DollarAndADream Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Think its all about homer glasses lol the guy with a Tavaris name is complaining about Tavaris not being rated higher. Then the guy above named Garrison said that Garrison isn't rated high enough lol I'll follow the trend Mayray isn't rated high enough, he used to be a 81 now he's a 80 WTF! Now I'm not even getting the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabbyTheAwesome Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I find it funny how you misspell Tavares even though the guy's name has it there and also everyone is talking about him. But yeah, I'm not going to really complain about the overalls. I want to look at the game and check out each attribute first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niloc009 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 So the OVR is not even an accurate indication of how good a player is so what you're telling me is the OVR means nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrison Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm not really understanding how it works. Complete players get better ratings while specialty players get less which makes sense, so the tough guys get low ratings and defensive defensmen and 2 way forwards get higher overall. That still doesn't clarify why Ovie is higher than Malkin ( Ovie had a BRUTAL season for all who didn't know) and Phaneuf is one of the best d-men in the game (everyone knows he sucks.)

The Ghost of Tom Joad Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Edler is at 88?? God damn, he is going to be ridiculously expensive to re-sign after that first season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DollarAndADream Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Grinders are the guys who go out there and play with their heart out. They dig out pucks along the boards and play a chippy kind of game. Tough Guys are the one who just bang and are there to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnTavares Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The overall is a representation of about how good they are as an all around player. You should be looking at their attributes as you build your team anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnTavares Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Compared to NHL 12: - Slap shot power +1 - Wrist shot accuracy -3 - Acceleration +1 - Agility +1 - Balance +2 - Endurance +3 - Speed +1 - Hand-Eye +1 - Passing +1 - Puck Control +1 - Aggressiveness +2 - Body Checking +2 - Durability +1 - Strength +3 - Offensive Awareness -2 - Defensive Awareness +1 - Faceoffs +1 - Shot Blocking +2 - Stick Checking +3 But, OMFG, WTFBBQ?!?!?!??!?!?! his OVR, a completely meaningless, arbitrary number, went down 3 ?!?!?!?!??!?!

Mayray2112 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 is a small step below talents like Stamkos and Giroux. His overall talent is much more significant than an 85 rating in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n00bxQb Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 So most of his stats went up but his overall dropped down by 3 points? Tavares can play both ends of the ice and excels offensively and is a small step below talents like Stamkos and Giroux. His overall talent is much more significant than an 85 rating in this case.

DollarAndADream Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I've seen Tavares play quite a bit, and I don't think his skating is that bad. I've seen him use the burst of speed much like Stamkos or Giroux does too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrison Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Why hasn't Crosby been on a cover of an NHL game yet? Is it because a) He is the best player He is already signed to a large amount of contracts off the ice or c) He is the most loved but quite possibly the most hated upon much like Lebron James for Basketball fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
