If you're interested, the '91 and '92 editions of my World Championships series are based on NHL Hockey.
Fun, I'll give them a try

Just curious to know if anyone has edited either of those ROMs.

I should clarify that I do know a cheesy way to score from NHL 96 onwards: skate into the zone at the corner points
with a shooter whose handedness matches the point (i.e. left-handed shooter in the left point, right-handed shooter in the right point)(after more experimenting it looks like backhanders work too) and take a slapshot aimed for the lower near corner of the goal. This works really well going downwards, and the goalie AI always seems to have a hard time with it. Going upwards it works less well but it still can do the trick. You want the shot to be off within the first two, maybe three segments of the wall. The more accurate and harder the shot, the better, but some goalies have a hard time with even slow backhanders! -

Heh. When you find a technique, let me know too eh? I usually play great defence in any game I pick up, but post '95, figuring out scoring is not my strength. As evidenced by the final test match I played where I out shot my opponent 38-4 and won 2-1. [Both were one-timers if that helps]
LOL, okay, good to know that offense is not the easiest to come by!

I usually only play '94, but I'm trying out some of these newer editions. I'm finding it hard to score goals in, for example, the IIHF 99 ROM. Does anyone have any gameplay videos or just goal-scoring tips?

EA has pretty much given up on Nintendo in case you didn't notice. You go to EA's "library" page for the Switch and they list eleven games: four are the awful FIFA games they ported from two generations ago, and two are remakes of older games (Burnout and Need For Speed). Kind of ridiculous considering how well the Switch has sold but they know where they make their money and they want to exploit that.

This is a different type of "fake shot" but repeatable. You can actually take a weak shot aiming down and away and catch it.
That's a pretty slick move!

Bump for new rom upload, v1.1 with updated rosters, ratings, and a new title screen.
As a Penguins fan, I am troubled by the omission of Pierre-Olivier Joseph (Zach Trotman can be dumped), and it's Zach Aston-Reese, not Auston-Reese. Two little nits I'm picking for what is otherwise a great ROM!
-
Every once in a while when I'm playing, I will unintentionally start to take a shot but I can seemingly cancel it out by pressing the B (pass) button quickly, and I'll get a sound like a piece of paper being ripped quickly (hard to describe). Has anyone else experienced that?

UPDATE: The Reverse Retro Jersey project has been scrapped.
Boooooo, why?

Thanks for the bonk on the head! I've never been very good at playing online, but I'm still very much alive regardless!

You mean for the team that has no players, no draftees and won't start play until 2021-22?
Exactly!

Looks like the ROM makers will have to get KRAKEN on the logo and colors!

if you guys are still having trouble with in-game season saving - have you tried using the emulator save-state saving? To simulate never turning the game off
The game automatically tries to save after you complete a three-game series, and that's when it hangs, regardless of what you choose. At least, that's been my experience!

I'll have an update coming soon and will attach here! I want to go through a couple of weeks so I can update the advantages for home, away, PP, PK, etc.
Looking forward to 99OVR Sam Lafferty and Adam Johnson for the Penguins!

NHL '94 wishes it was as deep and editable as SWOS!
That being said, what is so new and up-to-date about this version of SWOS? Looking at the rosters, are they just using the best single-season lineups of all-time?
-
It's probably the emulator then, no worries.
-
I went to play this ROM in OpenEmu (Mac emulator) and all of the players' names are blank! Is it also not playable in season mode?
-
I would love to see this, but every time I go to play a season in Sports Talk Baseball it fails to get past the first save point.

Besides NHL '94, '96 is probably my second-favorite 16-bit generation NHL games (that sounded too specific)
-
I wonder if there's a way to prevent the puck from going out of play at all? Just for fun...
