OT: [Xbox 360] Official PIT Board GM Connected League for NHL 13 (All discussion here)

[Epic Neal Time]

The main board has a HFboards GM Connected league for NHL 13 set up and it's full. So I'm wondering if anyone wants to start one solely for our board? I'm interested in a league on the Xbox 360. Comment with the team you'd like to take over.

When selecting a team, please leave your gamertag along with your team of choice in your post.

For more information on the new GM Connected mode in NHL 13, check out this link:

I'm still on the fence about getting the game, but if I do I think I'd be in.

[Epic Neal Time]

Awesome. Hopefully enough people will be willing. 30 user controlled teams isn't a necessity, but it'd sure as hell be more fun.

[Dylonus]

I'd do so, but if it's strictly 360, I can't.

[Epic Neal Time]

It doesn't cross platforms.

Find a custom Geno cover.

So, not only has the game improved (hopefully a lot with this true skating, as they're claiming it's their largest step in improving the game since adding the stick controls), Geno will be an absolute monster, along with Neal, and some of you are seriously saying you don't want to own it simply because Giroux made the cover? lol

Anyway, I'm on the fence about this. Usually, things like this don't go down well, because after a while, users just stop participating in the leagues. It would be awesome if we had 30 users and we ALL stuck to it. Also, another issue I see is every last one of us will want to be the GM of the Pens, add to the fact it won't feature a fantasy draft, because "it didn't want the barrier of entry to be a tedious 45-round draft", which people like us would LOVE, I think (at least, I would), and I'm not sure a Pens board for this would be the way to go.

Eh, no risk in trying right? I'll keep up with it for sure. AND I'll take the Hawks, thank you.

[Mama Malkin]

Yeah I'm down for Xbox360. I know a few other guys that would play too.

Awesome! I don't think I'm fit to run this so anyone who would like to can go ahead and make an official thread. Or we could just turn this into the official thread. I could edit the first post with the teams and who's claimed them. Remember, it's for Xbox 360.

[Beauner]

I'll take Cbus

Same here, if it were PS3 I would be down. Especially now that I have internet again now that I live off base!

You could try to start a PS3 one.

[BigBenSF]

I'm new around here and haven't posted in this forum yet, but I do own a 360 and am planning on buying the game so I would love to be in this!

Would love to be the Sharks

[Kunitziwa]

Sign me up for the Blues

[Pitt's Best #87 #66]

I'll take the Oilers and leave someone else Pittsburgh.

[Epic Neal Time]

If possible, leave your gamertag with your team selection in your post. That way everything's in one place. Edit your post with your gamertag if you've already selected a team.

[Mama Malkin]

Well I guess I will be that guy. I'll take Pittsburgh.

Gamertag is SolidSnake3516


On a side note, if there are some good players here it might be pretty cool to get a EA Sports Hockey League team together too.
