Ya I remember one time in my dynasty on 2005 i got in a fight against him with Regher and he didn't even get in a punch. But still it was nice of EA to put them in the game

I havent played her yet, but hell, I got enough problems scoring as it is, so im sure she'll shut me out.

I think they shouldve released her as a download code possibly. That way people that want her for the challenge can do it, as people who want the "official" roster can have that aswell.

For people with her on the Vancouver team, whered Loungo end up? IR? haha

I like the way that they handled Zach Priest in 2005, though, cause he was really just any average player who gets the crap beaten out of him in fights and starts out as a free agent

Or put her in but make her stats a little realistic. I know it's a video game and she's a sick kid but it kinda ruins the game when you forget to send her to another league and then you face her in the playoffs and can't score on her after lighting up the league for the season.

Oh well, could be worse it could be your family member or friend in the game.

Wasn't there some fat kid free agent in the 08 version? Forget the name but was a forward, very high ratings and was like 17 years old.

never heard of him but at any rate its still great of EA to do this for these kids and if u do need the talent then why not put them on your own teams instead of banishing them to the abysmal depths of the European teams

Ah ha! She isn't even dying! Apparently according to this months hockey news her dad won an auction to get her in the game. Now I can continue to curse a blue streak at her on a daily basis without feeling that twitch of guilt.

Funny that this thread resurrected right when I was thinking about this particular goalie. Does anyone know which team she is on by default in the current rosters?

That info may come in handy to play a trick on an unsuspecting friend...

Edit: Nevermind, she's a Free Agent courtesy of google...oh well, it would have been funny to pick some backwater team and beat my buddy who has almost certainly not heard of Sabrina

She's always been with the Leafs on mine. She's tough to beat, but I tend to cash in on rebounds against her.

I take a lot of joy in winding up on breakaways and fire slapshots at her head, then coming in with my stick in cross checking position.
