NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007

Click "Offer to All", and see what comes up.

You probably won't get a ton for him...but a second round pick would be good.

[Ruki]

You know who is a dick? Mats Sundin.

First, he wouldn't accept a trade due to his NTC. Then the bastard retires without telling me! Sure, this opens up 7.5mil in cap space, BUT all the good free agents were gone (I got Forsberg thankfully).

Does anybody have a second code they can give to me? I've had the demo and I plan on having my g/f buy me the game for my birthday, along with some of the newer, Adam Ryland games. But I've really wanted to re-play the lastest Eastside hockey manager game, again.

MPH, did you get your code? I know you were interested in paying somebody using paypal.

Is there a way to play the expired demo, over? To hold me over to October.

[Ruki]

1. If you plan on having the girlfriend buy it for you, why ask for a code? Seems like a waste for whoever gives you the code.

2. I believe MPH got his code from Plubby

3. Just re-download the demo if it expired.

But to not make this post useless....

Just won the cup with the Blue Jackets in 2010-11, some big name players: Malkin (unhappy with Penguins, gave him an offer sheet), Crosby (got him while injured, traded Tavares and someone else I would never use), Nash (There from the beginning), Chara (Got him year one to help the D), Bobby Ryan (Got him first year, and he exploded in the last year), Erik Cole (Awesome player, less than a million), Ryan Smyth.

Let's see if this team can repeat! Although I did run into cap issues, so had to trade away Hartnell for two cheap scrubs

Oh yeah, I did get a code from Plubby.

[TGWL]

I didnt want to wait until Oct. I was going to just play the demo over, until oct, but it isnt working for me. Ive redownloaded it, still says trail over.

[Plubby]

You wound me, MPH

Hello. I just downloaded the trial of this and I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice as I don't know anything about hockey.

What team should I start with?

Also what leagues should I load at the beginning?

[Clawson]

NHL is the main league. Upload the AHL with it as it's where the minor league teams are there (basically the reserve team). And for drafting upload the CHL (includes the OHL, QMJHL and WHL) so it's easier to scout them.

[METALMAN]

Okay I've selected them. I'm also going to load the British league because I'm interested to see what teams play in it and stuff. I presume it's pretty shit though. >_>

[Clawson]

So horribly shit that Wade Belak scored 7 goals in it. By the way, the NHL has a salary cap you need to be aware of.

How is it won?

Ohhh shush.

[METALMAN]

Oh yeah I know a little about salary caps and trades and drafts and stuff from my few MLS games on Football Manager. Hope it will be enough. >_>

Still unsure what team to go. Maybe I'll just pick a city I like and hope for the best.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

If you're using the original data, go with Detroit or Philadelphia.

[Clawson]

Just be the Maple Leafs. We still have Sundin in that game so I can't play it anymore or I get teary-eyed due to nostaglia.

[Ruki]

As for a team you want to play....depends: Do you want to build your team from the ground up (Penguins, Blue Jackets, Kings) or start by winning right away (Red Wings, Devils, Flames)?

Edit: Also, let us hear of your progress!

[METALMAN]

I want an easy team. >_>

[Clawson]

Ummm...I think it was Anaheim that won the Cup in 07 but that was because some rookies over-performed. Ottawa would be a good option but they're full of useless assholes.

Go with Detroit I'd think.
