I played a few games this afternoon before work. The Oilers were on quite a tear for me, going something like 4 and 1. After work, however, has been a different story. I've lost twice more to the Ducks (yay! 0-4 against Pronger and co.) and have only won one game in my last six. I've really started to shore up my PK, though. Although I may not blow teams out of the water offensively I seem to be getting better playing in my own end.

Got my new copy, and it is working... so far.

 

I've alreayd played 20 games of my first season of franchise as the NY Rangers.

 

I'm 11-7-2. I'm 2nd in the division, and 4th in conference (3rd in points though).

 

I'm only playing 5 minute periods or else scoring, and shots would be ridiculous. Too bad, it's hard to get powerplays/penalties and get into fights.

 

Game isn't super hard; but it has decent dififculty on pro (I'm gonna move up to all star soon) mostly because you cna't really control how good your goalie will be in a certain game...

 

I'll probably check out the on line version tomorrow sometime.

I've been using that deke move with the left button and the two thumbsticks lately. Scoring goals one on one doesn't work that well, but if you're in tight to the net it's a great way to set up an open teammate for a quick one timer.

I decidced to bump this kinda old threa dinstead of crafting a brand new one for maybe a handful of people who actually play this game...

 

Question.. who here still plays NHL 08? And, of thsoe that do, who'd be up to joining a league.. that keeps track of stats? If so PM me.. L0L I'm looking at those who have posted in this thread who may be interested..

 

Otherwise, I'll just spam about my franchise.

 

Season 5 is over, and finally I made the play offs. Ovechkin, and my create dplayer are quite a pair as the team racked up 96 points inspite of my player's injury with 10 games to go... Ovechkin had 85 points in 82 games (including 44 goals), and my guy (let's call him Bouchard for kicks) had 72 points in 72 games (as opposed to the season before when he had 96 points including about 53 or so goals).

 

Lundqvist was much better, and led the league in shutouts (9) though he *didn't* win Vezina unlike season 2.

 

In 1st round, beat NJ in 7 games.

 

In 2 round, lost to Florida in 7 games despute crushing them 71, and 8-0 in games 3, and 4. My guy had 19 points in 10 games (missed the first 3 versus NJ because of that injury). O had 16 points in 14 games. Lost 2-0 in game 7. Urgh.

 

Hopefully, season #6 is even better!

 

 

Once again, i gotta say, this is the BEST hockey game EVAR!
