I can speak about the PC game.  I found it (in general) to be quite good.  On
my old computer (386/20) it was playable but slow.  On our new 486/33 it is
very nice.  There are a few minor gripes, but a few problems are to be expec-
ted.  For example, they don't waive off icing calls when a player could have
easily touched the puck.  At times, when I make good passes trying to set up
for a breakaway, the defensive player and the player for whom the pass was
intended both let the puck go...all the way past all of the lines and icing
is called.  The offsides and two line pass calls are done correctly, though.

Occasionally, after a stoppage of play, the ensuing face-off isn't done where
it should be.  But that's a nit pick as far as I'm concerned.

There are too many penalties, too--even when you choose the official which
supposedly "lets 'em play."  The computer plays a smart game in penalty
situations, nearly always clearing when short-handed as you would expect.
There are *way* too many 5-on-3 skating situations.

Scoring is tough.  Even if I take the Sharks and let the computer control the
Pens, I rarely get more than a 3-1 score (or something similar to it).  In the
last few games I've played, I've kept tabs on power play efficiencies.  The
5-on-4 was successful about 8% of the time, and even a 5-on-3 was a success
less than 20% of the time.  As I said, scoring is tough--but for some reason,
shutouts are very difficult to obtain.

If you let the computer "coach" your team, it seems to always do a line change
at the worst time!  I've had 3-on-1 breaks where the computer decides that it's
time for a line change.  When that happens, the player you (supposedly) control
will dump the puck deep into the zone and automatically head for the bench.
Grrrrrrrrr.....

Also, it's not possible to change goalies.  According to a review I read about
the game, that capability was intended to exist (but was forgotten and the
playtesters didn't try to do it so the omission wasn't noticed.

Perhaps the most unrealistic aspect of the game was that no matter how hard I
tried, I couldn't get any of the Sharks players injured  :-).

Overall, I'd recommend it on a fast computer (386/40 or a 486).  I bought it
when I had the 386/20 and shelved it.  It's enjoyed a new (and long) life on
my hard drive since I obtained the 486.

	Hey!!!  How 'bout those Jets!!!! 

	The Jets are playing quite well since the "Goals for Goons"
trade; they had been playing OK leading up to that, where OK is better
than the dismal play they were doing in November.  

	I was initially disgusted by the trade of Olczyk for Tie Domi
and Kris King.  However, it seems to have been just the thing the Jets
needed as they have gone 3-1-1 since then.  Domi is faster than I
thought, and was coached by John Paddock (Jets' head coach) in
Binghamton.  King is a basic up and down winger who is one of the best
hitters in the NHL, which I didn't know.  Considering that we are
getting them for a player that we probably wouldn't want to sign for
the $ he wants at the end of the season, this looks like  a pretty
good deal.  

	Temmu Selanne should win the Calder trophy.  His performance
this year is better than either that of Juneau or Lindros (even if you
don't consider the hype that preceeded Lindros).  

	Don Cherry seems to have a thing about the Jets being
pushovers, which is not true.  The Jets are a small club, and that was
why Domi and King were acquired. However, the Jets aren't shrinking
violets.  Selanne has put solid hits on both Dave Manson and Bryan
Marchment in the last few games.  Keith Tachuk (sp) is not one to back
down from anyone, and will go out and get involved when his teammates
are being set upon.  Also, the fairly big Russian defensemen Bautin
and Ulanov seem to have got to the point where they are comfortable in
the league, and have started to hit people.  Thomas Steen, Randy
Carlyle, and MIke Eagles are all hard nosed sorts.  Where are the
shrinking violets?  Yes, the Jets are small.  Yes, they tend not to
initiate the hits, but that is changing.  The Jets are tough,  and
they can take what the other teams in their division, and the league
dish out.  This is the sort of team that Cherry should like, or at
least not dislike.  I can't argue against the Jets having alot of
non-Canucks, becuase they do.  If that's what Cherry objects to, too
bad.  

	Go Jets!

Iafrate did win the hardest shot competition in the all star game while
he was with the Leafs.  Al MacInnis, however, did not compete in the
hardest shot competition that year (I believe he was at the all star
game but declined to compete in the hardest shot competition).  Al was a
close second in one of the skating competitions that year as well.

According to a Melrose interview yesterday, Wayne will play with
Toni Granato and Mike Donnelly.  Corey Millen (the normal center on
the Munchkin line) is nicked up right now.  Melrose said that Wayne 
plays better with faster wings.  While both are fast (especially
Donnelly), neither has the gun or physical presence Sandstrom 
possesses.  I would stick Sandstrom and Donnelly with Wayne and
move Toni with Kurri and Robitaille.  That way, each line has
two skilled guys and an mucking cheap-shot artist (although the
way Lucy has been playing recently, you might have to include him 
in that latter category).

Subject: Fight over the Oilers
Organization: University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 1993 03:56:40 GMT



I don't know how well people outside Edmonton are aware over
the feud between the Oiler's owner (Peter Pocklington) and the
city of Edmonton, but things are getting pretty nasty.

Edmonton attendance is down this year. Of course the team has
been playing pretty lousy lately, and the economy has suffered.
Season ticket sales are down, and the most common reason given
for not renewing ticket packages is lack of money.

Peter Pocklington (aka 'Puck') wants to build a new arena (so he
could earn more money from the concessions). And if he doesn't
get community support, he is threatining to move the team. (This
threat worked earlier, when he managed to get a new baseball
stadium built for his team.)

(In order to move the team, I believe that Puck would first
have to try to find ownership that is willing to keep the francise
in town, according to NHL rules. Puck claims that there are no
potential buyers, since he was not able to find a buyer for
the Edmonton Trappers, the local baseball francise. Someone
should explain the difference between a minor league baseball
team and a major league hockey team.)

In the meantime, a sports columnist for the Edmonton Journal
(I don't know who it was; I rarely read the journal)  has encouraged
fans to write letters encouraging Puck to sell the team. So far,
80% of the people writing in have agreed.

Although people acknowledge the problems involved in running a
small-market team, they are fed up with Puck selling the best
players in order to earn money for his own pocket. Trading vetran
players isn't bad; just make sure you get good players for them.
(or at least put the money earned back into the Oiler's organization.)

Will a buyer step up and buy the team, should the need arise? Or
will the Oilers move? And how much is the attendance problems related
to people's low regard for Pocklington?

One of my most unfavorite memories is of a Canucks-Oilers game
about 5/6 years ago [maybe more]

Imagine: It's late in the game, the Canucks are leading 3-2 over the
dreaded Oilers and we haven't won very often in Edmonton.

Lars Lindgren gets the puck in the Canucks end to the right of the
Goalie and decides to shoot the puck around the back boards to clear.

He winds up and lets loose a real cannon of a shot that goes into the
top left corner of the net over the Canuck goalies right shoulder.

I cry. Sob.

Maybe not quite what you had in mind, but it sure looked like he
skated in on his own goalie and scored.

The follow-ups, as posted, made it sound a lot better than the original
story. But Still.. This is a disease. It is going to have to be a factor.
You have to wonder what the long term results will be. 
The bigger questions start to arise when you consider both Gretz and
Mario with MAJOR medical problems.
