Gross.
I know, I know! But that's how I roll in sports games--if I can't play Detroit, I go Chicago.
EDIT: Just so that I make sure to preorder the right copy...Are we on 360 or PS3?
360
There are people who play games on their Blu-ray players?!
Guys, upon further reflection, I am simply not good enough at this game to make a meaningful contribution. I think I will wait for FIFA 13, at which time I will take all comers.
Vancouver is available again....
Enjoy. The game and the new skating mechanic are fun. I just am too old to do cool things badly in public.

Goddamnit, Edgar, yes you are. This isn't about beating people, it's about getting better and having fun. Unless your opponent plays with the Habs in which case embarrass him and remind him how little Kaberle does for him.
Don't drop it, I implore you. Hell, I'll scrimmage with you and we can work on it. It'll be fun!
You should reconsider. Several of us have confessed to being old and uncoordinated (and basically sucking) when it comes to the game.

No joke. I've played the 13 demo probably a dozen times. I have scored exactly once. On top of that, I wasn't even actually trying to score.
Ok, I am in. Vancouver.

Nobody likes Canuckleheads, Ed.
Geez, we just got him back in the league. Go easy.
HUT trailer was...intriguing and confusing. I've never played the Ultimate Team mode in any of the EA Sports games. Not sure I completely understand the concept. Is this an online, human v. human mode or can you play against the AI?
Turns out I also cannot score in shootouts.

Pro-tip: no one can.

Unless the goalie is controlled by a human

Ha! That's awesome! I just sold mine on Thursday night! EA NHL games have been far superior for on XBOX the last 5 years. Online play on PS3 only uses 1 server. Brutal!
Can't wait for a Northwest division rivalry Edgar!!!

It's both. You can pick up and play both AI and online. And the same goes for HUT tourneys, both on and offline.
Every time you finish a game you'll get "pucks" which is in game currency to buy packs of cards or buy single cards at the auction house.
Or you can just make it easier and buy card packs.

Pfft.
I'm having the most difficult time getting the ea sports season pass. I get "not available" on the downloads. Is there a magic trick to make it work so I can give EA my money?
So we're 7 days away, anyone interested in taking on the role as the Commish?
Oh, and the use of Jarri Kurri in HUT = 1 very happy Oiler fan. (He's been my favorite player since I can remember watching the Oilers with my Dad)
Long live #17!!!
Watching the clips and replaying game 5 of Kings vs Phoenix in OT was awesome. Gave me goosebumps again. But this time Kopitar scored.
Now I have to get XBox Live again.
I think playing with our HUT teams would be a hoot.
Heck yeah--I loved playing HUT games last season. Makes the games more interesting without having all of the stars on a team
I don't mind running the league if need be. I play more OTP than anything.
Three days from Early release!
I'd love to give EA some money to get in on the early release but still can't

This is God's way of telling you that the business model is evil and you shouldn't give them your money for three measly Goddamned days.
