I might blow your mind for just the second time within an hour, but it's coming. The guys that are responsible for the AWESOME baseball manager sim "Out of the Park Baseball" are coming out with a hockey sim this fall/winter. It'll be the first PC NHL hockey manager since EHM 2007, and it will be glorious. and realistic. and massive.

They've promised features like dynasties where you start with the original 6 teams in the 50's and then go through expansions etc however you want, or set up your own divisions, etcetcetc. Out of the Park baseball is one of the best sports management sims out there, so I'm sure their hockey sim will be just as great.

Both sides are at fault in this thing, but players trying to tug at the heart strings of guys who make around 30,000 a year and still pay 100 bucks for a fucking ticket to see a 2.5-hour game borders on idiocy.

Really? Oh wow that's awesome. I was actually on Steam a few weeks back looking at Football Manager and debating buying it despite knowing almost nothing about the sport just because a nice managerial sim seemed like a great idea.

I remember the Sony rep knew that I was a big NHL fan. Tried to sell me on the Wayne Gretzky game for PSP. :jnc

A friend of mine had that. Looked kind of cool on the PSP.

NHL 07 (EA) for PSP was probably worse. I got it for free, and it was a pile of garbage.

Dunno who follows the CFL here, but it's so fucking weird seeing Jon Cornish leading the league in rushing. I played football with him for three years and knew him pretty well. He was a pleasant nerd that got (mostly jokingly) pushed around by the other guys and IIRC was our third-string tailback to begin with. Now he seems to be the face of the CFL for TSN, doing interviews and promos. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I swear its his brains that have brought him this far and he could keep getting better.

In other words: "feels good man."

Always feels good seeing a genuinely nice guy get his dues. I've probably seen him on TSN, just haven't paid attention.

Didn't realize it required any special knowledge apart from knowing what "CFL" stands for.

And yeah, I don't follow the CFL either. But the guy's getting a lot of exposure on TSN these days.

I'm gonna be honest. I only read the first 5 words of your post before replying.

It might be a big day later today. 5pm EST is the deadline for any contracts to be made under the current CBA.

We could potentially see a gluttony of signings for the remaining RFAs and players in their contract year.

I was a PC only gamer back in the day, never touched a console til much later. You haven't played hockey til you played with a keyboard (or a joystick) hehe.

I played Wayne Gretzky Hockey, just looked it up and saw that Bethesda made it back in the day (I'd hate to play a PS3 version if they still made it).

I think they made a Hockey League Simulator back in the day as well.

Thought it was the 15th? Is it looking like no season at least for a bit?

Geez, how many Canadian athletes did you grow up around?

Wherever you grew up must produce them like crazy.

I'm not a big football guy, but I don't mind it. I try to like the CFL for Canadian pride, and I'll watch the Grey Cup, but I just can't turn into a consistent fan for one reason. I hate how MASSIVE the field is :( edit: and I completely forgot about the Jon Cornish portion. lol. He does seem like a nice guy from what I've seen on TSN/Sportsnet, so good on him.
