    NHL 10: EASHL General Manager Advice and Insights

    When someone enters the online team play lobby in NHL 10, there are often members filling the chat board with listings about their clubs.

    "WILL ANYONE JOIN MY CLUB? PLEASE!"
    "CLUB RECRUITING: NEED C, LW, RW, D AND GOALIE!"
    "C/LW LOOKING FOR TOP 10 CLUB!"


    One might even put the time and effort into participating with one of these clubs -- only to find out later the general manager has failed at his job. In other words, teammates are never online and the turnover rate for members of the club is higher than that at your local McDonalds or Tim Hortons. You are 9-38 this month and your team cannot catch a break.

    What do you do now?

    Finding a good team is not that hard. It's finding good people. I must say the video game community can be the worst collection of people you will run into sometimes. Mainly because of this invincibility they feel behind the screen feeling they can say what they want and do what the want without consequences. This is even more so in the NHL and NBA games communities for some reason.

    In my experience I found finding a good team (winning record with maturity) is mostly just luck. Some really good teams that I have joined were either from displaying great skill in a Club / Online team play game that participants remember, or just word of mouth from others and friends. However if you play great at your spot on a consistent level people will recognize you.

    The problem I find when looking for a good team is maturity level of the participants since a lot of the people you are gonna meet online are young, immature and 95% of the time hate everyone different from them. Finding a mature team is the real tough part.

    Usually I just ignore the idiocy of my teammates and say nothing while I enjoy the game. Arguing with idiots is a waste of time even if they are your friends or teammates.

      Well said, both of you.

      But I have to say, I had never though of using Skype to communicate in NHL10. I might have to try that with my club. Thanks for the writeup!

        Best way to build a team is to start with friends then look to friends of friends.

        You never know what you're gonna' get when you start bringing in randoms.

          I've been fortunate while playing NHL 10 to meet some real chill guys. We play great together like we can read each others minds.
