Anyone up for a mini NHL league? A couple of games vs each opponent?

I'd be interested in something small. Maybe one home and away game each?

Can we just pick teams? If so, I'll take the Rangers so you can have the Devils Derek. Assuming it just stays at 4 teams, what do you guys think of a simple home/away game schedule? http://www.sportsgamingnation.com/leagues/standings.php?conf=16 - NHL 11 League Schedule ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/JasonSGN">

Great! Yeah, I'll take the Devils if you guys don't mind. I know cyber-Brodeur is annoying, though, so really, if anyone has a problem with him I'll use someone else. (Or at least switch if we do another round) Thanks for being a 4th, Brent! ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

Someone needs to finish 4th, might as well be me. I need to get you and Slumber back on my friends list. I always clean up the people who I have not played online in a while. My OCD holds no bounds.

Ok, Derek and Brent's accounts have been updated with their teams. Seth, let me know who you want and I'll get you updated too. Obviously, the games can be played in any order. I just put the dates so that the schedule had some sort of order. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/JasonSGN">

EA needs to allow "Auto Aim" in unranked games online. They have discussed it in the past but still not available. That would be a big help for me as I have that same problem. -------------

I got it to work. There's now an option for OT Win and OT Loss when submitting your scores. An OT loss will give now give the losing team one point. I went ahead and updated your game and it worked perfectly. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/JasonSGN">

Just a heads up for my future games, I will need to go in and edit my custom camera before the puck drops. I tried to live with the action camera against Derek but it keeps you too far away from the action half of the time. Hopefully a patch will cure this.

Really fun tonight, guys! Glad I could get a couple in. I needed a really sloppy, slap at it goal to get the win over Dallas, and Brodeur blanked the Rangers on some really good chances.

No voice chat in our game. Derek do you use the headset when playing? I know in the first game you were watching the kids. Really I am not that bad and keep cursing to a minimum, unless it is Jason I am playing.

Great game Derek. I gave it everything I had and still came up short. I'll take some consolation in knowing that I had more shots than you (20 to 18) and almost won the same amount of faceoffs as you (I won one less than you). I wanted to take out Brodeur with my stick for all those saves he made against me.

Slumber I sent you a couple messages on XBL asking if you wanted to play NHL and never got a reply. Do you by any chance have the new dashboard or are you are you still using the old one? It might be a glitch because I always get a "can't sign into messenger" when I log in. How are you enjoying NBA 2K11? The Jordan challenge seemed interesting, have you played it yet? -------------

Brent, sorry! I had a game of NBA running so I could switch to it when the Jet game went to commercial, so I didn't see those pop-ups when they happened... I should be around tomorrow night if you'd like to play, otherwise things ease up (crazy work week and then company obligations and performances at night) after Saturday. Jordan challenges are pretty fun... but a little frustrating when you play the whole thing and miss the target by a single rebound or assist. As a fan of 90's basketball I am loving it though. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/Slumberland">

Hey Derek, I think I could knock these out tonight if you're around tonight. Not sure if I'm long for this game. I think it's MOST EXCELLENT but I don't have enough time to do anything meaningful in all these sports games I suddenly own, and the career mode in NBA 2K11 seems like it's going to be my primary focus. Might as well jump on the Amazon trade in while the value's still okay. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/Slumberland">

Hi Slumber. If I see you on and I can get my game to work, I'll shoot you an invite.
My disk has one of those cracks in it coming from the center out (Stemming from one of those stubborn disk holders in the box), and the last few times I have tried to play it hasn't been recognizing the disk. If it does, however, the games usually play fine.
This is now the third time this has happened to me, and while I can probably place some of the blame on my kids, the weird part is is that last year's NHL was one of the others! (Flatout being the third)
I'm really enjoying this year's game, so I'm going to pick myself up a replacement, but I may wait until I can find a good deal. Similar to what you said, I'm kinda buried in good games at the moment.
However, if you are getting rid of yours I'll try like heck to get booted up tonight so that we can finish the league. Do you know when you may be online? ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">
