would get all my games in and hopefully be competitive. I will totally understand if i get sent down to B next season so i can pay my dues like everyone else trying to move up. I just want to thank you for giving me the chance though, i had a blast.
Next id like to thank the guys who helped me get into this league. MattHurray played a large role in gettting me into this league, he vouched for me saying i could compete and he helped me so much with my defense and learning how to play a better game.
Id also like to thank addisonbr. He played the very first game with me and handed my ass to me, but he did give me the desire to continue working on my game so i could hopefully compete one day. Also he supported my bid to get into the league and he continues to play games with me on a regular basis where we can work on our skills. Without him i wouldnt be the player i am right now.
Id like to thank James/vocally caged, playing him gave me confidence i could hang with the big boys and not get slapped around. He is a great player who really made me elevate my play to another level that i wasnt aware that i possessed. There is a massive amount of mutual respect between us and id like to think we will have some epic battles in the future.
Also backhander needs to get his due. He took detroit and whooped me time and time again at my request. He challenged me on a level that im not ready for yet, but hopefully with some more improvement i can play on his level consistently.
Setar needs major props. He took the time to record,commentate, and process the videos of games 1-4 of my playoff series. He does an amazing job when he can be heard and i appreciate everything he has done.
Lastly, i want to thank hokkefan for one hell of a series. Im dissapointed with the end result, but as ive sad a few times already, ive never seen so much suspense or had so much fun playing a video game. i now consider you a major rival and i will make sure i always bring a little extra when playing with you, but its all good natured of course.
As for anyone i have forgotten, here is my thanks for you in making me a better player and providing an enjoyable experience.
No matter what league im in next season,i look forward to more fun.

feel free to put them down at any time.....ultimately im gonna have to ask coaches for a bigger list (preferably your top 15 choices...)....so it will make it easier when i get to assigning teams to the bottom 4 or 5 coaches in the draft as there is a high probability their first few choices will already be taken from other coaches earlier in the draft.
