Would’ve been gross for us though. Curious to get everyone’s take on this. Kinda pains me to even ask....but, let’s say Henrik got traded to any other team except Philly or Boston, would you be upset if he won a cup or would any part of you root for him to win it? Like I said, if he was on any other team other than the Rangers, Philly or Boston. Just curious, that is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got about as much chance at winning a Cup (at least as a starter) as Cory Schneider at this point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He celebrated on our ice in 08, I don't ever want to see him win a cup, he can go fvck himself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably why the numbers are so out-of-whack. I think if you play the game in what should be the normal mode, the seconds count down twice as fast...I think 20 minutes per period = 10 minutes of actual in-game playtime. Think that's always been the "sweet spot" with the EA NHL games, in terms of getting final numbers that feel much more in line with what you'd see in an actual NHL game. If 20 minutes per period is equal to 20 minutes of playtime, that would definitely account for what appears to be more than double what you'd expect to see in an NHL game. They look pretty cheesy and primitive now...not that they were ever all that cool (they always seemed kinda out of place), but it's amazing what 25 years can do...I see them now and think "Yikes, that was so 90s." Not sure as I could only stand a couple minutes before turning it off. I believe it was a full 20 minutes but with the difficulty leave on easy. It was less of an actual simulation and more watching 2 kids play NHL20 with the Devils winning all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct which is why Cory has ‘100 save’ games in these sims, they opted for real time over realistic sim Edited April 1, 2020 by NJDevs4978 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we lost in 5 but they should really show a game 5 & game 6 marathon. This wasn't 2003 game 7 against the Ducks where there were like 4 combined scoring chances all game. These two games were fairly wide open and this was just an unbelievable goal-tending display by both Brodeur and Belfour. I think this was literally the high point of Brodeur's career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game 5 was maybe the best goaltending duel I’ve ever seen, and then they both just continued the clinic in game 6. Absolutely fantastic performances by Marty and Belfour.
