    Roster update is here

    And it's awesome. Loving the cheese element that Kovalchuk brings to the Devils.

    The devils lineup though is messed up.

    Kovy is on the point on the PP for both defenses.

    There was one point in a game I was playing where he was on for 6mins straight because the guy kept taking penalties.

    The flyers might have the most balanced 3 lines now and I've found with all the little boosts Tampa bay got they are fun to play with.

    People still keep playing with chicago/pitts all day against me though and its getting hella annoying.

    Leafs offseason training!

      Yeah I get sick of playing the Pens and Sharks all the time. I noticed that about Kovy on the point too, getting annoying that he stays out there so long. I'll have to check out Tampa tonight.

      I've been getting some good games out of the Rangers lately, love playing with them for some reason.

        I've been playing as the Bolts, Kings, Flyers and Caps lately.

        I've started to just straight out quit on guys before games if:

        They have more then 1 player, spend any time adjusting line ups, choose the pens.

        Works for me most of the time.

          I've been getting DNF Wins out of the ass lately. i had a nice 7-game win streak the other night, all because dudes quit after getting down a goal. Works for me. The Kings are fun to use, bout to give the Bolts another shot.

            Yeah I normally quit as well against guys who are the pens or sharks unless I myself feel like being one of them. But lately I either play as the Kings, who are tons of fun to play with or tampa.
            All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

            "rammer" and "cummings"

            The NHL series is a giver, Madden takes the load.

              I just got shut out 2-0 as the Kings playing vs. the Canucks. I wasn't really paying much attention as I was reading some shit online but playing against Vancouver is getting pretty old as well.

                That is where you just start quiting when they pick certain teams. I don't get Vancouver a lot, I get mostly the Hawks or Pens. I'd say

                40% Hawks
                30% Pens
                15% Sharks
                8% Canadiens
                7% Other teams

                  I guess PS3 is different, I barely ever see the Habs, except when I choose to play with them. It's almost always the Pens, Sharks and Canucks. I think that most of the time it's because they are newbs and want to coast on defense with the help of a great goalie.

                    Yeah it sucks how nobody wants to play the Sharks.

                    I pretty much only play with them but it can sometimes take me 5-10 tries to get a guy to play me.

                      They're so good though it's really frustrating to play vs. them.

                        Same here. Its pretty crazy what a half decent goaltender will do for you.

                          yeah, i don't mind playing with other teams if my opponent wants me to or is using a team that is clearly inferior.

                          but everyone seems to play with the devils, pens, blackhawks, or canucks anyway.

                          i've been playing a lot of USA Vs. Canada lately which has been fun, especially when i win.
