NHL Lockout With Your Cock Out |OT|

Ha, I'll throw these in extra if wanted, I have 2 or 3 lying around in my inventory anyway. And no, not like that.
Initial prices given out to Crazed and BigJonsson, who were the winners of the first two seasons, are a choice between:Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gods & Kings DLC
Spec Ops: The Line
Sleeping Dogs
or sth else if all those are crap. We'll see.

Credit to Smiley for providing the games and the idea.

Alright Folks, listen up!
Socreges and myself decided that it would be fun to add a little incentive to win the sought-after virtual Stanley Cup, apart from just fame and glory! Starting this season and retro-active for current league members (that's mainly for you, BigJonsson and Crazed), winners of the Stanley Cup in the NHL 13 GM Connected league will receive a FREE STEAM GAME as a reward! Prizes will vary depending on what's available at the time of winning, but I guarantee it won't be disappointing! The winner will get a choice between 2, 3 games to pick as well, again, all depending upon availability.
Bottom line: Get the Cup, Get Games. Enjoy!

In regards to the media, yes. But I think he's a fantastic sniper and it would be awesome to see his playing still happen. At least he's got a charity game next week.

US has John Gibson, so you're fucked either way.

Murray is unlikely but is going to check with the BJ's doctors

Our goaltenders will probably find some way to fuck it up.

US has this fierce guy :
FIERCE.
Wonder why he's not playing for Vussia...
And yeah, Subban will lead Canada to the glory fields. Will Jordan Subban be playing too?
He was born in the states and lived there quite a while, and chose to play for you guys, lucky for you

He chose to play for Australia? Good on him!
Ethnically Russian, born in the USA, raised by the Crocodile Dundee trilogy. He went where his heart is.

Subban is legit, the WJC is already in the bag
Russia has some good goalies too. Worst part about the WJC this year is it's in Russia so the games will be super early.

I'll be watching a stream at 1am :/
And incase it isn't obvious, I'm backing Canada like I have done for every international competition since 2004.

Well, he's supposed to be the most talented of the three.
Test result news now official:

Weird, good feeling right now. I feel like my brain needs to be re-calibrated after months of self-induced torture.

Good shit!
How can people judge this already? What if he does a LaFleur and gets rocked then starts doing coke off strippers while wearing Ed Hardy?
But seriously, I can see if on the scale of progress you can see where they're positioned. If he's better at PK than he was when he was 17 then it's likely he will be.
Except where you do place Malcolm in this? He's the only goalie.
Sweetness!
I'm down man, I've only done the first episodes worth of missions, but I'll go through them again.
Told you the burning sensation would go away! I'm glad you're ok =)
Yay!
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Great news!
He'll be more than ready for NHL hockey in 2015.

I like the idea of a earlier time to start free agency, but 48 hours after the SC winner? That seems way too short.

True, hopefully the agreed upon date is about a week before July 1st, seems like that would be a sweet spot for both sides.
Also congrats on the news!

Yes, keep it away from Canada Day
Yes please, it's always annoying have to constantly check for updates while out with friends drinking all day.
Good news I guess. This is from a Montreal media guy, who despite his name seems to be reliable. He called Latendresse signing with Ottawa a couple days before it happened. Seems like this may be one of the last real efforts to save a season at this point.Stormin Normin said:
I never understood why free agency started on Canada Day, of all the days.
Not sure if I'd move it sooner or later, though.
I'm all for spreading out the Entry Draft and Opening of free agency. They're both exciting events so it makes sense to split them up to "double the fun".
It will be strange, however, to have pending free agents win a Stanley Cup (or lose a final)... and then leave their team and sign on with a new one just a couple days afterwards. Kinda like when Chris Pronger demanded a trade outta Edmonton the day after the Oilers lost Game 7.
Btw. It will be interesting to see the NHLPA's proposal tmrw. Media are "optimistic" and "hopeful" for good news. I think we've heard that about 38 times throughout this shitshow :lol
If the NHLPA proposes something reasonable on the HRR split end, the NHL will more than likely be more willing to budge on player contracting issues and this whole mess can get resolved. They're fairly close on revenue sharing, they're fairly close on a few of the contracting issues...The big things right now are the HRR split (the players need to lay out a realistic 50/50 plan), and the contracting issues (the owners need to swiftly start to actually negotiate contracting issues once the HRR split is more to their liking).
I don't have much hope. I don't really think either side is all that interested in putting their "best offer" forward yet, so I think this thing drags on another couple weeks to a month at least before we finally get a legitimate push to save the season.
