Anyone here interested in remaking a CP NHL 08 League? Let me know, if we get enough people to join, we might be able to start another one.

Tag is Great Crouton

I have DiRT, NHL 08, TWG 08 and Halo 3. Would love it if the CP league was to reform. Don't get me wrong, I like playing the computer in the Dynasty League but nothing beats playing another human that is prone to mistakes like I am. I find the online games to be very stressful but very exciting.

I love playing online, especially if they only try to body check you. Just pull a 1 on 1 deak and breakaway! lol

Also, for the NHL 08 league play, is it like Dynasty season where you can trade players with other teams or is it just games.

Man, trying to master that one on one deke is becoming difficult for me. I'm pretty sure you need the right type of player to pull that move effectivley (Like Juice over Conny for instance) but it seems as though I let the puck "Float" to much and it's pokechecked away before I have a chance to pick it up again.

Im in for the league.
I don't know how the live league system works. But I was thinking we could even make our own league could we not?
We get a bunch of us, designate a team per player, and then just play each other. That way we can use our own rules, and other stuff

AFireInside · 01-07-2008, 12:56 PM

I'm up for the league as well...

A problem I had was that I keep losing control because my skills stick and the skate stick were not going the same direction. I usually have my skate stick tilted diagonally up like a "/" but sometimes I tap skill stick to horizontally and overskate. Just remember to have both sticks pointing to the same direction.

FlamesPuck12 · 01-08-2008, 12:39 AM

I got the league set up.
Name: Calgarypuck
Abbreviation: CPL
Max Players: 15
Games Against Each Player: 3
5 min / period games, NHL Rules, Penalties and Fighting On

So how do I start inviting people to join the league?

AFireInside · 01-08-2008, 01:08 AM

I tried to join, but it says I need a password

FlamesPuck12 · 01-08-2008, 01:08 AM

Oops forgot, it is "Flames"
How did you request to join?

AFireInside · 01-08-2008, 01:11 AM

I just searched it, I'm going to try again

AFireInside · 01-08-2008, 01:13 AM

Ok I'm in!

FlamesPuck12 · 01-08-2008, 01:15 AM

Alright I'll post a thread for our CP league. Hopefully we get 10+ people interested.

AFireInside · 01-08-2008, 01:17 AM

Unfortunately I imagine everyone will pick the flames as their team, I just realized that we are both the Flames lol!

haha obviously but I don't think thats a problem, I might change to another team if it starts getting to be out of control. By the way can you come online tomorrow? I want to test out if we can actually trade players, edit lines and stuff.

AFireInside · 01-08-2008, 01:32 AM

Yeah I will be online at some point tomorrow evening for sure

PowerPlayoffs06 · 01-08-2008, 07:13 AM

Got myself all hooked up on Live last night after picking up an Xbox on the weekend.

If anybody wants to add me, my tag is RapiersEdge.

Right now all I have for games is Halo 3, Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Forza Motorsport. Hope to pick up one or two more with the next paycheque... So I guess I should get to work.

foofighter15 · 01-08-2008, 10:10 AM

Give me some time to get in on that league! Probably do so after the game tonight
