I've just had this cracking game on 2k6:

Edm 6 @ 7so Phi (me)

P1
01:17 - Edm 1 @ 0 Phi
02:08 - Edm 2 @ 0 Phi
03:08 - Edm 3 @ 0 Phi
11:07 - Edm 3 @ 1 Phi
17:13 - Edm 3 @ 2 Phi
19:24 - Edm 4 @ 2 Phi

P2
00:55 - Edm 5 @ 2 Phi
10:48 - Edm 5 @ 3 Phi
18:15 - Edm 6 @ 3 Phi

P3
01:10 - Edm 6 @ 4 Phi
10:47 - Edm 6 @ 5 Phi
11:29 - Edm 6 @ 6 Phi

I won 2-0 in the shootout, having played a period of OT. :joy:

That's what makes 2k6 better than EA's poor offerings. You can really get imersed in the thrilling contests, unlike EAs 'oh I scored again-great :roll:' routine.

Right, Max Drive should be here tomorrow I reckon. I am going to create those rookies you asked for. I'll check EHM stats for Josh Harding-and I have a converter that changed stats from Football Manager (1-20) to Pro Evo 5 (1-100) which will also help me to judge.
Above all I hope that it saves you guys time and that you enjoy using it. Please give me feedback and constructive criticism-I will change big errors/ missed players if you tell me about it. After all, I want it to be the best rosters out there for PAL users.

Been a few years(2+) since I've purchased an EA NHL or even Madden game. How is the franchise play in these newer versions? Or after EHM do I even need to bother?

I got NHL 05 cheaply a few months ago and have found that to be terrible, which then put me off even thinking of getting 06. Unless someone says there is considerable improvement in this 07 game I doubt I'll be getting this either. They even took out player editing(in 05) which was always a laugh, so I hope they put that back in. My Bro's been converting me to NHL 2k6 on his X-Box but unless they release that on PC I won't be able to play that come the end of summer.. Ah well EHM 2007 it is then...not a bad thing tho!
