hey! I'm a team player first guy ;) Just ask Jmac

Of course not Ken. I don't take jabs at anyone. You and Yatli are great to play with as well. I'm referring to playing drop in with randoms where everyone just cherry picks and skates to the blue line tapping their sticks, expecting to get a pass. I hate playing with those types of people because they're selfish and all about themselves. Hockey is a team game and I like to involve all the players on the ice. You'll see me pass back to the point alot if the dman is open, even if it's a cpu controlled dman because we can rush the net and get deflection goals. I could care less if I score or get assists, I just want to win. If I can do something other than scoring or getting points like block shots, taking the puck away from the offensive player or neutralize the offensive attack, I'm happy with that. I'm all about the teamwork. If I had anything to say to anyone. I would openly say it like I did earlier when I was addressing you :D. I would expect the same treatment if you had anything to say to me as well. We're all here to have fun and win games. If there's anything that you feel that I could do better to help out the team, please let me know :awwyeah:

Wow so many guys on the rs team

And most are minus players

Good games tonight. I've never played with a full roster before haha, that was quite the experience. We played some pretty tough teams. Even though we lost, I had tons of fun.

Well, most of us are self-admitted noobs playing in our first year in the EASHL :P We also don't play all day (most of the teams we play now have 1000+ games), which means we also don't have Legend 3s with +5s and +8s from boosts that the other teams have.

I'm not too worried about it since we are slowly but surely improving and we're having fun in most games.

We need to get mics and have practices :P

Mini Kangaroo and I have mics, does anyone else?

No mic here :( though i'm sure it would help us alot as the teams that "killed" us last night all had mics lol..

It was fun last night though..i think it's the first time it was a full team

First time I've ever played with a full team :awwyeah:

It's pretty crazy how some teams we played has players with 1000+ games played!! LOL.... what a bunch of nerds lol..

Too much time on their hands or no life :lol

pretty demoralized with yesterdays spanking

Yeah but we can't control that especially when the players are all boosted. I didn't even know about boosting until yesterday. I was like these guys are way faster, can easily hit us and overall are killing our players. I managed to get a goal so it wasn't a shutout :pokerface:

Newb question but what is booost. Is that an addon for $ or Jus levels.

Did they finally figure out a boost for 12?
I knew about 11

Boosting gives your player extra abilities like speed, acceleration, checking, shot power etc... Boosts can be purchased using $ but if you play enough games, some of the boosts unlock as well so you can get them either way. There's boosts like +5 speed, that's why some players skate way faster than others. Right now all my boosts are only +1 with the exception of +3 for stick checking.
I don't believe in paying $ to boost, I'll earn them by playing games.

Oh ok
That's what you meant ....

No one's ever going to get the Speed boosts playing on our team, haha ... Need +100 Plus/Minus in club.

I bought the +5 and +3 Speed boosts a while ago. Everything else I'm just working for.

Best way to unlock the boosts is to just keep playing online OTP or Club games.

Don't bother with the single player ways of unlocking.

This way you actually playing for fun online while unlocking your attribute cards AND boosts. Before you know it you'll have unlocked a ton of stuff.

You can only unlock boosts in club.

haha damn, I didn't know that. Oh well. I'm just going to keep playing and whatever boosts come, that's just a plus :D

I just wish EA could match us with teams that are on par with us (similar skill level) and not teams who have players with 3k points. Its ridiculous how they pair match ups.

totally agree

Just finished up a game with skead. 3 goals 3 assists baby! We won but our goalie let in some pretty weak goals.

Here's a tip for defencemens:

When playing the front of the net and trying to take away that cross-crease pass, don't be using the poke-check nor block shot buttons. Instead, just stand there in front of your opponent and hold LT(L1) so that you player is always facing the puck. When the pass is made, your player should intercept it automatically and have immediate possession of the puck.

It's probably the highest % play to make.

Having good stats doesn't hurt either. 99 defensive awareness is a must have for dmen!

my personal fav stat: GP 17, HITS 122
