CoachMac Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 This is really cool and graphically beautiful. I love the curtains being pulled back. BUT, I just looked at Naples rom Version 1.31 in EARE AND Naples rom has all the sim data equal for all teams so the actual simulation is equivalent to flipping a coin. Everybody has a 4 for offense and defense. All PP and PK are Average and Home/Away is set to Average for all teams. I would like to see this run with the sim data accurate from the current season.

It'll still use the players, though, won't it? It just won't give customized situational bonuses. PIT won't have a super-buffed powerplay, but they'll still have great players on it (who are the players who create the good PP in the first place) Not that it wouldn't be cool to include appropriate home/away/pp/pk values Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingraph Posted April 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 You guys will see this before it hits any social media, but your 2018 Stanley Cup Champions (per NHL'94 simulation) is: The Las Vegas Golden Knights! They lose their first 3 games to the Columbus Blue Jackets, only to rally back 4 straight to win in 7! The Conn Smythe Trophy goes to Marc-Andre Fleury who posted a .942 save percentage in the playoffs, 4 shutouts, and a 1.6GAA! Again, all results, boxscores, and stats can be found here: http://www.nhl94online.com/html/playoffs.php?lg=54 Here is a GIF of the knights celebrating with the cup: Full playoff tree graphic: Finally, here are video highlights of the game 07 final! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingraph Posted April 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 Also, the '94 SIM had VGK winning their first game against LA 1-0. Actual score of game 01? 1-0. Also predicted Pittsburgh winning 4-0. Actual score? 7-0. Time to place some wagers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jer_33 Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 Great stuff Raph, you did some great work with graphics and highlights. Thanks for putting this together. You really need to dump the robo-voice and get some NHL94 buds recording the commentary of the finals series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the robo-voice, something about it made me laugh and because it was a computer simulation, seemed appropriate. However, I agree it'd be great to have '94 buds doing the commentary....would require a bit more logistics work though. I took it as a learning experience in order to try and flip a big Stanley Cup highlight into a '94 video using the audio from the game quickly and maybe have it go viral! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
