kingraph Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Thanks to @Puck Junk, here's a page from Igor Kuperman's original ratings for the Blackhawks. Interesting that Shot Accuracy isn't specifically listed there, but we know that was a direct link to shooting percentage. I also notice that offensive awareness isn't there (was that also based on a stat?) and fighting is there, futher proving this was originally in the game and taken out at the end. Here's his Tweet: 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachMac Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 How much can I LOVE this! Handwritten notes!!! Super Cool, Thanks for posting. Offensive Awareness is based on Season Point Totals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angryjay93 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) A lot of these ratings look very close to what they are in the game except for Michel Goulet. His passing is listed at a 4 but in the actual game it's only a 1. Could have been a typo? Also his shot power is written as 3 but it's a 2 in game. Lastly, his stick handling is 4 on the sheet but 3 in game. Not sure if the last two are a typo or late adjustments. I could spend hours looking at these things Edited May 6, 2019 by angryjay93 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smozoma Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Goulet would have a respectable 1st liner with those original stats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTup710 Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 This is awesome! Never seen anything like this before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Kudelski Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Poor Goulet. The guy had six straight seasons of at least 48 goals. Even in the high scoring 80's, that's pretty amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clockwise Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 This is cool. I'd like to see some more of these. I have a NHL Super-Series guide from 90-91 (it's like Zangeif vs Guile) and he wrote it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could spend hours looking at these things I think it must have been a typo, or changed by developers to lessen Chicago’s strength. Interesting fact, in the EA 93 version one year before he was ranked an 83 overall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent a nice email to three different addresses I had found online for him. Heard nothing back. I was hoping he would be willing and able to share more of his original notes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
