Rocky McMuffin just went 2nd overall in year 3 of my Oilers sim. Was very tempted to tank for him to get the McDavid-McMuffin combo but didn't pull the trigger.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Tiny Wang

Hey, I think I've seen you on YT! You're created prospects videos have been very handy! Thank you

too many damn xaviers in the league when u get like 10 years in

every time

 

[TheYardMachine]

Lee Li which was a forward from the USA if i remember correctly!

I got back on EHM after a long absence and found this guy in my search for a 7th defenseman.

He actually genned with really good defensive stats, too. (also, he's 6'6" and 218 lbs.) I might look into him but I have my top 6 set up and I'd like to see him get a regular shift. Still pretty cool, though.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!

I drafted Chinese super stud Ray Brashear in 2023 once. Be a GM is unplayable after year 5 lmao.

Wow this is hilarious, I haven’t played video games in a while (PS3 - NHL13). Who would name their child Tiny.

 

[Dynamite Time]

I almost want to go get a PS4 and the latest EA NHL. Of course if I do the new PS5 or whatever it’s named will be on it’s way to the market.

Oh man I've found some funny ones, I think I saved some screenshots I'll have to check. One guy had "lol" in his name, NHL 17 though.

Got one of these the other day and wish I took a picture of it. It was something like Jonathan Jer lol, I swear. The lol wasn't capitalized and it was part of a two-word last name.

That would make a cool storyline. Like the 2nd generation (the kids of Datsyuk etc) coming through the pipeline

Funny you mention that. I kind of always imagine that there are siblings once you get to generated names. Like, I've drafted a D man named Chris Zanetti and two years later, his brother Erik Zanetti pops up as a playmaker C. They're brothers.

 

[DontPanik]

Had a guy named Tiny McNaughton in NHL 16. LOL

 

[Stasis]

I'm not far along and none of mine compare to some you guys are posting, especially from previous years' games...

But I did get:

I. Brain - Enforcer (Ian)

R. Rabbit (Ronald, sadly!)

 

[MarkusKetterer]

In my current Be A GM, Carolina has a Jordan Staal. From Denmark.

Wonder if he knows my 96 overall winger Harry Pope from Kazakhstan.

Sometimes in the late rounds of the draft I'll just pick the most ridiculous sounding name and hope I strike gold. The broken name generator sometimes keeps things interesting.

I do, and noticed, the same thing bahahahaha! Maybe there is actually something to this

 

[SmokeyDuck]

My top goalie prospect is Pat Stewart

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

the same first name as last name ones make me die laughing every time

makes me think of louis lewis from curb your enthusiasm

 

[fredligh]

This is one of the reasons i haven't play be a gm in like forever, a guy called Brad yzerman from North korea is the top guy before the draft, ok...... at least organize the names, how hard could it even be to select fore and surname for each country to make a newgen list, and then have a ranking from hockey tradition, fx Canada Russia Sweden US most probably.

 

[ToppsSmith]

I just got a guy named Ron McDonald
