I have a pair of screenshots to present to show that I am indeed the worst passer online. Funny how both of these games were wins for me
&
Are these close to the record for worst passing in a win?
-
My 1st win was against Setar I think. I got lucky and knocked him off in overtime as either Detroit or NY Rangers.
My 1st shutout came in the Draft League, a 2-0 Devils win over the Maple Leafs I think.
-
The new AIM sucks. I had it for one day and was utterly disgusted.
-
Mine is ScottStevensNJD4. I've opened myself to exhibitions again in hopes of getting prepared for the Spring league.
-
Yeah...I'm gonna get an NHL AIM name, once I find a program that will clone AIM and let me run 2 names at once
I do have a name set though. When I find a cloner, the NHL AIM name for me will be ScottStevensNJD4.
EDIT: Found one, I'm on that name now.

I did miss the playoffs...by a mile. In fact, if Quebec gets one point from their final 3 games, I will finish in dead last. The non-postseason teams playoff is probably only gonna be 4 teams, since I haven't seen much interest from players who aren't in.

The race to avoid the cellar seems to be over now. Despite a split with the Jets, the Devils will finish in last place on goal difference. Even though they hold the series with Quebec, it is assumed that the Nordiques will get at least one more point. On that note, here are the bottom 4 with New Jersey's season complete.
15. jj2k (EDM) 8-42-0-4, 20 points *2 games remain*
16. DaDonch44 (TB) 8-43-0-3, 19 points *2 games remain*
17. edisaurusrex (QUE) 7-41-0-5, 19 points *3 games remain*
----------------------------------------------------------------
18. Magus978 (NJ) 7-44-0-5, 19 points *Season Complete*
Quebec has goal differential working in their favor, but lost the season series to the Devils. Again, it is assumed that Quebec will take at least one point from their final 3 games, all against the Maple Leafs.

Gilmour's 50th Helps Devils to Split, But Not Out of Cellar
Well, at least it's finally over.
The Devils season ended the same way it started, with a loss. After taking a shock 4-3 OT win over the Jets at the Brendan Byrne Arena in their final home game of the year on the wings of Doug Gilmour's 50th goal of the season, they drop their finale 4-1 in Winnipeg, giving them a split of the hard-nosed Jets, and ending a season full of frustration, heartbreak, depression, and anger. The fans who were calling for coach Tom Delgado's head finally got it after the 4-1 defeat, as he announced to the media that he was leaving his dream job effective immediately.
"There has been no improvement this season. I'm extremely disappointed that I only got 7 wins out of these guys. The kind of stuff we did out on the ice all year is NOT how winning is done. With that, someone who knows how to win should be brought in. Therefore, I resign as head coach of the New Jersey Devils, effective IMMEDIATELY. You guys got what you wanted. You got the underdog out of here. I have nothing more to say about the team, the season, or anything else. Get the hell out of my way, I'm done with you people" Delgado said, angrily shoving his way out of the arena and to his car. Most Devils fans will not forget the way he celebrated the team's 1st win of the season, rushing out on the ice and demanding the game puck from the ref, then getting splashed with Gatorade...and being frozen on the bench for 3 days, with New Jersey police having to thaw him out.
Delgado's Nightmare Season Ends, Resigns Immediately After
-
I believe he's just been very busy with school or something. Not sure 100%. Also note how I'm the only one who will have to struggle for one win. No wonder some other unlucky soul will have to be the Devils next season
-
I'm not gonna be here next season, but I think this is a great idea. GM's can choose 2 players to keep, and then boom...they have their franchise players.
-
I'm not going to torture myself with anymore 9-0 beatings until I can find a place that sells controllers and doesn't charge my entire wallet for shipping, so I'm giving my notice before this season ends.
Gonna spend the time practicing for the Spring league and finishing my NHL 94 - Director's Cut hack instead. Good luck with Season 2, if you need a GM in the middle of that season, lemme know.

Tampa won another game and got another point, putting New Jersey back in the cellar. It looks like this now.

Remaining Schedules In the Great Escape
Edmonton
@ Philadelphia
@ Toronto
Tampa Bay
@ Toronto (2)
Quebec
Toronto
@ Toronto (2)
New Jersey
Winnipeg
@ Winnipeg
From looking at the remaining schedules, it looks like New Jersey has the toughest road to travel if they want any shot at making the great escape. Scribe's Jets will play extremely hard despite not having anything to play for, while takeyourpill's Flyers are playing for playoff momentum and positioning.

Chris, I should have asked you when we talk on AIM, but I need to know...
How did you change the music to the Hockey Night in Canada theme? I'm thinking of wanting to do something like that for my hack.

Me and CamKneely did a test of the online play today, and it passed after we figured out what we were doing
Penguins (CamKneely) d. NY Islanders (SSiG) 3-1
Goalscorers
Mike Bossy (NYI)
Evgeni Malkin (PIT)
Mario Lemieux (PIT, 2)
Only had 2 penalty minutes, so the action seems slick and fast paced. Not to toot my own horn, but this is the most fun I've had in a losing effort in a long time
On development notes, Columbus is going to be the next team to get done, along with some minor ratings tweaks. Some Western Conference juggernauts are next on my to-do list. Detroit, Dallas, Colorado, and San Jose are due up soon.
ETA: February 2007

We're not gonna give Dougie Gilmour some love for carrying the Devils to 6 wins?
Without him, we're going into the final games winless.
-
Gretzky only played with the Blues for like half a season. My requirement to be on a roster for non-expansion teams is 3 seasons, or one really huge season. As for expansion teams, basically anything goes as far as players are concerned.
-
Update. I'm getting help from CamKneely on ratings, so hopefully within the next week or so, the input of players will be stepped up. I'll be in Atlantic City tomorrow, so no work will be done, but when I get back into the swing of things on tuesday, I will continue to put players in and put ratings in. If you want to help, just IM me on AIM (Magus978), or send me an e-mail with the team you wanna give me ratings for.

Race to Avoid Last Place
15. edisaurusrex (QUE) 7-40-0-5, 19 points *4 games left*
16. jj2k (EDM) 7-41-0-3, 17 points *5 games left*
17. Magus978 (NJ) 6-42-0-5, 17 points *3 games left*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
18. DaDonch44 (TB) 7-43-0-2, 16 points *4 games left*
Quebec should avoid last place easily, but the dogfight to stay out of the cellar will be between Edmonton, New Jersey, and Tampa Bay. Edmonton is playing with a lot of guts lately, and New Jersey has gone to the backups, so it looks like it'll come down to the last day's worth of games for both New Jersey and Tampa Bay.
I figure one more win will secure non-last place status for either New Jersey or Tampa Bay, considering their records as of late, especially New Jersey's miserable 3rd double-digit losing streak of the season, currently at 11 *estimate*.
-
Guess that takes you out of the offseason tournament for non-postseason teams, huh Habs?
-
There is no reason to bring Graves back.... not after he killed Lemieux's wrist for the playoffs.
If that's the case, then he did what I drafted him to do
-
Isles suck, devils suck, rags suck, flyers suck, laffs suck, bruins suck, sens suck, sabres suck.
Habs win.
You suck
j/kWhere are the titles since 1995? Devils have 3, the rest don't

In the Devils' past few games, you may have noticed a few different faces out there. Yes, that's not Doug Gilmour playing center. That's veteran 2nd liner Paul Ysebaert getting a crack at the first line, along with Jari Kurri and Adam Graves. The reason? New Jersey has nothing to play for, and can't really move up. Coach Tom Delgado figures there's no reason to stretch his forward starters out any further, so he has been giving the reserve forwards more ice time in hopes of finding enough to re-draft them next season. "If I can bring Dougie back, he's coming back. The problem is with the rest of these guys. I need to see something out of Jari, Paul, and Adam to make me want to draft them again" Coach Delgado told the media after a lengthy hihatus from talking to them after games. New Jersey is currently 9th in the Wales Conference, at 6-42-0-5, good for only 17 points, and just 1 point clear of the Wales cellar, currently inhabited by Tampa Bay. "Position doesn't matter to us anymore, we know we're gonna finish at the bottom. No sense in trying to fight it, so I'm getting a look at our reserves now to see if there's any potential left for this group of guys."

well, it's basically the best 80's, 90's, and modern day players for each team, and a few of my personal picks
Hence why Doug Gilmour will be both on the Devils and Maple Leafs, and why Wayne Gretzky will be on the Oilers, Kings, and Rangers.
No 70's and earlier players allowed. This is the best and rest of the past 20 + years of NHL hockey.

You gotta be careful about what you say.
wboy has spent so much time doing NHL 94-related stuff for us hack makers. Anything that's construded into an insult his way isn't cool. I know this ain't the thread for it, but I personally would like to thank wboy for all his work on Nose and how much easier it has made my work on the Director's Cut of NHL 94! Much love to ya wboy, and to all the hack makers. We can't let these kinds of misunderstandings break out.
Some more potential records?
