Nice to see me play my first NHL game (boy, I'm glad my rights were traded away from the Caps :D). A rating of 6 is a good start. What gall I have instigating a fight in my NHL debut game :cool: :fight:

Hopefully a season in the AHL will give me the development I need to break into the NHL.

Nick - do you write out all those stats by hand?! How long does it take for you to research and post an update?

All by hand, I'm doing another update now so I'll find out how long it takes me. The thing that takes the longest is typing out all of the teams who are interested in everyone, the updates before the drafts were the worse with the whole of the NHL wanting everyone!

Would putting three letter abbreviations for the NHL teams help?

Jeepers that does take quite some time! Though having said that, running most the competitions on the forums take that sort of length of time.

Sorry, but the FI column is simply fights, not fights instigated ;)

So I am an Islander now. :-k

Grand Rapids:Played 18 games with 13 goals, 13 assists, +1, 2 PIMs and a rating of 6.25
Bridgeport:Played 4 games with 1 goal, 2 assists, +1, 2 PIMs and an average rating of 6.25
With pretty low ratings I manage to get a lot of points.

So I'm alone as the only TBLer on Detroit now?

And I know the starting teams post says I'm on Detroit, but the player screen shot showed my in Grand Rapids...so which team am I on right now? I'm hoping it's the Wings, cause those would be kinda sucky numbers for the A.

Something happened to Calv alright. The little Englishman with the man crush on Tony Hand has finished his exams. So he has been partying for 6 days straight. I bet his head hurts. :-D
