2011 NHL Offseason Thread: Capgeek is my new homepage

Online freezes a LOT less than offline, at least for me...

I'm primarily a center by trait and I burned a LOT of my Defensive XP for my Center loadout to max Faceoffs at 99, my wingers are very evenly leveled stats all across the board. I'm not the cherry picker type, I'm really defensively committed (hence the two-way forward selection) so I like to have high body checking, stick checking, defensive awareness, etc.

Only one you don't want to play when you're new Jornna is Goalie, even if you've done Goalie offline in past years' editions. Goalie has an INSANE learning curve in terms of playing skill for online-mode and is much harder to level up and unlock boosts for, stats-wise. Not to mention when you do "Drop In Games" (random games with strangers when your dedicated club team isn't online), every mother fucker on your team is going to bad mouth you after every goal and tell you to quit and go kill yourself, even if it wasn't your fault. The defensemen could both charge the net in the other team's end and give up a 3 on 0 breakaway and god help you "YOU FUCKING SUCCESSFUL HOMOSEXUAL-AMERICAN WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP THAT, A GOALIES JOB IS TO BE BETWEEN THE PUCK AND NET, YOUR MOM SHOULDVE ABORTED YOU."

4-1 Jets mwahahahaha!

Scheifele is a keeper.

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 21:37

Oilers making a comeback in the Minnesota game. Swede line of Paajarvi-Lander-Omark has 2 of their 3 goals.

5-1 Jets!!!

MOTHERFUCKING SCHEIFELE DOES IT AGAIN!!!!

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 21:52

All I'm hearing about is Nugent-Hopkins now, wonder if Hall is going to be salty this year, last year he gets shown up by Eberle making the goal of the year at the start of the season and now there's a new #1 pick in town...

**Deader2818** · 2011-09-20 21:54

Its been going around apparently. Williams missed practice yesterday with it as well.

**bluefan** · 2011-09-20 21:55

CAPTAIN LADD!!!

6-1 wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooot!

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 21:58

If Nugent-Hopkins makes the team this year, Gagner will be traded.
Then I /ragequit and jump ship back to the Habs.

Also, Hall put on 12 pounds heading into camp this year since for once he wasn't playing hockey til mid July. Can't wait to see how he does over a full season.

Though that made me think of this done after Day 1 of the 2010/11 season:

That bit cracked me the hell up last year

**bluefan** · 2011-09-20 22:01

Hahaha, the puck disappeared with 3:37 to go.

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 22:04

Hawks just had a 2.5 minute offensive possession and the Oilers had two broken sticks on the shift and still no goal lol

**bluefan** · 2011-09-20 22:11

Liking how my Jets are looking. Solid play tonight with a bit of rough things to work on, but it's the first pre-season.

6-1. Laid a thrashing on them Jackets tonight @ home.

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 22:13

god whoever this TV crew is, they're retarded, even for students, they keep cutting away from the PP play to show the guy who got the penalty sitting in the box for 20 seconds

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 22:15

EBERLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 22:15

Eberle just schooled the Hawks PK for a shorty, 3-2 Oilers

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 22:17

no clue who Olivier Roy is other than he's not related to Patrick, but he's looking really sharp and having a hell of a game

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 22:19

shoot high glove side on him. He looked like a chump on those during the rookie tourney. Unless maybe he took some shortstop lessons since then. Here's hoping he can keep it up though. Dubnyk/Roy would be an ideal goalie combo

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 22:20

Fucking Ladyboy Smeagle scares me with his terribad own zone play with less than a minute left

**Callisto** · 2011-09-20 22:22

rofl RNH misses an empty netter from the circles and Hawks almost tie it at the end, but they get the ENG with 5s left

the TV presentation was awful but goddamn does it feel good to watch some hockey again

**Richybear** · 2011-09-20 22:26

Minnesota just retook the lead 4-3 in the other Oilers game. From the looks of it, Spurgeon's 2nd goal of the game
