That feel when youre in a **** season as a Gm (14-10-3) and your backup goalie leads the team in wins

i dont get why everyone gets all into doing unrealistic trades and obtaining every superstar they can. All you are doing is exploiting the games flaws. I dont see fun in that. I much rather keep it somewhat realistic

 

[DevilzFan]

one day! :'(

Yeah, I caved and bought it for the PS3. I'll get it again when it's on the PC and Steam has it on sale. Need mods!

Finally got my 16GB USB flash drive. Installing GTA V to it now. After configuring it to my Xbox 360, it popped up with this:

"Performance Warning
Your device is ready, but doesn't meet Xbox 360 performance recommendations.
You may experience significant performance problems playing games from the device or saving games and profiles to it."

It ****ing better not!

So my abysmal team finished the season 42-34-6. Juzt make the playoffs and go on to win the cup. i sit back and say how? Trade deadline i sold Halak and started the my Backup. he just went and won the Conn Smythe with a 1.61 GAA and a .949 SV%.

Biggest pet peeve in NHL14 is when Dmen in drop in games don't play D. If you really wanted forward so much just leave and find a new lobby. so aggravating when im left out to dry when my D partner plays forward lol

one day EA will put a Vote to Kick option

I'm with you there. I play D in 90% of my drop-in games, and way too often I'm the only one back on a 2 or 3 on 1 situation. The worst is a D partner who doesn't know how to use the boards. If I've got the puck and have one or two guys coming at me, I'll pass along the boards to where my other D man is supposed to be. The ones who don't know and are in a similar situation try passing up the ice, often causing a turnover right in front of the goalie.

Too many RWers, I know. Temporary. D is gonna get a juicy make over once Ekblad gets his jump. Also still actively trying to land Pietrangelo.

Is it usb 2.0 and at least 15mbps? If it is it should work.

Yup, I played it for 5 hours and had no issues whatsoever. Stupid Microsoft.

[EliasFTW]

NHL 14 tells me we have a game againts the pens the 3rd on the main screen. pretty neat idea

Restarted be a GM. At the draft i traded Volch 2014 1st and 3rd Yayo and 2015 2nd For St. Louis and 3rd overall. Tedenby and Severson went for 2nd overall and a few minor players. At the deadline i st in 6th in the east at 31-23-8. I need to add LW and D depth without subtracting.


Elias (83) - Zajac (87) - St.Louis (87)

GTA Online is so ****ed, as expected. Servers are just dismantled. I'm stuck on the first race. It just won't connect.

When I started my Be a GM, I got a 2014 2nd and a 2015 1st from Ottawa for Volchenkov. That first in 2015 ended up being first overall and I got McDavid. Thanks A-Train.

 

[Game Breaker]

Sucks that I can't find the GTA special edition anywhere. Unavailable in every Best Buy in the tristate area and crazy money on ebay. Poop.

This was pretty funny. http://kotaku.com/you-will-not-believe-this-gravity-defying-gta-v-car-cha-1426721644

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Pissed about gta online...it's so broken. That was to be expected though

 

[DevilzFan]

I can't even download the 1.01 update for GTA which adds in GTA Online on the PS3. The download keeps failing.

 

[B A T M A N]

Damn, what a year 3. Won the Stanley Cup for the second time in three years, against the teams I beat in year 1 (Tampa and SJ). Draft was very unspectacular. Didn't have a pick in the first or second round and everybody I drafted is 3 stars or under.

The wheeling and dealing happened in offseason. Right after the draft I traded Tedenby and a prospect with very low value for Barkov and a future 2nd round pick. Barkov's value and overall was horribly low. As of July, his overall SKYROCKETED to 81. Signed Brassard and Seabrook - flipped Seabrook, Tarasenko and a future first for Pietrangelo (FINALLY). Acquired Rielly.

Year 4 team:

Yakupov (86) - Tavares (91) - Kane (88)
Barkov (81) - Henrique (88) - Erne (84)
Brunner (81) - Brassard (84) - Clowe (80)
Olesz (78) - LeBlanc (81) - Penner (80)

Ekblad (86) - Pietrangelo (90)
Hedman (86) - Larsson (83)
Rielly (84) - Gelinas (80)

Schneider (86)
Veilleux (55)

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

If Schneider goes down you're ****ed!

 

[Ripshot 43]

If Schneider goes down you're ****ed!

From the sounds of the nhl14 trade engine and what I'm hoping sounds like he's playing trades on easy, he could just trade a future 2nd round pick for one of the leagues elite goalies and the other team would still have to give back a decent prospect

 

[DEVILS130]

anybody else notice Brunner is missing in the latest roster update? I can't find him on the Devils or in the free agent pool
