For the reason I've had hope in Hockey Video games. And why I like NHL 2KX for a few years was the Online Leagues feature. Problem is they rarely took off.
Now, EA Sports, NHL 08 Will have online leagues. Was wondering if anyone here would be interested. For XBOX 360.
Let me know 1) That you're interested 2) What team you will want 3) Your Gamertag
I'll probably be taking Minny. As I consider it a crime not to play with Gaborik.
The game is due to be released middle of Next week. But I wouldn't look to start something like this till 1-2 weeks after it's released.
Lemme know.

I would be interested... My 360 should be back any day now. I had 3 flashing red lights for months and only returned it 3 or 4 weeks ago after MS extended the warranty.
I will take Pittsburgh.

I'd be interested, but since i don't have a XBox guess i'll have to pass.

I have the 3 red ring lights too but cannot find my 306 receipt... What to do?

if you can't find the receipt try contacting Microsoft directly, I'm sure they've dealt with it before. Also if you paid with it on credit card, you might be able to get a receipt.
I'm speaking out my #%@# here, but that's what I'd do.

I'm not sure whether I needed a receipt the first time I sent the damn thing back... I know that I didn't have a receipt the second time I sent it back. Third time's a charm, right?!

I would be game but XBOX still has yet to send me the box to mail it back to them for these 3 red lights... and I cannot really afford XBOX live....

If he has, I will take the Wings I took the Sens to compensate for my suckitude....Oilers are all yours. As for Ken...the year is about $120 bucks....or 13 months I guess. A bit pricey for gaming...but the online stuff is very cool. Although yesterday it was tough to get on....is there server problems and the such?

I'm looking to start it soon, and have a handful of people interested between the BRHL and BRHL2. Best thing for anyone to do who hasn't told me already is to let me know what team you'd like and your Gamertag. Team: GamerTag: As far as absences. In PC Online leagues I've been in the past they give the commish the option to sim or wait for teams to play. I'm flexible as most of you guys know, so this isn't going to be a hardcore 10 games a week league. More or less a gathering where we can all have fun and lose to me. TAKEN TEAMS WEST: Minnesota - Yours Truly Anaheim Colorado Calgary Vancouver - Rob Botham Edmonton - Cal (sorry, didn't see the message till now) EAST: NYRangers Pittsburgh - Rob Ives Boston / LA (Alex, you decide yet? ) Ottawa - George The rest are filled out by BRHL2 GMs

When I get my 360 back and IF my finances show I can afford to play online... I might be interested.. but I JUST took my 360 to Purolator to send out so it won't be back for a while I assume... *sigh*

Just let me know when we are going to be starting, I have not signed on to live yet. I will probably do it by the weekend but if we are starting sooner just let me know.

5 guys now, we have started. Rob and I have already played the first game. I thought it would make a schedule and keep track of scoring leaders but I guess not.
Anyway, it was fun.

I wish we could edit the lines. Hemsky is my top line C. I don't think I won a face-off with him. Torres/Hemsky/Penner just doesnt make sense and then I have two of the top face off guys in the NHL in Stoll and Horcoff both on the 2nd line.

You can. After you select your uniform it brings up an edit lines screen.

OK, so whats the point of having the league again? I realise not everyone is gonna have time to play all the time, but if you are online and are gonna play then play the league games or dont bother joining. We are not gonna be online at the same time very much, so when you are play the league games or we are never gonna get this done. If you cannot play then send a message if you cant. Two GMs already I have invited to games and just waited, At the time both GMs were not playing games already. While one went away the other started a non-league game (who can see in the player profiles what they are doing). At least have the decency to decline the request or send a message.

www.hockey-leagues.com/league.cfm?lid=329Please ignore any data that is prior to today's date...that is an error in inputting the schedule....but will be accurate once those three games are played. (And the Schedule isn't completely done yet.....and isn't accurate to what days everyone will play. Just play your games and I will just edit the schedule for the day the game was played.) It will be necessary for GMs to email the results to me when the games are completed. Eric, should there be some parameters as to how many games a team should play a week?
