We can start your beating...... I mean our game tonight if you want. I'll be on around 7 or so.

Here's a hint to whomever is playing Jayems. Do not run at him with your D. Keep skating backwards with him (not allowing a breakaway), and guard against the one timer by holding L1. He'll probably still beat you, but that will bring him foen from scoring 7 goals a game to 3 or 4.

**** Hopefully someone can rid the playoffs of him before myself or Bibtin Tex has to play him

Thanks for the tips. I quickly figured that out after the first game. But it's the darn penalties and no offense that is killing me. Watching the Flames play this year has sapped me of any creativity in the game. I might get the odd goal but that's it. I take stupid penalties and have the ######ed giveaway that will lose me the game. God damn you Flames!!!

And you're putting too much stock into me. Sorry, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be a 4-0 blowout

Jayems · 02-10-2010, 03:52 PM

You guys have it all wrong. They key to beating me is to put your d on the highest aggression level so I can easily sneak by them and get odd man rushes when they come way out to hit. If you do this, I guarantee success and I won't score any goals... Also, just dump it in from the blueline and allow my defenders to pick it up. Please don't come in and shoot the puck at my goalie. He likes his down time, and shooting rubber projectiles at him makes him a tad pissy. It'd also be appreciated if you gave me half until you try and check me. That way, I'm not rushing my passes.

Thanks in advance,

I think he's lying.

Bibtin Tex · 02-10-2010, 10:01 PM

^ I tried all that, I'm pretty sure I lost like 8-1.

Bibtin Tex · 02-10-2010, 10:01 PM

I seemed to have missed you MJM haha, I'm on right now if you want to play a game or two.

Hmmm... any other tips guys? I'm in some desperate need of advice to beat this guy if you guys don't want to play him. How should I set my forecheck? Should I do a 3-2, 2-1-2 low/high? I'm going to set my defense in passive mode. How about offense, aggressive?

I may be on after the Flames game tonight (and maybe during depending on their play).

Bibtin Tex · 02-11-2010, 07:21 PM

I'll be on after for sure.

Jayems · 02-11-2010, 07:31 PM

Bibtin Tex · 02-11-2010, 11:37 PM

I just missed you again MJM, I'm on now if it isn't too late.

wooohooo · 02-11-2010, 11:50 PM

Sorry Jayems. I had every intention to be on today but my roomate had some buddies over and they were playing MW2 all night.

Jayems · 02-11-2010, 11:57 PM

No problemo.

wooohooo · 02-12-2010, 12:15 AM

If you want to play now I'm down

Jayems · 02-12-2010, 01:26 PM

I'll be home from work around 9:30 pm tonight. Probably get on then, if you're around.

wooohooo · 02-12-2010, 01:27 PM

Okay. I'll try, I have a bunch of friends going skating tonight but if it's too cold then I'll stay home and play.

I would like to join the league. I was an active user previously (Fryds) and didn't sign up for this due to RRoD. I should have my Xbox back in a few days and would like to join. Please consider.

wooohooo · 02-12-2010, 10:57 PM

Great job owning me. I think I scored maybe 1 goal in the ENTIRE SERIES. You are way too good
