Good stuff last night. We were able to dress two full teams and get our record headed back in the right direction.

Diemenz, you played great last night dude. I had fun centring your line with KG & flamestalker (even if you have some work to do on your puck control!!!).

Good job getting back over .500.

We would be 2 games over .500 if someone who I won't say but whose name rhymes with status mack, hadn't pass called from the goalie(again) with 3 minutes left leading to the other team scoring.

glad to hear you guys are doing well.

not sure how much i will be on this summer and if logistically i will be much help next year... my wife and i are moving to south carolina next month so things are getting pretty busy for us. i still have some gaming time the next couple weeks before packing has to take priority but i have been so into RDR that i haven't played much. additionally, that will put me 2 time zones ahead of you guys and another 1000 miles away. so lag and playing times might make me a crappy teammate next year.

just wanted to let you guys know as we have all spent countless hours playing with one another.

Hey, they scored again anyways on us afterwards. And it's all for the sake of the transition game.

Would've been better to take it to OT first and gamble there than taking one in the loss column. This isn't the first time your pass calls have led to a goal either. Pass calling is fine...when you're open. You seem to do it whenever the cpu has the puck. Even on the penalty kill when you're looking for the breakout pass and you're not even on screen.

Unfortunately, I'll be in the same boat by the time the next game comes out. It's ok dobbles, you can play NHL11 with me!

Nevertheless, this is something we defiantly need to cut down on. Both when the goalie has the puck and when a CPU skater has the puck. If you're not open, not safe to do so, or takes away from a better passing option, don't do it.

Don't worry about it, buddy. I feel the same way about you and your puck hogging. I don't really care either way though, I do this for fun. If you guys want me off the team, let me know. I can find another that likes to have fun when playing (I say this to a minority because there quite a few of you I have a good relationship with). We all have faults but mine are being brought up publically (as a joke, I know). Some of you pinch too much, hog the puck only to turn it over, cause too many odd man rushes, don't pass, etc. It's not like we are not all guilty of doing some of this, even the better players.

Wow this thread went down in a hurry.

I will agree that the call for passes are extremely frustrating, occasionally we all have a bad few games. But its about improving upon the mistakes we make and changing them. If the behavior never changes it can get very frustrating and even tho some might be having fun others are not.

I will also admit that I avoid a few players like the plague because they make the game completely un-enjoyable for me because I feel they play a selfish game with no respect for trying to improve.

Personally if I do something wrong repeatedly I don't mind at all hearing about it cause removing that from the game would make the game more enjoyable for others which would translate into more fun for me.

I know what torch is trying to say, as every game we give up at least 1 goal due to a terrible call from pass from the goalie and a goal because of a defensive deke at the blue line after a while it goes from funny to just downright frustrating.

I'm friends with Diverse and i told him his skate from the corner to the blue line in the offensive zone to pass the puck move instead of just passing the puck belongs in the special Olympics, in turn he told me my stupid penalties almost always result in a PP goal for the other team. Instead of me threating to quit i decided to try and correct the behavior so everyone can have more fun.
