Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

He isn't playing ehm 2007 he's actually playing the original game without player that are "untouchable." But I know what you mean Crosby will never be traded (or Lecavlier for that matter) because of players that are untouchable.

Oh, Lecavalier isn't untouchable. Tampa is willing to trade him, but it'd cost a lot to get him.

Could you post your lines with the new players?
The first game was close, the second game you played against the #1 in the east, so winning could be difficult, and you scored more even strength goals anyway. The third game, I dunno, your D just wasn't there I guess. Well it puts you in a better position for the lottery.

Yeah, for sure, I have them made, just forgot to post them on here.

Note: All lines are getting the same amount of playing time.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

You are playing like the Coyotes this year, decent first half, then totally tanks the second.
I think you need some help on the PK, as a lot of the goals they score are when your guys are in the box.
You really need that D-man now, you're getting out shot by a decent margin each game.

Great comparison actually. Yeah, we do need some PK help and yes, yes we do need a solid D-man. So guess who we're probably looking to draft especially considering we have nothing really hopeful in the AHL.

Maybe you could pull a Slather and sign a pile of free agents.
Jay Bouwmeester would be sick next to Streit.

I think he is playing EHM 2007 with the Lidas 2008/2009 rosters. But I could be wrong.

And you are wrong, 'tis the original EHM. Never got EHM 2007 because I wasn't old enough to have a credit card at the time haha and now it just seems overpriced for a game that's 3 years old.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Nice win over Toronto, a shutout too. That's probably a good confidence boost to you team.
Ottawa finally got a decent goalie, I see (Dan Cloutier).

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Good job so far. Tough first season though. Where do you rank for the draft? Do you have the top pick? I might have missed this in an earlier post but do you have Tavares, Hedman, etc in the draft class?

[derrickthomas58]

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

This dynasty is going to get me back playing EHM, I just know it. I just downloaded the 2008-09 rosters to have a peek. Curse you crayzman!!!!!!
