I am interest too. If Gibson doesn't want to be captain anymore, then I should take Winnipeg captain role.

Perhaps it might be an idea to wait until after the summer and I'll see if people are interested in continuing this.

Hehe :D

I'd love to get this game started again but it seemed interest really waned in it. I'd love to hear suggestions on how to make this game more involving/interesting. :thup:

No, it's something Archie made in Excel. Pretty cool, even though my team sucked on defense and didn't help me to shut the goal. :-p

I can have fun with this. I can offer graphics using a modded NHL06.

Simply popping in the teams and taking generic shots of game action could add the eye candy people with low attention spans can apprciate...

I think the introduction of one or two extra player settings (or maybe a team setting) in addition to the attacking/balanced/defensive mentality setting. It would give a little more variety at least.

An alternative could be to scrap the whole thing and may set something up using something like EHM freeware. Depends on how much work it would be as my EHM/TBL time is now quite limited...

Just some ideas to get some discussion going. :-k
