So I'm going to try something different. I am going to pick 1 game per week (in game calendar week) and designate that the Game of the Week which is what I'll play and record/upload. I'll sim all the others. Then on Saturday mornings at 9 or 10AM PT I'll live stream games for an hour or so.

Scoring Summary FIRST PERIOD LAK W. Mitchell (J. Carter, A. Kopitar) THIRD PERIOD LAK M. Richards (J. Williams, A. Martinez) LAK A. Kopitar (EN) (J. Carter, M. Greene)

This weeks featured game of the week saw the visiting Nashville Predators (4-2) come in to face the Los Angeles Kings (4-1). The first period saw a lot of back and forth action but the only goal scored came by Willie Mitchell of the Kings who blasted a slapshot from the point to put the Kings up 1-0. Mitchell actually broke his stick on the shot and its surprising that he was able to get enough on the shot to beat the red hot Rinne.

The Second period saw more of the same and no goals were allowed in by either goalie. Quick and Rinne sure looked on their "A" game today.

The Third Period saw the Kings pull away with the game as they netted 2 goals, albeit one an empty netter. The Kings goal that put the game out of reach came from Mike Richards on a beautiful passing play by the Kings players. Anze Kopitar ended up with the empty netter to give the Kings a 3-0 win and extend their record to 5-1.

Only slight tweaks. I started with All-Star Hardcore but moved faceoffs to 1 click above the middle, Pass Assistance 2 clicks up from 0 and pass accuracy for HUM to max.
