Stop your bitching!

NHLPA '93 gave me an overall rating of 1. A ONE! I've got my name on the goddamn Stanley Cup and I get an overall rating of a one! And in a game where a cross-eyed woodchuck in ice skates can at least get a 50.

what a tool, they should release an update and just take him right out of the game, he should feel lucky he's in the game. He should also realize that John Madden doesn't make the ratings, Stats Etc. tells Ea what ratings to make players I wonder if anyone will emial this guy and tell him that.

He Played for Minnesota, Washington, Tampa Bay, New Jersey, and for the Dallas Stars.

Guy Hebert had a rating of 11 in NHLPA '93. Former Flame Mark Greig was a 17 but I actually thought he was a useful player. He was on the Whalers in that game and was my leading scorer on my way to Lord Stanley.

yep I did read the whole article and the posts at the bottom, but in the event that it does end up being him, because you just never know with some people.

It's not him. That whole web site is spoof articles. Like the Onion. Still funny stuff, but completely made up. But that could be Chambers.

I remember Chambers getting the goal to tie Game 4 against Detroit. Detroit was dominating the first period and leading 2-1 in the dying minutes of the first period and Chamber took an awesome blast from the point and the rest was history.... I believe that getting to the locker room all tied up was the boost of confidence the team needed.
