Thread: NHL 11 News

I played HUT for a couple weeks and just found it boring. It was cool that EA added that in the game, but they need to focus on EASHL a little more. I would also like a new cup celebration...something that is actually worth playing a whole season for. The celebration in NHL 2004 was awesome.

fix the short side goals, that's all I really want

LONG LIVE NHL 94!!!

This game absolutely defined my childhood. So many great memories.

Wow what a game I just won tonight. I wish I kept the video of the goal Wayne Simmonds made off the other team's forward LOL

The final score was 1-0 and my buddy could not get a goal even tho he had 1 penalty shot, 7 powerplays and hit 4 posts! Talk about a lot of luck but a real fun game haha.

I'm getting better and really enjoying NHL 11 a lot

teubert and Jones where are they? on the new update i can't find either of them...

I actually still play HUT and am a big fan of the mode.

A couple months ago I decided to just try and create a Kings/Prospects only team.

My favorite line combo was Schenn centering Kozun and Clifford. I boosted Schenn to a 90 Ovr and had Kozun and Clifford both in the low 80's.

Unfortunately after 50 games when everyone needed their contracts renewed and their salaries bloated I had to completely change the team around but man was that fun being able to have a team that consisted of

Brown, Kopitar, Simmonds

Clifford, Schenn, Kozun

Moller, Loktionov, Lewis

Vey, Weal, Toffoli

Hickey, Teubert

Campbell, Voynov

Piskula, Muzzin

Bernier, Jones

The thing that I hate is that goalie ratings have become completely irrelevant. All you ever see are people attempting cross ice one-timers or forehand-backhand-forehand deke that beats the goalie 85% of the time.

The original tuner set they had when the game first came out made it a pain to score a goal but you really had to work and outplay your opponent to earn the goal.

Now it's just who can abuse the system and get as many cheap goals per game as possible to win...

Still though if you play the game right and eliminate those cross ice one-timers you win wayyyyyyyyyyy more than you lose!

I'm about 6-7 games away from 150 games. Sitting at a B+ though.. but legend card here I come! (About time huh?)

I'm at 196 games now... sitting at a B+ overall again for a few games now. All these stupid random OTP games have murdered my grades thanks to stupid human goalies.

I can't recall if I was ever this frustrated about the legend card in NHL 09. (I just remember that I got the Legend card pretty easily in NHL 10.)

yeah, unless you get lucky, OTP is a hard place to add to your grades
