NHL 2K9 / NHL 09

PSN people, can we get something going here?

[Cactus Drags]

And can someone answer my goalie question?

Another question, is there a key to building powerplay lines, like stats or abilities I should be looking at, I do I just chuck players together and see if it works? I miss the old chemistry thing, I feel lost when I'm putting lines together these days.

[Plubby]

I generally try some combo of butterfly on top of it/move the sticks in the direction the puck lies. *usually* butterflying on top of the puck is a safe bet. It's automatic some of the time as well.

[Cactus Drags]

Thanks. By the way, was this the kind of save you were asking about? If so, I think it's just a canned desperation animation, I got it hitting the right bumper.

And mwahahaha, after being benched for poor performance (5 games in which I conceded no fewer than 3 goals, lost them all), the other guy Jason Bascaschashchashhachashahchashasia broke his collarbone in his first start, so I'm back to no.1 by default . Also, I still maintain that it's not my fault we're losing games. Last game against hte Rivermen, we had 10 powerplays, at least 3 5-on-3s due to delay of game penalties, and we had 1 powerplay goal. We're outshooting the other teams quite considerably, and the gap in time of attack is ridiculous, yet we don't score. Bench me? Fuck that, bench our entire powerplay units.

[Cactus Drags]

Alright, I think I'm confident enough to put the Steel Curtain up in goal for CAMTA. Anyone else any good on the draw?

[Whisper]

I win the odd one or two... more than I've seen anyone else (you aside) win... but I'm far from good at it..

[Slogger]

*CAMTA sense tingles*

I've won a couple when Dragsy's been in the box, But I'm not as good as Whisper, Just my two bob, Next question.

Whats the reason for asking?

[Cactus Drags]

Uh, because goalies can't take faceoffs? Is that not obvious? :/

Also, no wonder interference never gets called in EASHL, when this is what they program their AI to do. Fucking hell.

For most questions, there's common sense. For everything else, there's Slogger.

People attempting to do the wrap around slapshot goals online is the best thing ever. I am now 14-0 and because of people relying on that to score, I can limit my opponents to less then 6 shots on a regular basis. I just throw the puck at the net as much as possible and score 2 or 3 and pick up the easy wins.

[IAceI]

That happens constantly. Whenever I'm playing BAP and move into the slot I get the living hell beating out of me, I assumed it was just normal.

[Cactus Drags]

It is, I just never get round to uploading it. But that should never ever happen. Firstly, it's not proper defensive behaviour, I know there's scuffles and that, but that's ridiculous. Secondly, the odd interference call might be nice.

[Toe]

I am now 17-0. That is all.

[Slogger]

*Goldberg Theme* TOOOOOOOOOOOE DUMdumDUM........

[Meacon Keaton]

He'll come back in in an hour and be 34-0!

[Slogger]

And then soon enough.

173-0!!!

[IAceI]

I'll have Live quite shortly I expect, especially sometime today. And since I'll be limited to NHL 09 for a while, I'll be up for some online play later perhaps should I be around.

[Mountainous Cleavage]

I got this on PS3. Sick, sick game.

[Toe]

I can play a game or two after the Eagles/Giants game.
