I just lost Phaneuf for six weeks with an ankle injury. The same time Regehr was returning from his injury.

and exactly how long have you been on the board??? WE ARE ALL LIKE THAT

I know EA finally added season mode again to the game. But my question is can you play it offline with other people (aka my brother picks Wings, I take Caps)?

Yes, technically you could play it with 29 friends if you wanted. I requested this mode like crazy because my friends and I used to play it. Unfortunately EA took a bit too long getting it out and now we're all grown up and living in opposite quadrants of the city.

Also on a EASHL note, if the creator leaves a team, will that team no longer exist, even if other GM's have been assigned?

Also definitely not joining the big club until I get my passing down.
If there is still another GM in the club it survives.

Normally, my character's name is 'Michael Scarn'.

When I went to play with Spike and Merc, I entered the game to see "Cory Anderson", played for a period, got dropped by EA's server's and went to check out my player.

In the menu, it says "Michael Scarn", but on the ice, it was Anderson.

Effed.

I've never been a big fan of fighting in hockey games, infact I usually turn the AI setting all the way down so I don't have to bother. But with this game, I'm really enjoying it! I used Conroy to beat up Laraque, so either I'm really good at fighting, or I need to change the fighting difficulty.

Also, I had a guy fight a couple times in one game, and he ended up having a black eye for a couple games. I've also heard (and seen a screenshot) that plays that have jaw injuries will come back to play with a jaw protector. Neat little feature!

I think the game doesn't like the name "Scarn" so it replaces it with a generic name. Kinda like if you use a ridiculous last names like "Obama", "EA Sucks", etc. I recall I tried to use "He Hate Me" and it didn't like that, so I got a generic name.

I don't know why it won't accept "Scarn" unless EA has something against dung beetles, but if you really want that name, just use those german letters that you can use when entering names...

everyone knows a true fan would have spent weeks adjusting sliders and editing players facial features to more accurately match real life!

I spent two hours alone just trying to edit the sliders to get the game to match Phaneuf's skating style.

Goal I scored:



Sorry for the terrible quality, but I was online so I couldn't actually save it properly.

Edit - BTW, this was a nice goal for me because I'm a lefty, so a right handed goal is a rare occurence, a nice one like this has never happened.

That goal doesn't seem very realistic to the rest of us true hockey fans. Are you sure you spent enough time adjusting your sliders?
