CAGLS: Official NHL 13 No Hockey League - Playoffs! Rd 1 - Deadline 12/11!

I have not logged on yet so I don't know who I'm playing. So if anyone needs to play St. Louis let me know. I can be on tomorrow night however I would prefer to play the 23rd or the 24th. I'm free all day the 23rd and 24th however the games can't be really late. 9pm CST is about the latest them days I would like to play. With my hours of work I will be falling asleep if I play tomorrow after work so I would rather not play then. Just PM me with the times you are able to play.
 
[quote name='Vulcan2422']You know, in real hockey (non professional) you would either play with that amount or forfeit the game. Been many a times we had to play with 9 people or forfeit. Shame the NHL isn't the same way.

If it makes ya feel better WPark, you can play my CPU to your hearts extent.[/QUOTE]

No, I don't want to do that, that's not the point. And honestly, it wasn't even something I was all that upset about. What upset me more was getting jumped on by people who fucking bitch all the time about everything and don't get ANY shit for it. If people are having issues or problems personally that put a wrench in there schedule for a fucking video game, I obviously would understand. I was just curious as to why it didn't happen and asked a question, not calling someone an asshole.

And jza, are you 12?

You weren't upset about it, but felt the need to complain about us advancing a bit late. Whatever dude.

Forgot to set my team to CPU, ill do it next time I get on.[/QUOTE]

I'm with you. Nate, he raised a valid issue that we've all been trying to minimize (owners playing CPU unnecessarily) and you go off on him like that? Obviously he didnt know your kid was sick.

Well, it wasn't even unnecessarily. I wasn't available last night and figured people would play my team as CPU. The roster thing wasn't my fault, N8 told me a guy on my team got injured when Dark Tower played me, and that's why the rosters were screwed up.

But someone played a CPU game against me this morning, after the deadline. They could have easily had checked in to see if I was available to play after the deadline, since I never really thought about doing that, thinking it would have already progressed. It really wasn't that huge of a deal, and I only expressed the thought because I felt it was a valid question, not to pick a fight.

He had already told people to play his CPU though. But no one was able to because of the roster issue. If he had a problem with people playing the CPU, why fix the roster before we advanced? It just doesn't make sense.
 
Wpark, for the future, can you mute your Kinect during games? It's pretty stupid listening to you scream and curse at your TV, calling my goals bullshit, when you were the beneficiary of backhand rebounds for goals and Datsyuk walking through a hit from Shea Weber, losing the puck, having it stay right with him, and then taking a quick wrist shot for the game winner. Then, I get to listen to you celebrate. That was fun...

Sure. Good game.

Actually, here's an awesome Universal Remote on Amazon for a good price, since yours was broke and couldn't turn your volume down. There are a couple more options there too.

Class? What if I was on a regular headset mic? Would you have asked me to shut off my mic then? If you had a problem with it when the game started, you could have messaged me and asked me to mute it. The only reason you are saying something about it now is because you lost. Anyone in this league can go back through this thread and see that every time you get yourself into an argument with someone, it's usually because you lost a game with them, you make some excuse or comment, and it blows up.

Which makes me wonder, why DIDN'T you say something to me about it early on?

This coming from the guy who rage quit on his own brother...

Who wears their headset in a game where they're not talking to somebody? I didn't have mine on. You were coming through my TV speakers over the in game sound (which normally sounds muffled with a regular headset...but this was pretty loud). I wasn't going to pause the game to type a message to you.

Your argument is so flawed I don't even know where to begin. I lost to both MrHockey and Vulcan2422 last week. Where's my posts complaining about them? It's a nice story, but it's simply not true. I don't know how many different ways this can be put, but I say it in all my leagues, I have no problem losing. I have a problem losing to people who aren't gracious winners. I don't think yelling about how my plays were "such fucking bullshit" and then typing "gg" at the end of the game makes you a good sport. If that's all you can be bothered to say about the game, I'd rather you say nothing.

Telling me to buy a remote when I request that you turn your mic off so no one has to listen to you ridicule everything they do on the ice doesn't really seem justified. It's no secret what I think of you personally. But I didn't come in here accusing you of anything or saying that you were lucky to win. I just asked if you could mute your kinect in the future. Believe it or not, that was a serious request. You're the one escalating it into something more.

Please, don't act like a UN ambassador now that you got caught looking like an idiot. That post wasn't just a simple request and you know it. The fact of the matter is, you could have asked me to mute my Kinect if you didn't like what you heard mid-game. End of story. It works both ways. But you wouldn't have said anything about it had you won in the end, and you know it.

Aso, you should edit out the knowing about me personally line in your post, because you know absolutely nothing of me personally, like I know absolutely nothing about you personally. Other than you have a kid.
 
If you were that opposed to it, why not just say "No. I refuse to be less of a dick." At least then I could respect you for being honest.

Except you used it as an adjective, genius.
 
n8, can you mute the player on the 360 if they are using the Kinect like you can if they are using the mic? That is what I suggest you do. You shouldn't have to, but I suggest that's what you do. I have not had to on NHL 13, but I have had to on ME3.

Wpark83, if you are yelling about bull shit plays or just what ever in the game I would think you know that your Kinect is picking you up. I don't have one, but can you mute it so this does not become an issue for anyone else. I would hate having to listen to you over the game myself.

I know the Kinect can do it, I honestly didnt realize I had reset it to On. I had turned it off a few months ago cause I was having feedback issues playing COD.
 
Good game against Montreal tonight. I won the first game 1-0 I believe, and he won this one 1-0. Looking forward to the next one!



Any "bullshit" moments I've had with this game haven't really been due to cheap play or anything, but moreso just horrible AI. I can't count how many times tonight I would be coming in fast on the rush, would shoot from the half boards, put the puck on Prices' pads, and what would 99.9% of the time be an easy garbage goal in the NHL gets overskated by the left winger who apparently has no idea the puck is coming at him from the cage. I told MVP that henrique was making me rage so hard at the end of the game, and we both basically agree that the AI is garbage in this game, at times (most of the time, lezzzbeeehonest)


That shit just makes me rage all over the place. Also watching my guys overskate pucks again. I don't get it. I'll poke check the puck away, and when I go to play the puck, goes between the skates or between the stick and the skates. Frustrating to no end, and most of the time it seems like it's my top liners or second line, which *should* be the more productive lines with better stick mechanics... in an ideal world.

The best part is listening to EA's claims that they spent more time on the AI this year than in the past 3 years combined. What I always say to that is "So, what...about 15 minutes then?" To be fair though, some of those "shots" from the half boards generate ridiculous rebounds that any professional goaltender wouldn't have so much trouble handling. I've seen more garbage goals off backhanded flips from the blue line than anything.

The way rebounds work in this game is still incredibly stupid. Most of the time, the softer the shot, the bigger rebound it generates. Slappers rarely get rebounds, wrist shots, you have to whip at such an angle, the only rebounds you get are really hard, tough to handle ones. But backhanders and stupid little flips just bounce 2 feet out in front of the goalie and he just stares at it (if he can find it at all). I wouldn't mind them so much if the awareness of the goalie and the players around the net wasn't so terrible. To me, that's been the #1 way to score this year. Just throw crap on the net and hope for a stupid bounce.

In the last few games I was able to play it seemed like all I did was pass to the other team. I know against Matt and canbanana that is all it seemed like I did.

It was a really good game. The first one was actually either 3-2 or 4-3 for you. I remember because it was one of the games I gave up 3 goals in the first and had three penalties in the 1st which gave you a 5-3 PP. I had made a comeback in that one, but fell short in the last minute. Hedburg tore me up that game. I'm just glad Price decided to show up this time.

I still can't believe how your AI guy butchered the dump in the last 2 minutes. You dumped it and followed my D-Man behind the net and had an AI winger flying down the other side. Instead of cutting me off and taking the puck he decided to hit Price. I saw him coming and was thinking, "Oh shit," because I had no one nearby to pass it to.

I'd say those have got to be the top 2. I know there are a lot of fans that hate the Wings too though. Personally, mine are the Blackhawks and Pittsburgh.
 
For those of you that play HUT and might have missed it. On the main menu in the box on the bottom right there is a notification to watch a video to collect a puck reward. They had it up a week or two ago and it is back up again. It is a 30 second trailer for the new Silent Hill HD movie, and you get 500 pucks for watching it.

Haha... The good old days. I miss having a physical team like that with a great rivalry. It was one of those that despite how much you hated the other team you always looked forward to playing them because you knew anything could happen and probably would. My cousin lives in the Denver area and used to go to all of the games back in the 90s wearing his Steve Y jersey. I dream for the day when the Wings get another great rivalry like that. Right now the closest thing we have to a rivalry is with Nashville, Chicago, St. Louis (somewhat renewed after this past season), San Jose, and Pittsburgh. Even then the Nashville one isn't really all that great of one in terms of physicality and San Jose is mostly due to the playoffs of two and three years ago.

Haha, yup, was definitely one of the best rivalries of any sport.
 
just had a funny glitch happen. I had the puck and was skating into the offensive zone. The canes took a penalty and the goalie skated to the bench like normal. I shoot the puck and the canes goalie touches it for the whistle. The next faceoff comes up and the canes get it. They skate down ice into my zone. He dumps the puck into the zone from the blue line and it goes into an empty net! The goalie is nowhere to be found. Hes not even on the ice. He must have had to go pee or needed a hot dog. I guess he heard the goal horns going off and decided hed better get his but back to the ice before someone noticed he was gone. He proceded to protect his goal like normal after that. Thanks EA.

Thanks MVP for the advice. I need to adjust my d guys. I dont like the way I have them set up. I made changes to my strategy tonight and lost every game. Of course it doesnt help that half my team is injured either.
 
Pheonix here, I'm available tuesday evening, but not too late in the night. I don't remember my exact schedule, but I do know I have a lot of people to play. just pm me here or message on live.
 
[quote name='DestroVega']Hey Ninjas, good game. Didn't want to pour it on, your goalie had a rough game.[/QUOTE]

Yes indeed good game. Cam ward has some rough games but that was one of his worst games yet. You overall offense and defense played great and it embarrassed my team big time in that game. Again good game Destro
 
I meant to post this the other night but forgot. Wanted to give credit to the Devils owner. In our game, he lost connection with me leading 1-0. When we resumed, he made sure pull the goalie to give me back that goal. Since it was only the second period when the drop happened, I didn't even think of it, so it was a classy move on his part.

Yeah the first game we played, we looped right at the beginning of face off and ended up kicking us out of the game.

2nd game was weird because he didn't have a goalie at net during power play. Came up the ice and noticed it was just a defenseman playing in net. Haha sorry that happened to ya man. Good game though.

Good games tonight Florida and Carolina. Hopefully, I can finally pull a win out against you at some point Carolina. Complete 180 of last game which I think was 1-0. That game Ward and Price were both unstoppable and then tonight the puck was unstoppable for them. Apparently my team thinks they are the Detroit Lions and that playing from behind is perfectly normal. I think 4 of 6 losses have come after giving up 3 goals in the first period and a half and then coming back to lose by 1.

Yeah, that was definitely a good game between us. That third period was getting to me when you were slowly catching me. When you got the last goal, I had to play strong defense to grab the win. Again gg MVP.

I only have Rangers and Devils now to finish up the week. I hope Cam Ward doesn't let me down in those games.
