Re: The New Be-A-GM Brain

Did they mention anything about draft booms and busts? I'd like to see some first round draft picks not live up to their potential and some late-round draft picks become NHL superstars.

Basically is potential guaranteed?

I hope not! Nothing worse than seeing a potential rating being set in stone. Potential should be a fluid rating, since after all, it's a subjective opinion. Solid statistical production should increase a potential rating, while poorer play should decrease it.

One other thing, and again not to make too many comparisons between hockey and football, but in NFL Head Coach 09, player ratings were not universal from team to team, but based on a team's "system". Since I'm a BAP player, can someone tell me if, in NHL12, a player signs with another team or gets traded, do his ratings change? Do teams value different player abilities differently?

This should also be taken into account, since, for example, some teams might overvalue speed vs strength, or youth vs veterans.

Re: The New Be-A-GM Brain

Guarantee on day 1, someone will find a trade that'd never happen in real life lol.

Leafs trade Connolly and Lombardi for a 2nd round draft pick lol!


But really seems like alot of changes went into NHL13, haven't seen this many changes going into NHL games in awhile. From improving gm brain stuff, to the gm connected mode, to really fixing up gameplay. Seems like they did alot more.

Great questions, Gagnon!

About the potential...I was wondering about this too. I'd prefer the potential to be a fairly close indicator, but not set in stone. By what I was reading, I was getting at least the impression that the potential is the potential. Hope I'm misunderstanding things.

And yeah...gems/busts in the draft would be great.

Lots of great points here, Goalie!

Agree completely about the potential.

And would be pleasantly surprised if the "Systems" added for NHL '13' did cause player ratings to vary from system to system. That would imo be a very cool detailed addition to the game.
