All the positive impressions got me to pre-order NHL 13 today. Amazon has a $15 credit with a pre-order deal.

 

[Revenant]

Dustin Brown actually looks like Dustin Brown! Crowds are still garbage copy and paste the same 4 people though. Hoping they have every goalies individual masks, seems like something so simple.

 

[KingHenrik30]

Jersey City, land of annoying Rangers fans.

 

[Osorio]

You wish that photo was anywhere near the truth.

 

[Smiley90]

He probably had his head down and couldn't avoid the contact.

Nothing you can do in that situation. Should have been a non-call.

:lol

Finally home! Gonna see how much different/better it feels than 11, since I never played 12. Most importantly, gotta play different player types to see which one I'll pick for my Be A Pro, with the skill caps.

I have 2 seasons to go on my 25year Be A GM with Buffalo that I started recently, then I'll put NHL 11 aside for good.

Well Kreider did hit up Marty for 3 big goals in that series.

Futile.

 

[KingHenrik30]

Futile.

In the grand scheme of things probably since the Rangers lost the series, but goddamn do I love Kreider.

They'd have to pay each person that made the designs. Considering EA is too cheap to even get the correct international jerseys, there's no way they'll ever go for all the correct masks.

In the recent era the only Ranger that has/had a name was Sean Avery who has Satan. Everyone else was/is his demon minion.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

I hate the shootouts in this game, always hated them, still do, also hate how amazing the goalies can be, for better and for worst, reflexes faster than a dang cat and it's ridiculous.

Maybe you should get a friend to play as the other team's goalie like you did when you were bragging about scoring 60+ goals in one game.

 

[Cake Boss]

I seriously hope they atleast added some new faces and/or features for the create a pro stuff. If I see everyone rocking the same black guy with blonde dreadlocks Ill rip my ownhair out. It shouldnt be that hard to do since on the website their EA persona creator thing seems to have some decent deep customization.

Add a "personal" section to Be A Pro, where you can spend the money that you earn with your contract on personal stuff like cars, vacation, houses etc, which will marginally affect your morale or offseason growth or sth intangible. Add suits and clothes and shit. SIMS IT UP.

Can there be a "5+5=10" minigame for the offseason too?

 

[Cake Boss]

I figured out the shootout, just go in slow, dont go in at full speed doing that fake shot leg kick and doing the backhand to forhand move. Just go really slow.

Why you hating on Blogans?

 

[bishoptl]

KingHenrik, explain this shit.

 

[Red_Man]

I don't know how to respond to that picture.

 

[Cake Boss]

Why you hating on Blogans?

:lol I didnt know they had a name.

 

[KingHenrik30]

Torts is having a dog walk fundraiser, this is promoting it?

....that's all I got.

Shutup, never had a friend in net or playing with or against me in that game. I had told you, settings were set on default and what not, so it was 5 minute periods, pro, etc...

This game is better than NHL 13, though much more frustrating as it really takes getting used to with the new skating tools and what not. There are things I like and don't like about the game, but once again, it is still better than 12.

I need to get used to the coasting thing, still want to push the stick forward and try to stick handle, and well you can't really do that anymore.

You swoon reservedly.

Black skin + Hulk Hogan hair and beard = Blogan

:lol if you say so

 

[Osorio]

Henrik is like a poorly done Rembrandt.

 

[Cake Boss]

Hes just buying that canine dinner for all the shotblocking he did. He had a ruff time finishing all of it.




I am sorry.

Really not in the mood for you sarcastic comments today, but yes it happened legit.

 

[SpectreFire]

KingHenrik, explain this shit.

I need to get this shit framed.

 

[Osorio]

How Swedish are those meatballs?

I wonder.

I hate you.

 

[Socreges]

Lundqvist pic reminded me of

Van Gogh's "The Third Sedin", IIRC

 

[Coldnoodle]

I once scored 100+ goals in a 60 minute game of NHL 95 on the SNES D:

Nothing but wraparounds for 60 minutes....never again.

 

[Red_Man]

Got Galchenyuk AND Price in my first starter package for HUT. I am pleased.

Tyler Hall was the biggest player I got in my first pack.

 

[KingHenrik30]

BTW, Sabres were the team that offered Doan 4 years 30 mill according to Bucigross.

Darcy Regier, the new Glen Sather.

You got Taylor Halls brother!?!

Hey its really late, you are lucky I even had a guess at what the T could be.

Nothing you can do in that situation. Should have been a non-call.

Lol, fuck you.

Darcy Regier, the new Glen Sather.

And you too.

I was worried when I heard the some stupid Eastern Conference team offered that money to Doan. Ugh.

 

[Red_Man]

Surprised he turned that down....hell of a deal and Buffalo could be really good this year.

 

[Fei]

According to Roenick it's not a sure thing that he did turn it down. Just waiting out the Phoenix situation.

I'd rather have Doan than not, but that cap hit will knock the Sabres out of future free agents (like potentially Getz and Perry next year). Such a stupid contract.

 

[Osorio]

Doan = Parise replacement

Heard it here first.

Sidney Crosby just signed a contract that pays him 8.7 million a year.

You'd be paying Doan 1.2 million less a year... for 4 years.

Crosby.

Doan.

1.2 million difference.

(insert Devils don't have any money joke here)

I hope the Devils spend lots of money on FAs.

 

[Wendel Clark]

it's the sabres' new owner, not the GM. guy's a loon, they went crazy in the last offseason too.
