NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007

How much does this game cost now? I really want to buy it but I've got no credit card.

[Ruki]

Pretty sure it is still $30-40.

And it sucks, because the Network games don't work, so you can't play online games. It's no fun beating the AI over and over

Right so I went Red Wings as suggested. Signed some ancient winger who is awesome despite his age, kept the rest of the team much the same because I'm not too sure who is good and who is bad yet - my knowledge of ice hockey is limited to NHL 2002.

Had a really good preseason - won 3 games and drew 1. Also had a good start to the season by winning my first three games. Unfortunately my goalkeeper who was doing really well got injured for four months and his replacement was hopeless. I immediately went from winning games to losing 11-0 to San Jose. It didn't take long to get sacked.

Still fun though! I will try again tomorrow...

Five bucks says the winger in question was Luc Robitaille.

[Cactus Drags]

Red Wings? Ewwwwwwwwwww.

Can't believe it'd be that expensive though, I found a copy of '05 for about £3. And when I say found, I mean it was buried at the bottom of a box of random shite, it's not even listed as stock.

[Ruki]

...wait....you can get fired?

[METALMAN]

well I didn't get fired in truth but the board were really angry at me so I figured I might as well resign cause i felt it was coming soon. >_>

can you not get fired?

[Plubby]

Was it a “The Board of Directors are very unhappy with the 11-0 loss” thing? You can take a few of those before you get fired...

[EddieG]

Ruki's trying to imply he's so good at the game he's never gotten close to being fired.

nah it was in the board confidence bit after my november from hell where I didn't win once.

started a new game as atlanta now...

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

That's not going to end well.

[METALMAN]

It's going a lot better than Red Wings! I'm 4-3-0 right now. I have this guy called Kovalchuk or something. He's awesome.

[Ruki]

That too. But I honestly didn't know.

Yes.

Yes he is.

Did 2 tries on the current season and couldn't once have a winning season with Rangers. This game must be broken. My evidence: Drury scored 60 points on the season.

Do you guys know if its possible to change the starting date somehow?

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Everything I've read indicates it's not possible to change the starting date, which is why I've been playing around as the 06-07 Leafs. Lost my first five regular season games.

[Ruki]

The only thing I've managed to find is a way to raise the salary cap. I just wish the game did it by itself each year (or lower it).

And I know you can't do Network games, but would Direct IP work?

Edit: Nope...fuck, want to play online Is there any other decent hockey sims out there?

[Ruki]

So, this thread made me start up a new game as the Leafs. I managed to get Richards from the Flyers, and he is doing awesome on the team. And it looks like Sundin is willing to take an almost 2 million pay cut for the next season!
