Create an NHL Superstar
Back to me being bored, and back to creating a Superstar. We will start as 19 year olds with the highest potential (125). We are going to start as Free Agents shortly before the 08-09 season using the freeware Eastside Hockey Manager (the game that SI bought the rights to and butchered).
We will start as good young talent, and should find our way onto most teams starting line-ups, at least in the second or third lines. Some of you may be lucky enough to play on Line 1 others may miss out completely and find themselves on the bench. You can request trades, new contracts, etc. Which I will explain once it all kicks off. If you don't want to fill out the whole form then just fill out the Part 1 section and the game will automatically create a random set of skills. This is discouraged however if you are anything but a D or G, as the computer won't take into account the type of player you are (see 'Player Type' form question). Part 1 Name: Birth Day/Month: Left/Right Handed: Position: (Left Wing, Right Wing, Center, Defense, Goalie) Player Type: (1 - Sniper (defensive defenceman), 2 - Playmaker (defensive defenceman), 3 - All-around offensive player (defensive defenceman), 4 - Grinder / Power Forward (defensive defenceman), 5 - Two-Way forward (defensive defenceman), 6 - Defensive defenceman (positioning and defensive smarts) (all around forward), 7 - Physical defenceman (all around forward), 8 - Offensive defenceman (all around forward), 9 - Character player (forward or defence), 0 - Goon/Enforcer (forward or defence)) (The terms in brackets are the alternate, so if you are a Forward and you select Offensive defenceman you will be classified as an All around Forward). Click: (Just pick a number between 0-9, if you share the same number as another teammate you will play better together) Nationality: (limited to US, CAN, SWE, FIN, NOR, RUS, CZK or Other) Height: (in feet and inches, between 5 10 and 6 10) Weight: (in pounds, between 150 and 280) Part 2a - Skaters Only (Divide 650 between the following) Shooting: Playmaking: Stickhandling: Checking: Positioning: Hitting: Skating: Endurance: Penalty: Faceoffs: Leadership: Strength: Part 2b - Goalies Only (Divide 650 between the following) Glove: Blocker: Stickhandling: Pads: Angles: Agility: Skating: Endurance: Penalty: Rebounds: Leadership: Strength: |

I'm enjoying following this league and like the fast pace, it'll be fun to see how everyone's careers develops.
After a slow start for the Stars, Kelevra is beginning to make an impact although the Dallas management are obviously going with a goalie tandem with myself and Turco (both started 11 games so far) but I'm happy to be a part of a winning team at this early stage of my career!! |
Could you change my first name to Torin, I think the font ran together and the name became Tom Mayhem instead of Torin Mayhem. Thanks!

Great read so far and a pretty wicked surprise to have all of this waiting this morning.
One question for you in regards to how you're handling the players. When it comes time to sign extensions/become free agents, how will that be handled? Depending on how things are worked there will affect how I'd approach setting my player's status in the mean time. Essentially, how much influence will we have on if our players will sign extensions/test free agency and if they hit free agency, how much control of where they sign? If you're not sure on that yet, no worries as everything so far has been very sweet and I'm very much looking forward to more updates. |
SlowlyDownward - Yes, the more icetime you get, and the better the coach, the more you will improve. In terms of team quality I'm not so sure, I don't believe the game will improve your stats because of the players you are playing with.
Travis - I don't believe I will be able to handle contract negotiations as I won't be notified of any trades/contracts until after they are finalized, but of course, I suppose we do have *some* say in contract negotiations in as much as changing your status to "wants a better contract" as your current deal comes to an end. Free agency is something that I can edit, and will certainly bring it up at least before the end of this 08/09 season. For example, if you are coming to the end of your deal, even though the game will have offered you a new contract, we can choose to either accept or decline the offer, if declined the deal will still be accepted yet at the end of the season I will manually edit your status to an UFA or RFA, depending on how easy or hard we decide to make things. But as I say, we will come to that when it happens as everybody bar 1 is on 3-year deals. December 2008 - Regular Season 1st December 2008 Rookie of the month: Alexei *Picklov* (R) NHL has awarded Alexei *Picklov* (R) of Buffalo Sabres as Rookie Of The Month He registered 8 goals and 9 assists for 17 points in 12 games last month.

Alexei *Picklov* has recently announced his desire to leave the Buffalo Sabres at a recent press conference: "So I'm the 4th best player in the league? And the best in my team (who are sh*t btw).

Wow is the division tight right now. 3 teams tied for 1st with 50 points and the Penguins in 4th are just a point back of that logjam.
Looks like our PK will have to pick up if we want to get any sort of separation. Under 80% is pretty brutal, yikes. |

?! How did Jace go from 39 GP and 54 pts in the last update to 8 GP and 9 pts in this one?
Just did some looking and he scored his 25th goal on 4.1.2009 and then it lists him as getting his first goal on 18.1.2009 |
Hrmm, that is really weird. I may have to look into that. I think the best option is just to retire this player at the end of the season and bring yourself back again for the next, or you can continue on, its up to you. I really don't know what has happened there, that is really annoying.
