Default NHL 08 league?

Hey everyone, I know there are a bunch of people on here who play nhl 08 online. Just wondering if anyone here has a calgarypuck league on the go? Has anyone here been apart of league, how are they set up, is it a set schedule or do you just play whenever?

Not sure if maybe I'm just better off adding usernames from calgarypuck to play against instead of looking for a league..

Lags In Banff, but I'm usually playing Team Fortress 2 more. Too many 'unreadable disc' errors for my liking.

Scheduling:

You go online, go to the league, and it will show you what league players are online. You then challenge them to a league game.

We all know it lags in Banff.. you don't need to keep saying it, over, and over, and over, and over...



Anyway, I actually found a liking in 2k8 from 08. I actually can't stand to play online sports games because everyone is a cheeser.. I even quit a league because too many people were cheezing it up.

Its when a player goes for a sure goal every time. A for sure goal is someone going from the corner, and cutting in front of the net, then scoring on the far post.... or coming into the hashmarks and wristing it glove side.

Unfortunately, most in the top 100 play this way... so you have to learn how to defend it or learn to cheese.

Hah.. I guess I'm a cheezer at times. I don't really do the hash marks glove side thing so much, but I cut out in front of the net once in a while.. I don't score most of my goals that way though. I think I probably score most of my goals on dekes..

well thanks. I cut out from the corner every once and awhile, not always a goal for me, but I didn't realize its one of those. I hate those

I try to mix it up all the time, including going around the net to the other side for a one timer works a lot of the time

Sorry to highjack... but are people getting a lot of these 'unreadable disc errors' with NHL08 for 360? I get them pretty much every 2nd or 3rd time I play the game. I got one last night too playing Smackdown vs. Raw 2008. I think that's the first time with any other game, but I keep getting them with NHL08.
