1st NHL 360 League signups!

So...anyone wanna beat down the old man tonight?

Ooohhhhhh! OH! OH! ME! ME! What time?

I'll likely be around for anyone I haven't yet played. Which is few, admittedly. I'm going to be waiting for like 3 months for the playoffs, if by some miracle I make the playoffs. Which is unlikely. Very unlikely.

I was trolling for a leahue game, but if one cannot be had you may beat me at 9 EST.

I'll be wearing my old-time jerseys, the ones that helped me tie you halfway through the 3rd as opposed to the usual 6-2 drubbing you usually give me!

I'm OK with increasing the goalie skill, just as long as we're not cranking it and making it go too far the other way.

Funny that the blocker side is supposedly weak - Liquid observed me going glove side on Turco all game when we played (just happened that way - I was usually going forehand side for the shooter, but after he said it I did backhand a goal glove side on Turco)

My goaltending's been fairly good, as noted by Garon leading the league in the goaltending categories. A very welcome change from the other league where he was dead last!

Swamp Swamp, I'm here for league play.

Hoo.

What a night. 1-4 loss to Legion. 2-6 loss to Legion. 3-4 loss to Frankie.

Good games to both of you, I had fun despite the losses. Again, I think I played well but just came up short.

Now the challenge is to win 1 game before the end of the season.

I'll reiterate my p[referrence for the old style league play, or maybe only the ability to play 2 games ahead or something. This seems more like a tournament than a season. No looking ahead, or talk of upcoming games, just playing whoever you catch online that you still have games with.

Legion is on a rampage tonight! We played our game and he pulled out a tight 3 - 2 win in regulation. He's much improved, I dare say. Really great having exciting close games though, tons of fun!

I SKOOLD HIM

Actually, Swampy and Certis have definitely taken my team back down to earth, after I scored 7 or 8 goals in each of my first 3 games. Certis especially made me have to slow down at times and set things up with a bit more patience.

He took a club up against Frolov's head one too many though, Frolov bit back!

I see that point of view, but I do like getting games in instead of sitting around and waiting for Mr. Green.

I like the idea of limiting how far ahead you can go as a compromise for next league, is that an option?

I dunno, Hopefully.

PollyPockets, what say ye?

Poly and Greenie We still need to play our League game(s). I have 1 vs. Dallas and 2 vs the Senators to play. Any chance you'll be on MONDAY night? I can be on anytime > 8 EST.

You guys have the chance to keep me winless for the entire SEASON!!

I'm not sure Swampy, it's election day in Canada... Anyway, look for me after 10pm Eastern...

So f***ing what? You running for office or something?!?

Look buddy, if I have one chance to avoid a winless season, and that chance is named Mr. Green. Don't you rob me of that!

See you at 10, Mr. President!

Geez Swampy, when I made that poll on the league site, I even voted you to win 3 games. Now you're going to prove me as having OVERESTIMATED?

Prime Minister, that is.

Well, Green and I played last night. I was up 1 - 0 with a little leaft in the first period, when we had a disconnect Green got awarded the win. We decided to play our game off-line and he beat me in OT 7-6. We both played well, I think it could have gone either way, but alas, I am still winless. So Poly, you don't need to change the result.

Poly, you are next on my hit parade. My last 2 chances to avoid a winless season lie with Dallas. When can you play?

Yeah that was one hell of a game bud. I wanted to see you die at times, no really!

But in the end our friendship remains unscathed. I love you when you lose. No need to talk about the second game.

Yeah, you were definately more talkative when you had the lead.

And sitting through the replay of your game winner in OT those 10 times was just great, really.

C**k.

Gee I did that for you. I thought you might learn a thing or two by watching such a beautiful goal!

Play more damn games, Green! Everyone else has played at least 5 games. And you need to hurry up and lose, because there's only room for one undefeated team.

Poly MIA or what?

Sorry, been caught up in a mixture of job seeking, interviewing, working, playing too much X3, and the joy of dealing with a twice broken-into car. I was on a bit this weekend but didnt see anyone I needed to play. Ill try again this coming weekend. I have an interview in LA tomorrow, already called in sick to work so maybe I can sneak a game or two in when I get back (not sure of times yet)

Np, we have time, Green opnly has like 3 games played. If not this weekend, maybe we can schedule for Monday and Tuesday nights next week. We have two games.

Sorry about your car. And good luck with the job hunting!!!

I hate my car anyways

And 4!

I've won against Psycho. Again. Something's not right...

Certis? Legion? Could you bring me back to earth please? How about tonight around 10? Eastern. Punks!

Now I must kill myself in shame. Seriously Green. I demand to know who you have playing your games for you.

Certis? Legion? Could you bring me back to earth please? How about tonight around 10? Eastern. Punks!

I invited you to chat last night so we could play, I thought you ignored me due to pant wetting.

Well it could have been that, but I never saw your invite son. Maybe I was too busy scoring goals on Psycho? The crowd was very loud...

Well. For starters, I've actually been playing the damn game a little more and I think I am starting to adapt to the style of sloooooow/individual play your @%/&*! settings require, and as long as I win, I like it! My offense got a lot better and I'm playing a little less like a headless chicken on defense. A little less.

Or maybe it's just the fact that I haven't played decent players yet? Oh snap!

I'm comin' Green, to beat you down faster than you can yell, "buuuuuuut!"

Tough talk from a man who needed overtime to beat me.
