I always had pretty strong faceoff numbers when I played sober and used to talk to Plabax about similar things we noticed a lot depended on WHERE the face off was and when it was much more than WHOM was in the faceoff. We both agreed than in certain positions, pulling back worked more times than sideways, etc. I never spent long hours analyzing data, but I definitely knew if against the boards, pulling to back and towards the goalie won more faceoffs than anything. Also, felt like PAPER/ ROCK / SCISSORS to me, in that what your opponent which direction your opponent was going for would alter what worked best for you. I swear, vs some guys who I knew always pulled back, or always pulled to the right, I'd win a much higher faceoff than guys who mixed it up.

Look what the cat dragged in....

Rob Blake & Kevin Hatcher both #4. I'll check the rest of my #'s as soon as I can. Everyone else, please review your own team.

ROSTERS are locked.

Trade deadline high noon tomorrow central time.

Minus any pending trades before noon tomorrow, we got ourselves a finished draft & set lines. Nice job everyone. thanks to chaos & Raph from here going forward for their work on site/rom. all that’s left is any trade(s) & duplicate numbers , checking final rom for errors

Yeah, I am pretty sure between Trojan, AJ & myself, a weekly lead in wouldn't be too hard to drum up. Again, worse case would be every other week if activity was low, imo. Still good to start something like this, and let the ball start to roll where it rolls.

Streaming on Retro I highly doubt puts any strain on NHL94. We can easily test it, as I have a twitch account, and can stream exi's w/ & w/out it to see if it effects quality. And, Game of Thrones is over. Stanley Cup is almost done. Football is months away and baseball sucks these days, and that leaves Sunday nights free for most of you nerds for sure! Especially, if we make it Game Night. More likely to make yourself available. AT WORSE, we record our games or krecs and get them to AJ/Trojan to convert to a video stream that they can run/comment on Sunday night, and then we upload the results, so it's like a TAPE DELAY.

Brutus DROPS F Gaetan Duchesne & ADDS G Andre Racicot.

TRADE DEADLINE: Wednesday HIGH noon, 12 pm central tomorrow After that ROSTERS locked to get the ROM & League setup on time to start at the beginning of June.

Yeah, and the first guy to come in off the bench after him is...in this case, Linden. So, Laffy subs in for Sundin or Carson in penalty/injury, and Linden subs in after that. That's my understanding of how we set the lines, unless you specify you want it differently.

If you weren't mentioned in the @, it's cause I couldn't get your forum handle to work, lol

Following up on a post by Trojan, I think we can all work to add some extra flair to summer league. I'm thinking Sunday night, some time between 8-10 pm central, having a game of the week, where one or 2 games are streamed with commentary by guys like AJ/Ice/Trojan arranged as well. Pretty sure if I stream the game and say AJ/Trojan are in a party mode setup where their stream is linked, they can stream the game with commentary. I think leading up the game while it's getting setup, could discuss current league standings/stats &&& NHL94 stuff coming up, etc, like a 5-10 minute lead in at most. One or two games being streamed on a set time, means total time would be in the range of 30 minutes available on a weekly basis. Thoughts? @MikeGartner22 @jackandjose @dcicon5148 @kingraph @kylewat @corbettkb @jer_33 @LeifErikson @Edge of 94' WI @angryjay93 @IceStorm70 @chaos @aqualizard

YES, maybe a set night/time, we stream a few games on twitch or something and have live commentary, plus weekly review discussion would be nice too. Wrong thread for this, so I'll post something to follow up with.

Schmidt trades Luc to Tex for Russ, confirmed in a wrong thread that I deleted.
