What the heck I just had the weirdest thing happen. I was playing BaP on the Vancouver Giants against Prince George. Brendan Gallagher got a penalty, and Brendan Jensen (VAN goalie) goes to the bench at the same time the PG goalie does. But then as Jensen is going on the bench, Mark Segal (other VAN goalie) jumps off the bench without wearing a helmet. Unfortunately I couldn't see what would happen next as my team got the puck. I'll put up a video in a bit.

edit: And now Segal is the goalie playing. I don't even what?

edit2: Ok now I'm totally confused. This happened in the middle of the second, and now I'm looking at the post game stats, and Jensen only played 1:49, compared to Segal's 57:55. So did Jensen go on in releif of Segal (who had given up like 5-6 goals already) then decide while play was going on, "Nah don't feel like playing anymore" and go to the bench? I'm so confused by what happened this game.

I have just started simming on BeAGM and i am actually finding lots of little improvements. Same basic problems still exist (I mean why the f*A@&*()&&*( can't I just edit my lines during the off season? Really...) but the increased injuries, although some have complained, make it far more realistic and more difficult...the trade offers are less ridiculous...and it takes longer to sim through everything which seemed like a bad thing at first but I realized it just makes it much more hands on...now i can't get away with just bombing through a couple of seasons I actually have to take my time ala EHM.

Only thing that pisses me off is you can't quit during a game now. Yes I know, now you can't cheat, but sometimes I start a game and realize i've made a lineup error and want to quit right away and I cant...booooo

Got bored, so i wrote out my Be a GM roster...

Vancouver Canucks, Be A GM NHL12

Record as of February 2nd 2012 update: 31-15-4 Lead the NHL with 66 Points.

NOTE: This is my 'fun' Be A GM with NHL Cap OFF, I decided to play this until the Jets Get their Jerseys as well as Ice Caps Jerseys, as well I do sim and play games based on the competitiveness of the opposition based on record.

I trade them at the end of contract. Kesler bumps up to first line.

You can get quite a bit for the two in a trade.. I have like 3 Solid first rounder prospects in a growth season in the CHL and Two more first round drafts picks in the top 5. Traded sturm + 7th rounder + unsigned polasek for a first rounder. Gotta love that haha.

I wouldn't sign Daniel to a 10M. Maybe offer him 8.5M. If you gotta go higher i mean, sign him then trade him. He's good, but not worth chuncking out that much cap.

also 110th in ranked OTP all-time (all positions besides goalie)

anyone else here look at that kind of stuff?

Just absolutely stole an untouched Edler for 150 pucks :) But I was that close to getting TJ Oshie for 300. But I had just bought some contract cards and only had 314 left, and someone scooped me with 5 seconds left.

Decent-ish team now

im finding be a gm actually better now that i have gotten used to the simming engine it actually runs quicker than nhl 11 allowing for a quicker season

however when i go to the trade screen and i sort all players by potential or trade value or something else if i go to a different team it never stays the same way i have to resort them its easier to go through the contracts screen to find players i want

trading still seems a bit off when getting offered the same trade although it doesn't happen as much as nhl 11 it does still happen about 1/2 the time and actually the trade offers i do get seem more realistic this year and less crap being offered

I'm back baby. After being down out of Online for around a week and a half, I finally have online back.

Bought a new PS3, and had to phone Sony because my account was already activated on 5 PS3's. They deactivated them for me, but they said it's a one time thing. It's nice to know my account is only on my PS3 though.
