you'll have to get x-box live, or give me your name if you do have it, so I can kick your ass at NHL 13. I gave you a year to catch up.
I'm afraid of you. Got back playing 12 recently after a long hiatus, damn I'm rusty. Besides, owning the CPU is one thing, playing against a veteran human (or a walnut, whatever) is another...
But yeah, definitely.

I love the Detroit Red Wings style of hockey. Puck possession and cycling, shots from the point. And I'm deadly off the rush.

Can't wait.
And now I'm scared even more. Puck possession and cycling are the things I'm the worst at. My thumbs are two sad and rotten woodsticks.
I play the French way: shoot the stuffed motherfucker from the worst possible positions and hope for the best (aka: a glitch).
I had a friend who thought he was good at the NHL games til
he played me and lost a few times pretty badly. Then he started doing those damn half slap shots from the top of the circle off the rush. He'd come in, wait for my d-men to screen the goalie, wind up the shot, the goalie drops to his knees, and then he'd shoot and it would go in 9 times out of 10. Drove me crazy. But I've learned ways around it. I'd like to think my defensive game is pretty good too. Man, all this talk I gotta go play some 12 now.
Lol, and I thought I was clever to use this strategy from time to time (when I manage to properly do it...) I need to improve before we play, getting my butt lashed is fine, but having to pay for it would be utterly humiliating.
Ah, but let's not jack this "How shitty do you feel today?" thread. Please guys, proceed.
